Battery recycling shatters the myth of EV waste – ET Auto

Baua Electric

In the US, it takes about 25,500 miles (41,000 kilometers) of driving for an EV to break even, according to a Bloomberg NEF analysis. That’s enough to shorten an average EV’s environmental breakeven time with an internal combustion vehicle to less than 15,000 miles. Closing the loop brings the total CO2 savings to 80%.
