"The life-cycle emissions of BEVs in the European Union are estimated to be 73% lower than those of gasoline ICEVs."
#ICCT's latest report:

Life-cycle GHG emissions of medium segment passenger cars sold in the European Union in 2025 Gasoline + biofuels: 235 g/km Diesel + biofuels: 234 g/km Natural gas + biogas: 203 g/km Hybrid EV: 188 g/km Plug-in hybrid EV: 163 g/km Battery EV, 2025-2044 grid mix: 63 g/km Battery EV, renewables: 52 g/km Fuel cell EV, renewable hydrogen: 50 g/km Fuel cell EV, natural gas hydrogen: 175 g/km
The life-cycle emissions of BEVs in the European Union are estimated to be 73% lower than those of gasoline ICEVs. As presented in Figure ES1, BEVs operating on the projected 2025–2044 average EU electricity mix had estimated life-cycle GHG emissions of 63 g CO2e/km. This is 73% lower than the emissions of gasoline ICEVs running on the average blend of fossil gasoline and ethanol, estimated at 235 g CO2e/km. These savings go beyond just tailpipe CO2 emissions: Emissions from fuel production are…
