    It would be on thing to show that a Priuis is no match for a average small compact car like a Kia Seat or similar

    but the argument is all so badly slanted
    The battery uses small amounts of nickel as the battery is NIMh (nickel methyl hydride) with nickel equaling less than 30% of the battery
    It recycles well easily with no more issues than recycling iron
    The price premium for the Pruis is too much for most joe soaps doing 10,000 mile s in a year

    however a large distance user going in and around cities with some high way work doing 20,000 miles a year would save alot with a Pruis

    The Pruis will also do easily 150,000 miles as the battery alone is guaranteed to do 150,000 miles
    But no matter what way you run the numbers the Hummer would always use more oil to make more oil to run and more oil overall and the article uses fake mathematics to prove 2+2=5
