Average amount of driving a year is 14k miles... 236k miles averages out to 16 years of ownership. So essentially you're saving $75 bucks a year. It's definitely some savings but not a tonI disagree, at least from a financial standpoint. For example, we drove the Prius 236,000 miles. Let’s say we got 3 MPG less over those miles:
236,000 at 47 MPG = 5,021 gallons at $3.50 per gallon is $17,574
236,000 at 44 MPG = 5,363 gallons at $3.50 per gallon is $18,772.
$1,200 just by learning how to drive a Hybrid as it is designed to optimize fuel economy. I’ll choose that every time.
(fuel prices based on what it was and the insane prices today!)
