What the source says
In 2025, the global fleet of EVs avoided the consumption of around 1.7 million barrels of oil per day (mb/d), primarily in countries that have implemented fuel economy and CO2 standards, such as China and the European Union.
Checked: the figure 1.7 million barrels per dayis stated in this passage. If it does not match, the extraction is wrong and we want to know.
