As a BYD investor, I'm upset to see them waste so much money on dead technologies like PHEVs/EREVs. As the economies of scale disappear for ICE, so too will they disappear for hybrids that depend on the existence of ICE. Swapping out CO2 for other toxins like ozone and nitrogen oxides is not a solution.

A study by researchers at the University of Texas found that in general, use of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) can lead to an increase in ozone during nighttime hours (due to decreased scavenging from both vehicles and EGU stacks) and a decrease in ozone during daytime hours.

For passenger vehicles, the State SIP Strategy includes actions to increase the penetration of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) and ZEVs, including battery-electric and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. emissions by more than 20%. emissions by more than 20%.

ARB staff developed this strategy using a multi-pollutant scenario planning tool ( Vision 2.0 ) that quantifies changes in ozone and PM 2.5 Additionally, ARB would consider new standards to increase the sales of ZEVs and PHEVs beyond the levels required in 2025 to ensure future emission reduction, climate, and petroleum targets are met.

UCS advocates relentlessly for cleaner gasoline vehicles and dismisses plug-ins of all sorts, the Sierra Club strikes deals with Ford to promote a few thousand gasoline-dependent hybrids in exchange for advertising dollars, and the NRDC jumped on the biofuels bandwagon just as the cost of corn ethanol became impossible to ignore.
