EV MYTH ONE: Manufacturing EVs is just as bad for the environment as ICEVs. It makes sense that during their usable life, electric vehicles are better for the environment than their ICEV counterparts, as they aren’t powered by fossil fuels. Overall, the emissions from the manufacturing of EV parts are about the same or less than ICEVs.

EV MYTH ONE: Manufacturing EVs is just as bad for the environment as ICEVs. It makes sense that electric vehicles are better for the environment than their ICEV counterparts, as they aren’t powered by fossil fuels. If it’s manufactured on a ‘dirty’ power grid it becomes a major source of emissions over the EV lifecycle.
