I like EVs for the fact they cut way down on air and noise pollution, which is especially a problem in cities. The air in cities, especially in the wintertime, can get absolutely foul from car exhaust stagnating low to the ground.
On the downside, they're heavier and so wear through tires faster, which contributes to microplastic pollution. Presumably as time goes on we'll see more energy dense (and therefore lighter) batteries being implemented, as well as structural batteries integrated into the vehicle chassis, which should both help weight. But the tire microplastics issue is bigger than just EVs and really needs its own solution.
