A PHEV would likely be super reliable, given your mileage needs. Outside trips, you would be only using the EV part of the car. No stress on the internal combustion engine. On trips, would be a regular ICE.
If you can find inventory, a Toyota Rav4 PHEV would likely be the sweet spot. Great reputation and reliable, and the SUV-style is honestly terrific for a family of 4.
Kind of expensive, but you do get what you pay for in this world.
My guess is that there is a >90% chance you would not need to do anything except refill the washer fluid, replace tires, and add gas on the occasional trips for the first 50,000 miles.
