Ev Vs Gas Emissions. Over the life cycle of an ev — from digging up the materials needed to build it to eventually laying the car to rest — it will release fewer greenhouse gas emissions. While it may not be surprising that battery electric vehicles (bevs) have the lowest life cycle emissions of the three vehicle segments, we can also take some other.
The results presented are estimates. Jarod cory kelly, principal energy systems analyst at argonne, said making evs generates more carbon than combustion engine cars, mainly due to the extraction.
