The "range extender" version isn't an ev, it's a hybrid.

It's not a hybrid, it's an EREV. There is a small gasoline generator that can recharge the batteries while driving to extend the range. This is very different from a hybrid which has a gasoline engine that drives the drivetrain, and electric motors to drive the vehicle under low acceleration and for relatively short distances.
