especially if you do not bother to read the link:

so once again its the word of an anonymous internet poster versus the word of a research-focused nonprofit who first reported the negative impact of generation source on e-vehicle CO2e.
with all due respect your posts here stink of cognitive dissonance.
because in your lifetime, driving a hybrid or e car purchased new will never make up for the fact that the used car is already here and therefore does not need the energy required to produce it
the assumptions and false premises in that response made me smile.
i personally have zero need to drive. my preference is always to walk or bike and i have walked more miles than i have driven. my main goal in purchasing this
used vehicle was to reduce the miles my partner puts on her prius.
thanks for playing.
