FLAT ABOUT BEVS

Regarding ‘EVS by the numbers: do they make financial sense?’ (Whichcar, June 16) what manufacturers or governments won’t talk about is the energy required to make an EV, or the environmental impact of eventual battery disposal.

Further, there is no discussion about the energy source used to generate the electricity to recharge. Is it coal-fired?

EVS are basically a con implemented by short sighted politicians appeasing ignorant, agenda-driven environmentalists.
