Climate change: Chinese carmakers lead the EV transition but lag peers in supply chain decarbonisation, Greenpeace says


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.
