Could you ever go back to a gas engine only car?

I rented a VW Jetta during my last business trip to Boston - 2013 with 20K miles. I was surprised by the fact that it didn't seem as responsive as my C-Max.  The EV assisted acceleration is surprisingly spunky on the C-Max.  I found myself feeling that VW was sluggish.  

 

I am not suggesting that a C-Max is a performance car but I am considering having a racing stripe added to my silver beauty!

 

In the coming years I predict hybrids will be winning the day (if they aren't already) for commuter cars unless diesel, natural gas or full electric become viable and more efficient.  I think you'll see Ford learning much from this version and improvements will be short coming.
