The switch to electric LDVs reduces vehicle emissions by about 9 to 22 million metric tons of CO 2 equivalent in the year 2035 based on a 2035 power generation mix. The specific reduction depends on improvements in internal combustion engine (ICE) technologies, as well as changes in the electric power generation fuel mix.
