"Emissions from petrol and diesel vehicles are a significant contributor to air pollution. Since electric vehicles
do not burn petrol or diesel, they produce none of these tailpipe emissions. Therefore, to eliminate automotive pollution,
all cars should be electric."
Which of the following identifies the primary flaw in the reasoning above?
A. It fails to consider that the generation of electricity required to power electric vehicles may itself produce significant pollution.
B. It does not account for the practical and economic challenges of transitioning the entire automotive market to electric vehicles.
C. It relies on the premise that emissions from petrol and diesel vehicles are a serious environmental problem.
D. It overlooks the fact that many consumers prefer the performance and range of traditional petrol-powered cars.
