Zero Emission by 2035??

https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.b...mp/uk-40726868


As much as global warming/climate change etc is a big concern and a real threat what are people's thoughts on a full ban by 2035?

Good idea?
Bad idea?
Unachievable/not going to happen?

Furthermore what will the costs be to run combustion engine post ban? Car tax etc...?

Albeit 2035 is a long time away, I just can see true petrol-heads ever being happy going full electric.

Saying that the new Porsche Taycan does give me hope....

I think that 2035 thing may actually happen, it’s a Multinational thing (varying dates) rather than U.K. politics so it should get traction. Unlike an F10 M5 in feb.

If they put 600bhp of electric motors in the F90 M5 and kept the weight within 100kg (I think that’s roughly a Tesla model 3) would you buy one over the petrol?

I think I would
