Absolutely. Over the course of their lifetimes, EVs generate less than half of the greenhouse gas emissions of comparable gasoline-powered vehicles. This includes all of the resources used in manufacturing the vehicle and battery, and powering the vehicle.
Additionally, electricity in the U.S. keeps getting cleaner, meaning that these benefits will continue to grow in future years. Batteries can be reused for other purposes, and the minerals in batteries can be recycled almost infinitely. As EV manufacturing and battery technology continue to improve through innovative technologies, EVs will become more efficient to manufacture and operate. EVs are good for the environment now and will continue to get even better.
