If I read the article correctly, the 18,000 mile breakeven point for an EV car mentioned in paragraph 7 is from prior research.
Paragraph 11 begins "The new research finds that in order to repay the carbon debt of making a new EV, it must be driven 4,400 miles if it’s a car and 6,700 miles each year if it’s a truck."
