The costs and benefits of cars extend far beyond an individual driver to society as a whole. Studies estimate utilities might compensate car owners with $2,000-3,000 a year to "borrow" their storage capacity -- thereby helping to offset the incremental costs of plug-in hybrids. By then, theyll probably cost well under $1,000.
