Compare an electric vs petrol car yourself

The Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology has put a fabulous tool together to help you compare the overall environmental impact of electric cars vs internal combustion engine (ICE) cars. The main aim is to let users understand why, how, and in which cases electro-mobility is actually performing according to its green image, by cutting per-km emissions from its fossil-fuel-based counterpart. A second objective is to show in which conditions electric vehicles may "counter-perform": what happens when the battery size changes? or the background electricity mix? the battery lifetime? what about winter conditions affecting battery performances?
