Roughly half of production emissions come from carbon-intensive input materials and metals, and the other half is due to the coal-burning electricity mix of manufacturing countries like China, Korea and Japan where most batteries are made. Most of the carbon emissions from cars come from fuelling them up with gas and driving them.
