    Agree, but if you live next to a highway, zero emissions means you’ll be healthier. So in that way the label makes sense.

      While “less sick” is technically “healthier”, if you live near a highway you really should be thinking in terms of degrees of sickness, because that thing will be harming you. Also, consider how your life expectancy is being reduced considerably thanks to vehicle noise, which is barely different between ICE and EVs at highway speeds
