Electric cars are becoming an attractive business proposition for high-mileage vehicle operators such as ride-sharer Uber in key EU capitals such as Paris, Berlin, Madrid and Lisbon, a new study by research and campaign group Transport & Environment (T&E) has found. Charging is a key barrier for the uptake of EVs by professional drivers.

Cities increasingly find themselves faced with the challenge of reconciling a healthy climate and their inhabitants’ quality-of-life demands with the transport of goods and deliveries in central urban areas. A 40 kW charging station fills a battery up to 80% in 45 minutes. It has 290 N·m of torque at its immediate disposal.

Black carbon has been found to be second to carbon dioxide in terms of its climate forcing. Black carbon is 3,200 times more effective on a mass-equivalent basis than carbon dioxide in causing climate impacts within 20 years, and 900 times more effective within 100 years.
