I just checked a Leaf versus a Prius C at 20,000 miles per year. Gas is 15% cheaper and purchase price is way less for the Prius C but the Carbon emissions are listed as 40% less for the Leaf in NY. And the grid is getting cleaner all the time.
.
Gas at $2/ gallonUS is way to cheap. At some point fossil fuel must become a world heritage commodity that is not "owned" by any one person or country. And must be carbon taxed to make those that waste it pay for the transition to renewables.
