Switching to EVs won't solve society's emissions or transport problems argues this writer, in an interesting take on the move to phase out petrol and diesel vehicles.

This got interesting a close to home [biggrin]
Toyota’s Hino truck division has announced a major foray into electric and hydrogen powered trucks, with Melbourne’s SEA Electric set to partner in the development of a new medium sized truck.
SEA Electric manufactures electric vehicle drive trains in Melbourne and has been converting Hino truck models to electric here and in the United States.
Now the company will partner with Hino in its global Project Z which will expand its range of largely diesel trucks.
The two companies will develop a new electric class 5 truck built on a Hino chassis equipped with an electric drive system supplied by SEA Electric.
Hino will also develop a tractor-trailer powered by a Totoya hydrogen fuel cell, and other truck variants based on hydrogen and battery electric technology from Hexagon Purus and Xos Trucks.
Hino’s senior vice president Glenn Ellis and SVP Glenn Ellis made the announcement, which is a major coup for SEA Electric, in a video posted to Facebook.
The smaller end of the SEA-Drive 70 just might be close to a Disco plug and play. [biggrin]

Home battery systems can help during power outages. So can the battery packs rolling around in electric vehicles.
That's going to cause a revolution in energy management. It is already possible in Australia, but is not widely known.

Air conditioning impacts on fuel /energy so you already know the answer Eevo[biggrin]Quote:

This is interesting,won't help manufacturers such as LR that produce many heavy vehicles.
So get in and get your vehicle before these rules and taxes start to arrive here.
Looking at actual $,a vehicle that weighs 1000KG over the limit is going to cost an extra $16500 to purchase.[bigsad]
They would be better off teaching people to keep tyre pressures where they should be and to drive sensibly which would also not only reduce fuel,but also reduce brake pad dust and rubber particles from tyres,which are a huge issue as well.
But that will never happen,they just need an excuse for another tax,which is all it is.
