Would an All-Electric yaris be cheaper in the long run?

now a diesel-hybrid yaris would rock, imo, it'd also probably be around 16-18k$ or more, when all is said and done :\

I cannot identify a single true or accurate statement in your post. Rather than dissect and refute it, I encourage you to spend the time and effort to educate yourself properly, from proper sources. This is also the perfect opportunity for you to learn how to investigate the funding source of what you read.

Follow the money to find the (un)truth.

I'm sorry you cannot see the reality of the situation. If a full-on electric car could exist at a reasonable price, it would. Do you not agree? Battery technology has a ways to go before it is anything close to realistic for electric-only cars. Even the total cost of ownership on a Prius outweighs that of a Yaris.
I find no reason to defend myself, but have you done an ounce of research on this matter? Put your pride and arrogance away and see the situation for what it is, not what it could be.
