    There needs to be plug-in hybrids in this type of analysis.

        That’s a regular hybrid, not a plug-in hybrid.

          Would the difference, even considering a somewhat larger battery, be that significantly different compared to an EV or an ICE?

            The ICE would only occasionally run, while at the same time you don’t have to have such a big battery. That could be greener than any of the three options listed.

              Any vehicle with two power sources is, by definition, exceptionally inefficient and therefore, unnecessarily expensive. I personally am eagerly awaiting safe hydrogen storage so vehicles can truly be zero emission. Toyota just announced they’re close; GM tried for decades and gave up. We’ll see…

                Yes, hydrogen cars in the long avoids both. No ICE nor giant battery.
