This is from "Commercializing Plug-In Hybrids" (pdf), the current CalCars 24-slide presentation about PHEVs available along with other documents at CalCars Downloads. Agrees on environmental and economic benefits, though some presentations backtrack on that; says batteries need further development before commitment to mass-production.
