That is part of the debate. Just how "green" is the Tesla? Nobody really knows other than it isn't as "green" as people like to think. I don't believe anybody would really care about that (or that the same statement applies to hybrids), except a portion of those who buy these cars (or hybrids) base a large part of the purchasing decision on the questionable ability to feel superior to anyone driving a conventional car. Since owners of these vehicles generally insist on comparing the morality of their car to that of conventional internal combustion vehicles they can expect their car's practicality and expense to be compared similarly.
