Tesla has been hyping up the prospect of an electric pickup truck for a long time (you're looking at an artist's rendering above), but when can you expect to see it? You might have a clearer idea. As part of a call for feedback, Elon Musk has promised that the pickup will be made "right after" the Model Y crossover arrives between 2019 and 2020. We'd take that commitment with a grain of salt (remember how Tesla expected widescale Model 3 deliveries to start in 2017?), but it at least gives you an idea of what the EV maker is shooting for.

Maybe a hybrid - but those are a hard sell too. And I really don't want an SUV.
I don't suppose this is an area of expertise, that there might be a safety-prioritized hybrid AWD that you personally think is worth investigating?

I don't know.

Ford Fusion Hybrid is listed there but is actually front wheel drive.
Toyota RAV4 Hybrid has an all wheel drive variant, but it's an SUV.
Buick LaCrosse maybe? https://blog.caranddriver.com/eassist-returns-2018-buick-lacrosse-hybrid-raises-mpgs-lowers-the-price/ [caranddriver.com]

Huh, I had never seen the LaCrosse before. Thanks!
