ICBW but AIUI the total cycle of electric versus diesel does not show a

If youd driven into Glasgow yesterday and seen the yellow pall of smog
hanging over the city you might think otherwise.

It does move the pollution away from residential areas to power stations,
but that does not achieve 'saving the planet' however the greens choose to define that.


Volvo/Polestar are trying to put some figures to it all (which account for
carbon costs of build & use).
