Electric cars aren’t pollution-free; they have to get their energy from somewhere.
Meaning of the quote
The quote means that even though electric cars don't produce any direct pollution when you drive them, the electricity they use still comes from somewhere, like power plants. These power plants might use fossil fuels, which can cause pollution. So while electric cars themselves don't pollute, the energy they use might still have an impact on the environment.
