> So basically we would like to cut down on using oil by… burning more oil.

For now. Until we build more renewable energy plants. Miles per ton of CO2 is better with EVs no matter how you power the EV.

> And how are EVs more efficient then standard cars if they have less range and don’t work as well in certain climates and can’t go where the electricity is not readily available?

EVs are less convenient, no argument there. But they're still more efficient. Even in cold climates. 90% of new vehicles sold in Norway are EVs or plug-in hybrids.

> We are already polluting the environment by burning stuff for electricity, how does any of this help?

Switch to renewables and then you stop burning stuff. Until then, burning oil for power is better than burning oil to propel cars.

> And where to we get all the chemicals for the batteries and what do we do with them when they are useless?

Tesla recycles 90% of the important metals in their batteries.
