I was thinking the same thing you are probably thinking right now. Oh no, another one of those articles, but it's actually the opposite. Nice article about how EVs reduce your carbon footprint. https://www.washingtonpost.com/climate-solutions/2021/03/30/climate-curious-electric-cars/
The 'pay wall' defeated me but I'd given up on the Washington Post a long time ago. Just one of my pet peeves, the assumption we are environmental 'green.' Although I am sympathetic, I drive efficient cars to avoid paying more per mile than I have to. I'm 'cheap'. Bob Wilson
More junk journalism: Love these quotes: "or wasted overcoming friction from the air and road." "I might as well put 14 gallons of that gas in an oil drum, light it" "100 percent efficient" and it only gets worse after that. But it's the Washington Post so this is expected.

While I do pay for the WaPo, as I think they generally do a pretty good job, look up how to defeat javascript on your browser for those times when a soft paywall stops you from reading one article. You can even leave a tab open to settings in most browsers to toggle between on and off as some sites[google maps, cnn] are blank without it. There are hard paywalls out there[WSJ] that this does not work on
