The hybridization of carbocation is sp2. For a carbocation to be formed, the carbon atom must lose one electron. Thus the carbon atom has three bonded pair of electrons and no lone electrons. In CH+3CH3+, for example, the carbon has only three sigma bonds. Thus it is sp2 sp2hybridized. Since the fourth pair of electrons is nonexistent, it is impossible to be sp3sp3 hybridized.
