It really depends on the new model of car you choose to replace your outgoing one.

This was the website that I have been thinking of:

You can see some electric cars are far worse than a hybrid as an example.

you can also see that there are only a few hybrid vehicles a bit better than bev, and bev are overall 'better' in this diagram?

in fact - if you filter by vehicle class you see that bev are always 'better' in their respective class than hybrid or ice. you can't compare a bev suv with a midsize hybrid.

Do you also see the amount of carbon to the left? That isnt total. Its per mile. You cannot even read the diagram and then you claim switching to evs is bad...
