A study by researchers at Munich Technical University (TUM) has called into question the EU's climate policy regarding electric vehicles. The scientists found that battery-powered electric vehicles reduce carbon dioxide emissions compared to internal combustion engine vehicles by an average of only 41%, far from the claimed 'climate neutrality'. The study suggests considering emissions throughout the entire vehicle lifecycle, not just exhaust gases. This challenges the EU's current approach and could have significant implications for its climate strategy.
