As Jay Leno has mentioned several times... ICE cars will go the way of the Horse. You will eventually be relegated to have them as a luxury. You will have to take them certain places to use them and they will become the plaything of the rich. "Red Barchettta" indeed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)
California will also pull sway in the Northeast where 6-7 states already follow CA regulations for vehicle emissions. Im looking at you Boston and NYC as the places that will also spearhead a similar effort, at least in cities. Sitting at idle while you commute does no one any good from an air quality point of view. So, it will start with commuters first (looking at you London with your "tolls" (taxes) to drive an ICE into the busy city center) and go from there. I don't like it.. Electric isn't the answer for everyone, everywhere, but realistically, for most commuters, it is a reasonable alternative. I would also rather suck it up and drive an electric car than have to take public transportation (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) |
