Actually, the cars the pollute the least in their making, running and disposal are the Kia Rio, Hyundai Accent, the latest Renault world car (name escapes me at the moment).
When people start looking at TOTAL energy use (and pollution) they will find they are underinformed. I agree, long term viability of hybrids is a question mark, thats why many are watching the 1st gen Prius and Insight to see how they run after 100K miles. Also hybrid efficiency declines dramatically when it gets cold. Which means they are more effective in areas of high temps. I see future "tuners" finding 3rd party batteries and electric motors to 'plug in' to their hybrid to pump it up. If they are reliable, they can be a great source of torque for towing.
