Summary

This document is a peer review report authored by Luiz Almeida, evaluating a manuscript titled "Longevity of Electric Vehicle Operations." The review does not present original research findings but rather critiques the structural and content deficiencies of the submitted manuscript, recommending significant revisions before publication. The reviewer acknowledges that the subject matter is relevant to the scientific community and that the topics align with the proposed title. However, the critique identifies several critical omissions in the manuscript’s structure. First, the abstract is deemed insufficient because it fails to articulate the novelty of the work, the methods applied, or brief conclusions. The reviewer recommends adding specific statements regarding these features and including contextual data on electric vehicle (EV) market presence, such as global sales figures, future trends, and energy consumption shares. Additionally, the introduction lacks a clear statement of novelty; the reviewer suggests organizing the contributions into bullet points to clarify the advances presented to the scientific community. A major structural flaw identified is the absence of a dedicated methodology section. Without this, the reviewer could not determine the type of analysis performed, such as whether it was a simple analysis or a literature review. The reviewer advises adding a section describing the adopted methodology and its advantages over other approaches. Furthermore, the organization of the text is criticized for having too many sections, which may confuse readers. The reviewer suggests consolidating related aspects into subsections under a general heading, such as “Main dimensions of EV operations,” and adding more references to support claims, particularly regarding regions planning to terminate internal combustion engine vehicle production. The conclusion section is also found lacking. The reviewer notes that it misses discussions on the contributions, methodology, and main advances or challenges identified for each dimension. A paragraph outlining future works and next steps for research is also missing. The reviewer emphasizes that major improvements are required before the work can be published. To support the authors in strengthening their manuscript, the reviewer suggests four specific literature sources: Ritchie et al. on CO2 emissions, the IEA Global EV Outlook 2023, Ellabban et al. on renewable energy resources, and an European Commission press release regarding the end of new CO2-emitting car sales in Europe by 2035. The overall assessment indicates that while the topic is valuable, the manuscript requires substantial restructuring and clarification to meet publication standards.
