Environmental costs are often not shown on financial statements because the bearers of such costs can be either particular individuals or society at large, are often both non-monetary and problematic to quantify for comparison with monetary values.

For comparison purposes, the 2002 Toyota RAV4 EV plug-in electric car has a mpg(equivalent) of over 100; and a best possible air pollution index of 10.) With hydrogen as a fuel option, the car is so expensive and made in such limited numbers it has no MSRP and is not rated on the EPA Green Vehicle Guide for 2007 or 2008.

That way you have a fair basis of comparison, you know, apples to apples and all that jazz. I had surmised this in my 2002 car design thesis [link] even before anyone was talking about plug in series hybrids. Honda has probably sold more Civics in a year than the combined total of all 18 of those GM models.
