On The Road: Green Car Drive-Off: EV vs. Hybrid vs. Gas

I got my email notification of the latest issue of home power magazine this morning. They have an interesting article (available to non-subscribers) that shows the cost to drive 15,000 miles in an EV vs Hybrid (50 mpg) vs Efficient Gas (30 mpg) vehicle as well as the CO2 output from all of the above for multiple locations (since electricity is made in different ways in different parts of the country). The results are quite interesting and IMO its great to see some quantified numbers.
