    If you tell me gasoline yeah probably (diesel generator to power electric motors is done in big ships), caol I highly doubt it.

    But apart from pollution per se, an electric car used everyday would require at least 50% of a household power budget to charge (2-3 kW). If every single ICE vehicle would be immediately swapped to electric, I doubt many countries would be able to cope with the increased power consumption. That’s why we need more energy infrastructure before a full switch. Or you know, less cars and more public transport.
