Air pollution, a critical issue in many regions, is particularly influenced by the transportation sector, which contributes significantly to urban haze and environmental degradation. The transition towards cleaner transportation solutions, such as electric vehicles (EVs), presents both opportunities and challenges for improving air quality.
