Your model might be comparing an EV versus nothing situation. Since it is going to be EV vs. ICE, the ‘extra pollution’ will be created unless people stop driving, so EV still wins in that case.

It would be better if we had the funds to rebuild our cities to make them not dependent on vehicles, but our hands our tied.
