Why Used EVs Could Help Climate Change

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis, discusses how electric vehicles (EVs) can play a significant role in mitigating the U.S. climate crisis. Despite new EVs being expensive, the growing availability of used EVs—priced between twenty and twenty-five thousand dollars—could make them more accessible and help reduce transportation emissions, which account for 22% of U.S. emissions. McIntyre highlights that while new EVs at a lower price point may take time to become widely available, used EVs are already offering a viable solution to the problem.
