    I don’t get Zero Emission......yeah sure the car puts out zero but to recharge emission has to be created somewhere.

    I didn't see any sky scrapers blocking the sunlight falling on the barn where the vehicle would be kept.

    Little do people realise it takes more Electricity to refine the oil to produce petrol / diesel that would be used by Electric Vehicles to travel the same distance as the Internal Combustion powered vehicles that use that petrol / oil.

    Well i suppose I was looking into it a little more than that.....

    Just think how many emissions went onto the air from

    Manufacturing the car
    Building the shed the car was in
    Manufacturing solar panels
    Manufacturing wind farms
    Installers driving to and from installation.

    Or are all these emission free??

    What I would like to see the a rating or a number that tell the purchaser when the produce become cost/emission neutral......

    You can have an emission free cars but not much points if its journey to the new owner has produced more emission than the cars is going to save over its life.

    I’d be happy if they advertised low emission or return on emissions is this many kilometers.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’d like our next run about for the bride to be electric.

    I understand that....I’d be better if there was some sort of ratio/star rating/ return of emissions from manufacture and recharge.
