EVs do produce substantially less carbon over their full lifecycle than ICE vehicles (petrol or diesel). Studies generally find the carbon payback time to be less than 15,000 miles and the ‘full life’ emissions to be substantially lower. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/lifetime-carbon-emissions-electric-vehicles-vs-gasoline-cars-2021-06-29/ https://arstechnica.com/cars/2021/07/electric-cars-have-much-lower-life-cycle-emissions-new-study-confirms/
