Disciple.... i wouldnt take the headline figures from this without knowing the basis..... i.e. how many years or miles were the comparisons made on and did they use cradle to grave figures on both the the Ev and IC basis....the 144 figure for the diesel used as comparison sound like the figure quoted in marketing literature, which is running emissions only. I bet every gram of CO2 produced for the EV (including Li miners lighting their farts for fun) was included in that number.
This looks like a loaded study published by an alternative future energy option that doesnt want to lose its research budgets.
