Comparative carbon emissions of gasoline vehicles and BEVs at equivalent mileages. Note: This figure illustrates the carbon emissions during the driving phase for both electric vehicles (BEVs) and gasoline vehicles over the same driving mileage. The monthly emission reduction per vehicle are calculated as the difference in carbon emissions between the gasoline vehicles and BEVs for equivalent mileages. The detailed formula used for this calculation is outlined in the “Models” section, and the specific data utilized can be found in Supplementary Data 2-1.
