In the process of promotion, EVs are sometimes considered to be zero-emission vehicles, but their production and use of battery packs will have a great impact on the environment.
And that''s one of the smallest batteries on the market: BMW''s i3 has a 42 kWh battery, Mercedes''s upcoming EQC crossover will have a 80 kWh battery, and Audi''s e-tron will come in at 95 kWh. With such heavy batteries, an electric car''s carbon footprint can grow quite large even beyond the showroom, depending on how it''s charged. Driving in ...
À l''instar de la communauté internationale, le Gabon a célébré ce lundi 5 juin la Journée mondiale de l''environnement, sous le thème «Solution à la pollution plastique».
