My government just added a controversial extra tax on EVs because they tear up the roads and cause additional particles, because they are really heavy and most of them have a better than usual torque.
You can really see how road quality went to shit after EVs became mainstream.
Making batteries is also a really ugly business and far from environmental.
I can't find anything on such a tax?
I feel like there has been an uptick in pro oil bots in the past week. Oil is a pretty ugly business too? What is wrong with you people.
Bio gas and diesel are also renewable.
If you are a moron, ya, it is.
With average EU energy mix total carbon footprint of a biogas car is still only 3/4 of an equivalent electric vehicle after 10 years of use.
Additional weight of the vehicle and the costly battery production matters.
With average US east coast energy mix the EVs carbon footprint would be double that of a biogas car after 10 years of use.
You are a mouthpiece, I'm going to assume everything you say is a lie or grossly misrepresented. Post your sources, bootlicker.
