This paper presents the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) of traditional and electric vehicles. Among the traditional cars, we examined diesel, petrol, LPG, and CNG, as well as petrol hybrid and diesel hybrid cars. In case of analysis took into production (indirect) and in-use (direct) environmental emissions from a vehicle. While using traditional vehicles, direct emissions are higher than for electric vehicles. In contrast, the environmental impact categories from vehicle production show reverse proportionality. Among the cumulative impact categories, there is no large difference. Depending on the design life and mileage of the vehicles and how they are used, an electric car can pose an even greater environmental risk over its lifetime than a conventional car.
