Misguided and ill-informed

It's true that at the current renewable energy penetration of the grid, making an EV generates much more carbon emissions than making an ICE car. However, the carbon emissions from operating an EV are much smaller than those from operating its ICE counterpart even at the current grid emission intensity. Overall, taking the cradle-to-grave lifecycle, an EV will generate 28-64% lower emissions than an ICE car in the US. This is from a study by Ford Motor in 2022 :)
