"Car and Driver: Are Hybrids Better for the Environment?"
What a crap article. It is not until the closing paragraph does the author say:
"But, just like the financial breakeven point at which a more expensive hybrid pays for itself in fuel savings, there is an environmental breakeven point, and it's generally not too far into the expected life of the vehicle."
Were any of these break-even points charted?
No.
