Nah! There will be money behind it somewhere.
There are unfortunately.
Agree Moggy.. Check out 'The Great Stink'... London in the 1850's..... Water and air Pollution were The worse in History... Londons got it Good nowadays....There are unfortunately.
I believe it’s a push by manufacturers to have vehicles with built in obsolescence. That and replacing all the diesel vehicles people were persuaded to buy!!
As I’ve said before on here, air quality in our cities is the best it has ever been in history. The vast majority of harmful nitrates don’t come from vehicles.
Does the £8.99 cover all charges in that month, Or do you still pay for each charge when you charge it up... If that makes senseLad at work runs an i3, lives near catterick and works in York, so some town stuff and the A1M for most of his driving. On a full charge he's getting 170 to 185 miles. He pays a monthly fee of £8.99 for his charge card which uses public charge points, never charges at home only the charge points (we have one at work too) Loves the car.
I like them to drive (a bit different to a normal car) and I like the hybrids to drive but they're not that economical tbh.
As I said though, the majority of harmful pollutants, notably nitrates, that are inhaled do not come from vehicles. They come from the home.Poor quality air caused by cars in parts of London and Birmingham is worse than it's ever been. We don't have to worry about historical poor air quality, the causes of those have gone.
I thought the point of electric cars was to move pollution out of the cities to unoccupied areas.
The German study is only "new" in as much as the pollution levels have actually been calculated rather than guessed at. Everybody knew production and recharging would produce pollutants.
The real trouble is there are just too many people to support in a lifestyle to which they have become accustomed.
It's either reduce the population or start walking.
