Part 2 of our journey into the EV paradigm looks at the high breakeven mileage to achieve CO2 benefits, and at battery issues such as high minerals content, high weight, poor energy density and fire.
And another thing: The NetZero Blob tells us that EV batteries can be "recycled" in the sense that they are separated into their valuable component parts. But this is not true. 100% of spent EV batteries in the US are dumped somewhere and will get wet and will, in time, explode and emit toxic hydrogen fluoride. It will be the job of America's Tony Sopranos to "handle" the "waste management" problem which would most likely be the Passaic River. See:
you should get into the discussion in germany about it.
it covers all you do, but in more detail. and in the end, its wrong to further produce co2 by common vehicles, and using hydrogen is much more inefficient than using electric power batteries directly.
I am sorry but I can't beat Germany when it comes to the formulation of sound energy policy: closing down of nuclear plants in the middle of an energy crisis, installation of solar panels when there is no sun, installation of the great Siemens wind mills that require massive repairs, passive acceptation of the sabotage of their energy infrastructure, transition to EVs when several of the more efficient ICE cars are produced in Germany, etc. etc. Can't beat that indeed. :)
I think the Volvo SUV segment charts compared C40 and XC30 owing to their shared platforms - same chassis, very similar balance and weight, different propulsion. Probably the best case in a like for like when comparing ICE to BEV.
The Volvo comparison unfortunately does not feature the most efficient available ICE motor. (possibly 30% less consumption with a diesel engine). In that case, the mileages needed to reach breakeven would be much longer.

thats a us kind of thing, that us is bad at recyclying anyway and should fix this, not only at batteries
Are EV batteries recycled in Europe?
Internal combustion engines using green hydrogen would be vastly more reasonable than batteries.

totally wrong

your post lacks so many things, cant even tell.
maybe you should have stayed into covid.

RETARDATION IN FULL BLOOM is what EVs represent to me.
The fact that TPTB want them should tell us everything ehh...
