MIT researchers have conducted a comprehensive study comparing the environmental impact of electric vehicles (EVs) and traditional gasoline-powered cars, focusing on factors beyond just emissions. The findings challenge common assumptions by examining the full lifecycle—from manufacturing to disposal—of both vehicle types. The analysis highlights how regional energy sources, battery production, and driving habits play a critical role in determining which option is truly greener. Results suggest that the environmental benefits of EVs may not be as straightforward as widely believed, prompting a closer look at sustainability claims in the auto industry.
