Where I am the charging infrastructure is terrible and electricity prices are bad. I was considering a hybrid but I guess if it's no better I'll just grab a regular ICE
It's sort of a flawed opinion. If you're never charging at home and doing a lot of driving, a hybrid won't make much difference and might cost more. If you're conscientious about charging when you can and mostly drive within range of your battery's capacity, it can be almost as effective as full electric. Stats indicate most PHEV owners use the the same way you would use an ICE, car, which is more expensive and a bit of a waste.
More than the charging infrastructure it is the city infrastructure: when you have condos built without any planning 50 or more years ago, even if you pass a law that every home need to have a charging station in these condos it is physically impossible to do it. Charging infrastructure comes after you solve the problem where to put 70 or more charging station for every condo in the district.
