I'm a firm beliver in Biofuels. In 2005 80% of all Ford Focuses bought in Sweeden are run on Bioethanol.
All diesels can run on WELL MADE biodiesel.
And old Indirect diesels with a good fuel pump can run on straight veg oil.
There is perfect replacements for petrol, there is no need to get rid of the internal combustion engine.
And as for Nissan saying it's not a real world test? How isn't it? You might have to recharge anywhere, that review clearly shows a flaw in places to recharge.
as what topgear said, the only real answer is hydrogen powered like that honda james drove in america ages ago... its just it may be a little more expensive than petrol but id be more than happy to pay a little more money to drive that rather than a shitty little electric car.
i remember them saying when that seasick steve bloke came on to do a lap in the lacetti, they were talkin about prius's etc and jeremy mentioned that a prius does alot of damage to the envireonment before its even been driven. That steve bloke drives an old chevy truck and even being driven till the truck dies (which it wont
) it wont do as much damage to the envireonment as a prius
or run cars on moonshine
