They (my parents) have decided the Kona and Niro are too small (the A4 Avant has always been "too small" after their previous car).
Honestly, he drives maybe 40-50 km on a regular day so an EV would be perfect for him. But they take a few driving trips a year, e.g. California, Edmonton, Kelowna, and I think that's where the range hesitancy comes from. That's despite me arguing that they have my mom's Elantra for those trips - they like the higher CUV driving position for longer drives. I think the thinking is that the PHEV becomes my mom's car in a few years, my dad gets a pure EV, and they still have the PHEV for longer trips.
Model Y: he actually ordered a Model 3 last fall but rejected it on delivery due to various quality issues, and I'm not sure he's ready to give Tesla another go yet. Plus he hated the touchscreen stuff.
I was thinking of getting him to test drive the XC60 Recharge over the weekend.
