Volvo does not use ev-platforms for their NEVs so they are inefficient manufacturers.Volvo are a smart business and generally leading the heard in many ways.
they would have had an R&D department for electric cars for a while
how would Volvos cars components greatly differ from other electric car manufactures? not greatly
the 92% is claimed! like everything else claimed about green tech is a scam and load of tripeVolvo does not use ev-platforms for their NEVs so they are inefficient manufacturers.
Also Tesla's batteries, by way of example, are 92% recyclable.
However, LFP batteries don't have the energy or mineral impact of Tesla's batteries.
Simple bottom line is that regardless of metrics, on life cycle bases BEVs are significantly less CO2 polluting than ICE vehicles.
You did up the battery materials once, and then the last the life of the car and can be recycled unlimited times, where as you have to be constantly drilling for oil all the time.more toxic material dug from the ground. natural vegetation destroyed, poison waste materials pumped back in to the ground, atmosphere or run off in to the river ways!
just like a fat person drinking diet soda and thinking it better for them as it says sugar free
Tesla batteries don’t use cobolt (anymore)im not arguing that point. im just arguing the excuse to dig more out of the ground and the useful idiots blame coal and cows farting
I mean they have black African children digging the callout in the Congo out of the ground, yet preach to us about BLM
congo has around 70% of worlds total calbolt
