Re: Estimation of CO2 emissions with first full charge of EV.



See here for some figures:

http://fp.alexterrell.plus.com/web/Energy/PHEV.htm

In the USA, a 1 ton EV (or PHEV on battery) would emit about 120g of
CO2 per km. In the UK, about 62g, and in France about 10g.

An equivelant Audi A2 1.2 tdi emits 81g. A typical US car would emit
about 300g per km.

Based on this, your analysis is partly correct.

PHEV manufacturers should aim for European markets, where gas prices
are several times higher, daily driving distances are less, and
domestic electricity plugs supply at 240 Volts.
