    For those interested, you may want to do a bit of homework. But then again most manufacturers have recalls on various issues.

    For the Greenies out there thinking about buying a Fully EV for the environment, this article is an interesting read

    Toyota has sold more than 240,000 hybrid vehicles since the original Prius arrived in 2001.

    “According to our calculations, those 240,000 hybrids have had the same impact on reducing CO2 as approximately 72,000 BEVs,” Callachor said.

    “Yet the volume of batteries we’ve used to produce these hybrid-electric vehicles is the same as we’d need for just 3500 BEVs.

    “In other words, we can say that the batteries needed for 3500 BEVs have been used to achieve the CO2 emissions reduction effect of 72,000 BEVs.

    “It means that HEVs are an extremely effective way of reducing carbon emissions today – and doing so at a comparatively affordable price.”

      What's never taken into account with plugin hybrids is how much owners never bother plugging them in.
      Regardless, claimants of EVs being bad for the environment never do an apples v apples comparison, by looking at oil from point of extraction

      • [Deactivated] on 22/01/2022 - 11:53

        Appears you have mis-read the article as the Toyota vehicles referred to in the article for the comparison against Full EV's are not plug-in hybrids (i.e. Toyota Prius)

        (A 4 year old long range model 3 will probably fit the criteria except the newness).

            I can has solar panels for free in about 5 years. Then I will get paid $500 per year for having them. That's bout right to cover an electric vehicular charge if I had one.

              Also don't forget 6.6kw (in Melbourne) only general 24kwh a day. You need to be at home for 2 days+ to full charge your batteries. Provided you don't use any of it for yourself.

                  24kwh a day on 6.6kwh system. 3kwh per hour. 14kwh use per 100kms for a model 3. Average distance driven in Australia is 11k/Kms a year which is 30kms a day. Sit on the solar charger for an hour+ a day just so you can pretend you drive for free. 11k/Kms a year is probably low end for a Tesla driver. You'd need to drive a lot more to make the cheaper energy price work.

                  You are another one with a smart obtuse facts.

    Are Electric Cars Really Better for the Environment? (Wall Street Journal)
    https://www.wsj.com/graphics/are-electric-cars-really-better…

    It takes ~32,000 KM for the Tesla to have paid back the carbon deficit they start with, compared with ICE cars. After that, the Tesla improves over the ICE with reduced emissions per / km

    What isn't discussed is the 540KG toxic Lithium Ion batteries per Tesla.

    While ICE batteries are small and largely recycled, lithium-ion batteries are enormous and recycled in only about 5 per cent of cases. The battery in Tesla’s fast sports car, the Model S, weighs 540kg and includes more than 7000 separate lithium cells.

    Most used lithium-ion batteries are buried in landfill, where they can easily catch fire and also leech toxic elements into the soil and water table. They can be melted down and the cobalt and nickel extracted but that smelting process is energy intensive and polluting in most countries.

    Avg Australian Car Sales are ~ 1M
    As the EV ages and the battery degrades to unusable (approx. 8 years), that will be 1M x 560KG toxic Lithium Ion batteries going to landfill each year

        I don't doubt climate change is real. Being on earth is like being in a big air tight room and they keep on removing the trees and adding people. At some point it is going to get hot and low on oxygen.

        The fact that driving a Tesla makes it alright to go on as business as usual is just Elon telling porkies.

        Elon bought $3bn of Bitcoin then claimed to not know about how environmentally damaging mining is? If he was a poor pensioner that didn't speak English. Elon could have walked into the software developer lab yelled out the question and got the crowd sourced answer in like under a minute.

          You're right, I should have said anthropogenic climate change. Climate change has been occurring for millions of years, far longer than man has been around. At the start of the last ice age the amount of co2 in the atmosphere was 10 times what it is now.
