Hi Gdetraler:
Unless something has changed.....For a 2015 Compact Passenger Vehicle, the sample BEV model produces 105,054 pounds of green-house gas emissions (CO2-equivalents) over a full vehicle lifetime, whereas the equivalent ICEV produces 136,521 pounds of greenhouse gas emissions, a 23% advantage in global warming potential for the BEV. For the 2015 Mid-Size Passenger Vehicle, the BEV produces 122,772 pounds of CO2-equivalents, whereas the ICEV produces 151,651 pounds, a 19% advantage in global warming potential for the BEV. BEVs and ICEVs will both produce fewer greenhouse gas emissions in 2025, but the balance will still favor BEVs.
