Hybrid almost certainly has a substantially lower total cost of ownership due to lower fuel costs and reduced brake wear. I think fuel efficiency standards ought to essentially mandate them.

Maybe but it's much more expensive upfront (3000 euros or so). And the total fuel cost depends on the distance you travel and your speed.
