My comment was only that you said the Prius has been a major catalyst for widespread adoption of electric cars.
Considering we don't yet have a widespread adoption of electric cars, and the Prius is a petrol electric hybrid, with almost non of the downsides of a proper electric car, I thought this was a dubious claim. You could argue the prius helped get us where we are now. You could also argue it will help hold us back from further progress as they try and milk that now dated technology for all it's worth.
The argument I was looking to avoid was the one about whether Elon Musk is a cunt or not. My input on this would probably not help sway opinions.

I agree on the difference, and that convincing people to plug a car in, rather than fill it up are very different in terms of barriers to entry. But I stand by my original point about changing the auto landscape.
Also all of what Stonehedge said.
