Ni-MH ~~is~~ was also in a lot of hybrid cars.

Are they still making NiMH hybrid packs?

Lithium is far superior

I don't know in general. I was recently shopping for a UX 250h and I know they only just switched to lithium for the 2025 model with the nx name change.

Toyota switched the camry hybrid from NiMH to lithium for the 2020 model year.

In my head I meant hybrid cars on the road, not necessarily in new production.
