Despite a reduction in road transport exhaust emissions across Europe, there have been no significant improvements in concentrations of fine particulates (PM 10 ) and nitrogen oxides (NO x ), which have a major impact on air quality and human health. Well-designed policies to manage demand for transport can reduce transport volumes.

Just thinking about the crew of people needed to tramp around to change all those batteries is exhausting, and to actually do it would be prohibitively expensive and impractical. This sensor can be customized to designated tilt thresholds, and it consumes no power while waiting for the triggering motion.

Projections, based on initial testing, indicate that the range of a future production supercar under battery power alone will be up to 150 km (93 miles). Air drawn into the micro turbine is passed through a heat exchanger where heat from the exhaust air is transferred to the cold intake air after it has been compressed.
