Those more concerned with the climate crisis are asking a bigger question: what does this all mean for the planet? Gas-powered cars, hybrids and EVs all emit roughly the same amount of pollution to manufacture, until you get to producing the battery. Fully electric cars use large batteries made of materials that require heavy mining. And that would still mean less climate pollution on the road overall. And fully electric cars won’t be truly “green” until the energy that charges them comes from renewable sources, like wind and solar.

PLUG ‘N’ PLAY The 2024 Toyota Prius Prime is the plugin-hybrid variant of the familiar fuel-sipper, with two motor-generators and a 13.6-kWh battery pack supporting a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle engine, providing a maximum system net of 220 hp. Photo: ToyotaDURING THE WEEK that I had the 2024 Toyota Prius Prime—the plug-in version of Toyota’s perennial fuel sipper—I was feeling oh so transcendent. To alert pedestrians to the approach of this often-silent hatchback, the Prius Prime generates an eerily human-sounding electronic tone, like a choir-loft of castrati, growing louder then fading away as the car picks up speed. Having lived to a biblical age, I’ve seen some crazy things. I’ve seen the Prius—whose owners were once mocked and scorned as virtue-signaling eco-weenies—become a counterargument for fossil fuel’s defenders opposing vehicle electrification.

Buying a used car is a risk but gap coverage and a warranty make me feel better about that risk. When I started looking for a used car, I weighed everything I wanted in a car, and the biggest factor in my decision was cost. But I also know that getting a used car is one of the best choices I can make for the environment. Tax credits for used electric cars are worth up to $4,000The tax credits offered for electric cars have varied over the years, but the most recent big change came in August 2022, and it came with both upsides and downsides. Most of the tax credits for new electric cars only apply to cars assembled in the US.

The Japanese manufacturing giant said Wednesday that its operating income would grow 10% to a record 3 trillion yen, equivalent to about $22.2 billion at the current exchange rate, in the fiscal year through March 2024. The reason is a 10% recovery in vehicle deliveries as semiconductor supplies normalize following pandemic shortages.
