2/ Electric cars and trucks are much cleaner than gasoline vehicles even when you account for battery manufacturing. #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis
3/ The extra emissions from EV manufacturing are erased after less than 21,000 miles for cars, and 17,500 miles for trucks. That's less than two years of average driving.
4/ #ElectricVehicles will get dramatically cleaner than gas cars and trucks as more renewable electricity generation comes online. By 2034, EV cars will be 15x more efficient than gas sedans, and over 25x more efficient than gas trucks.

5/ Note that the study understates EV benefits because it includes Plug-in hybrid EVs in the average (see page 20 "Emissions Rate Assumptions and Results by Subregion").
Better look at the most efficient #EVs to get a better idea of where we're headed.
