By PluginIndia In this article and video, we show the real truth on how Petrol and Diesel vehicles cause far more air pollution compared to electric vehicles. Some even say that it pollutes even more than a diesel or petrol burning car. Refining oil takes a huge amount of energy and generates even more pollution.

This is too long a trip for most BEV trucks (except one, at least – we’ve seen the Tesla Semi do similar mileage ). Nikola is making trucks now, and has delivered far more trucks than Tesla has delivered Semis , both BEV and FCEV (though it had to recall all of its BEVs last year ). But all of that is a long way off.
