That's the thing, EVs are not the "clear choice" unless you choose to ignore the diverse practical realities. Better propaganda won't change that. Many households I know with an EV also have an ICE to explicitly hedge the cases where an EV is objectively a poor or suboptimal choice. For households that don't need or want to own two vehicles, hybrids serve much the same purpose. EVs are strictly worse in some regions and for some people.
As a simple example, there are no EVs that serve the regional markets where a Subaru is the inexpensive car of choice. Those long-range, high-clearance AWD vehicles are not some weird lifestyle flex in the markets where half the people drive one, they fill a concrete requirement that EVs currently can't fill.
They are almost all Teslas, and they usually use their SUV (the ICE always seems to be an SUV) for roadtrips. Seasonality matters as well, EVs are not a great choice for long trips over the mountains in winter.
