Modern oils and modern cylinder lining makes this a non-issue.
You’re more likely to have a modern car with bad rings as they chase fuel economy numbers. Honestly, a hybrid is a very solid choice anymore. Lifts the burden of the gas engine having to be hyper-efficient and eases the extreme tolerances required to get there.
Shame that there are very few fun hybrids, crazy expensive things don’t count.
Infiniti made an m35h that actually had more power than the gas version and it got better mileage. Granted, it is a porky sedan, but that thing would still haul its fat ass.

We’re defining fun very differently. My prius has ridiculous low end torque thanks to those electric motors.
