It's pretty clear that my low mileage ICE vehicle has lower lifetime emissions than an equivalent EV.
I specifically bought ICE for low annual mileage, long trips. EV is completely unsuitable, and would be more expensive, and more polluting.
I think the more appropriate study is that for many cases the EV is less CO2 emitting.
Not all cases, and they didn't consider pollution.
I do hold that for most people, and for my primary car, in my location an EV is a better choice.
But for some use cases they just don't make sense (and may never make sense)
