Reader mode on the article reveals the content. Your answer is on point though. WSJ a few months published a piece saying that electric cars have to run 20k miles before they take over ICE vehicles in emissions(less that is). This piece is just scaremongering though. It keeps on repeating in several ways that making electric vehicles is energy intensive
- c-swa 5y agoWhich is also kind of funny, considering I know people who’ve bought electric cars new and used- they’ve all surpassed 20k miles at a year and a half- two years. Most gas powered cars go well beyond 20k miles, and that would easily and dramatically increase their emissions.
- abc_lisper 5y agoYeah, not to mention electric cars are going to be made with even less energy like cold pressing the entire chassis from a sheet of metal, higher density batteries and recycling older batteries, where as gas cars have been the same in terms of mpg.
