China’s largest traditional carmakers are falling behind their global peers on supply chain decarbonisation and material use efficiency, dampening the positive climate-change impact of the country’s fast roll-out of electric vehicles (EVs), according to a new report.
Environmental group Greenpeace East Asia released on Thursday its latest ranking of the environmental performance of the world’s 15 largest traditional carmakers, based on their phase-out of fossil fuel vehicles in favour of EVs, their supply chain decarbonisation, and their resource reduction and efficiency.
