Claim: Senator Matt Canavan claims that electric vehicles produce double the greenhouse emissions of an internal combustion engine vehicle  during manufacturing.
Fact-check: Does making an electric car use twice the emissions of a standard model?
Verdict: misleading – the claim is accurate in parts but information has also been presented incorrectly, out of context or omitted.
