According to the Global Greenhouse Gas Emissions Data from the Environment Protection Agency (EPA), this sector alone accounts for a staggering 23 per cent of such emissions and 18 per cent of all man-made emissions. In addition to climate implications, transportation substantially contributes to air pollution, resulting in approximately three million premature fatalities annually. Moreover, the rising cacophony of traffic presents a grave environmental and health hazard.
In the face of these challenges, electric vehicles (EVS) emerge as a compelling panacea. Studies indicate that, on average, EVs emit 50-60 per cent less carbon dioxide per kilometre driven compared to their conventional counterparts. This promising data underscores the potential of EVs to drastically curtail urban carbon emissions and enhance air quality, thereby nurturing a more sustainable trajectory.
