| 1 | James Bond to be more 'feminist', paired with post-wall womanYes, they're more fuel efficient if you don't know what engine braking is, and seeing as I manage to regularly get 45 mpg with my 1.4L Civic in the city (even higher on motorways), battery powered car peaking in the high 40's is laughable and really doesn't have a selling point to me or anyone who knows how to drive properly. Like I said, if you're having trouble with fuel efficiency, 90% if the time it's the fault of the driver. So while the values you are showing are nice, they only really hig… | /r/TheRedPill | 04/09/15 09:55 PM |
| 1 | James Bond to be more 'feminist', paired with post-wall womanOh please. Fact remains that if you drive a reasonable car normally, there's really no difference between that an a Prius lugging its' fat battery around. ... Hell if you're mainly doing motorway driving the Prius is objectively worse. False. The Prius is objectively more efficient than conventional cars, both in the city and on the highway, both according to the EPA and fuelly's data on the Prius, Civic, and Corolla - note that the Prius' fuel efficiency bell curve peaks in the high 40s, while … | /r/TheRedPill | 04/09/15 02:37 PM |
| 0 | James Bond to be more 'feminist', paired with post-wall womanThe batteries were PREVIOUSLY bad for the enviornment because they were Nickel Hydride batteries. If I may, nickel-metal hydride batteries were NEVER anywhere near as bad for the environment as they were made out to be. Most of it arose from an article from the Daily Mail, which was retracted in full eight year ago after it was pointed out that the environmental damage being attributed to Prius battery production was both inflicted and cleaned up decades before the Prius even existed. As per lif… | /r/TheRedPill | 04/09/15 02:29 PM |
| 1 | James Bond to be more 'feminist', paired with post-wall womanThe CO2 emissions from shipping the Prius parts around the world isn't offset during the lifecycle of the car. False. The contribution of shipping to the environmental impact of the Prius is actually minimal, and the environmental impact of battery manufacturing is vastly overshadowed by the reduction in impact enabled by efficiency. On a lifecycle basis, they inflict 35% less emissions and use 35% less energy compared to a comparable conventional car. | /r/TheRedPill | 04/09/15 02:14 PM |
| 1 | James Bond to be more 'feminist', paired with post-wall womanEven if you define environmental impact in terms of ecosystem diversity loss, harm to human health, and resource quality loss, hybrid cars are still better for the environment than normal cars (as are electric cars). The overwhelming majority of any car's environmental impact, hybrid or not, is inflicted in operations, not manufacturing, so fuel efficiency is the single variable most strongly correlated with environmental impact. As well, the amount of energy needed to account for end of life tr… | /r/TheRedPill | 04/09/15 02:13 PM |
