Hybrid cars have batteries significantly smaller than any fully BEV. Sure, it takes that long for a BEV, but 120V should charge a hybrid to full much faster.
Even for a BEV, you can usually add 40-50 miles of charge overnight on a 120V plug. Not great for a roadtrip, but plenty for most folks daily commutes. In the example of an evacuation, it’s insufficient of course.
