I'm pretty sure that's not a zero emission maneuver.

Par for the course for EVs, given their manufacture brings with it twice the carbon footprint than that of a typical ICE.

This is just plain wrong, reckless and irresponsible…what is your source for that BS?

The Guardian ran an article a couple of months ago on the pros and cons of keeping an existing ICE vs buying a new EV, where comparative carbon footprints and impacts are concerned, and they mentioned the respective data for production. I'm all for EVs as an ecological solution, don't get me wrong. But the monodirectional advocacy of them at a time when we need multiple solutions across different national contexts and socioeconomic constituencies is open to debate. Unless one thinks that they really are the only solution, which is fine.
