I’m a little confused by this, so a pure electric vehicle with no emissions at all, and a hydrogen powered car*, where the emission is basically water vapour, pay twice that of a plug-in hybrid, which does have a conventional ICE, albeit one tuned to best efficiency?

That seems to be the wrong way round to me.

* probably, overall the ‘cleanest’ way but completely hampered by the lack of infrastructure.
