From a lifecycle view, this additional carbon burden is offset compared to the combustion engine vehicle during the use phase, as EVs rack up zero-emission miles that eventually pull the EV ahead of the ICE. This will be made possible, among other things, by the consistent avoidance and reduction of CO 2 emissions in the supply chain.
