5. The car battery is worse for the environment when the car eventually is disposed.

Worse than what? Worse than gas emissions during the lifetime of a gas car, or worse than no car at all? If it's worse than gas emissions, do you have a reference supporting this?

The batteries in a hybrid are HIGHLY toxic and can use more energy to recycle than a gas car uses over a significant portion of ITS LIFETIME. Hybrids are flawed technology.
