87 miles all electric) minimizes petroleum consumption, minimum lifecycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are achieved with a mix of low-range (~25 miles) and mid-range (40-50 miles) PHEVs. kW h, Li-ion battery prices below $590/kW h, or nominal discount rates below 11%. Relative to our base case of $3.30/gal
