Well, one benefit would be to breathe cleaner air and thus live longer. Also, the less noise from an EV is better for quality of life. The batteries in an EV make the vehicle have a lower center of gravity than an IC vehicle. Lower center of gravity allows a vehicle to BRAKE faster........maybe (?) that could save someone's life.
