One of the most frustrating parts of this all being, of course, that buying a new electric car is still much worse for the environment than buying a used fuel vehicle.
No it's not EVs are 60% less polluting than fuel vehicles, it's irrelevant if you buy it used because it's history is part of its impact.
The over arching problem is there's too many vehicles on the road, most people including Americans when they drive only drive up to 3 miles.
