Electric cars have long been criticized by independent environmental researchers since the promised natural purity of these vehicles, to put it mildly, are too exaggerated. The thing is that electric cars consume energy generated in mainly in thermal and hydroelectric power plants, the environmental friendliness of which, without a doubt, a big question.
For example, specialists at the London-based company Engaged Tracking analyzed how many greenhouse gases are produced when production and then exploitation of the world praised all over the world by Ilon A mask of Tesla electric cars that are used instead of diesel and gasoline electric traction. It is the environmental friendliness of Tesla machines touted as the greatest achievement of these modern road vehicles.

However, as the study showed, the amount of greenhouse gases produced by the production of the Tesla electric car itself (in particular batteries) and fuel for it generally exceeds the same indicators for a conventional car with an internal engine combustion (almost one and a half times). It turns out that the “real breakthrough” in the modern automotive industry, which he so loudly declared Musk is nothing more than a marketing ploy. No wonder this ambitious billionaires are more considered a great marketer and advertiser than scientist, although Ilon positions himself precisely as a specialist: in ecology, space, computers, and even in anticipation of the future development of our society.
But here’s what Engaged analyst writes about Tesla machines Tracking Jonathan Harris:
In general, carbon dioxide emissions per vehicle of both Tesla Model S models is at least one and a half tons per year, which significantly more gasoline cars. And the same approximately the indicators of other car manufacturers, although, for example, the BMW i3 produces 1.3 tons of carbon dioxide per year. It turns out that the Tesla’s highly praised electric cars are the most environmentally dirty cars even among electric cars, not to mention about comparing them with conventional machines …
However, for megacities, any electric cars, especially buses on electric traction, anyway the only way out, so as not to kill the townspeople with deadly smog, although in general for the planet Earth – this is not the best environmental option …
