I have one interesting question, that 80g/km carbon quote... where does he get that information from? Also, when quoting like for like, so the i3 has 0g/km but takes electricity that may (MAY) come from fossil fuels and therefore have an XXg/km part to it. What about fossil fuelled cars, so lets say my car outputs 200g/km right, was any co2/carbon created when processing the fuels to make the petrol? I bet there was! So I don't have accurate data, but lets say my car again does 200g/km co2, the company that made the petrol surely used electricity to make the fuel right, which might add XXg/km on top of the 200g/km still making electric a low emission fuel.
