Despite what you've been told...

Your quoted material does not appear in either of your links, one dated Oct 16, 2018 and the other seems to quote a 2007 study.

The Industry Week article mostly compares hybrids and conventional engines, not plug-in electrics and conventional engines, except for, well, this:

...electric cars are emission-free on the road, they still discharge a lot of the carbon-dioxide that conventional cars do if they are made in a factory powered by fossil fuels.

That's a big "if".

And the Science article (How Stuff Works) has a dead link [source: Burnham et al] to an Argonne study so it's impossible to know when the study was published and the specifics of the study.

Got a link to that study or any more current articles for us? Even the 2018 article is ancient in this field.
