Electric Cars On Dirty Power - Is It Worth It???

Mining Lithium, Cobalt etc.
Energy used? Slave labor, open pit mines.
High tire n brakes usage due to massive battery vehicle weight?
Factor in degradation of roads n hi-ways from x2 weight (repaving taxes).
Factor in the massive battery grave yards and non renewable waste dumps in 10 years or so!
It doesn’t end there!

I think you forgot the refining of the fuel.

I mean you have to destill the crude oil, get the gas fraction and than you have to make sure that the Octane Nr. fits.

Yesss the numbers don't lie! 😍😤

I love when numbers just flat out tell the story! Thank you for the great breakdown.

you missed the transmission losses, etc. Plus, you have to include the CO2 that goes into manufacturing the battery. Poor job, do it again.

My gas powered smart fortwo with no fancy gas-saving batteries or features of any kind gets up to 60mpg if I drive efficiently with tricks like pulse-and-glide; usually around 40mpg in the city though.

The math that really blew my mind last year was when I calculated the number of years the average consumer of animal products tortures animals every year.

I admit you blew my mind :-)
