one thihg I have argued against is the modern 'need' for 150 hp in everyday cars, as 50 hp seemed ok
Agree, but that´s a different subject

And they´re BMW, they´re known for their sport behavioury/daily use mix with very good quality materials, they never tried to manufacture a car with practicability or low price as main goal

i3 continue with BMW mantra, daily use car, premium sector, but still with sporty behaviour and obviously rear traction. As any other BMW

your Vancouver source does not say what you say as above
it says in section 2 ' in dirty electricity regions driving on electricity creates similar climate pollution to gasoline'
that's how I say your chosen source does not say what you say it does

whatever, time will decide these things, not your opinion or mine

This was replied and deleted, but since the question remains on the thread, I´ll repeat the reply


Similar is different from higher, so no, we say the same, "my" source do not specify if higher or lower, only say similar. I´m more precise as they´re similar, but EV are still greener, at least if you do a fair comparison and compare average with average.

But even if you do an unfair comparison like most EV haters usually do...
In most regions, cars fuelled by electricity create less climate pollution than the very best all-gasoline fuelled car.
We agree on something tough, your opinion or mine does not matter, facts and real data matter
