\n

In this episode of On The Way, Laurent Perron, project coordinator at the think tank The Shift Project,<\/strong><\/a> deconstructs the most widespread preconceived ideas about the electric car with pedagogy and precision.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

With a career spanning more than twenty years in the automotive industry, notably at PSA, Laurent brings both a technical and ecological perspective to the transition to electric mobility. The Shift Project,<\/strong><\/a> a non-profit organization, aims to inform and influence the debate on climate-energy challenges with a vision rooted in the physical and energy realities of our world.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

Carbon footprint, extraction of raw materials, battery recycling, autonomy, purchase cost, impact on the electricity grid… Laurent responds to the arguments that still hinder the adoption of the electric car today. His message is clear: the electric car is not a miracle solution, but an essential lever towards more sober mobility and real energy sovereignty for France.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

\n

An episode that gives the keys to forming an informed opinion on one of the most divisive debates of the ecological transition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
