By contrast, half the electric vehicle market value lies in larger road vehicles, notably cars, and here the legal restrictions are weaker or non-existent and range anxiety compels most people to buy hybrids if they go electric at all. IDTechEx is producing an event looking at the whole range of electric vehicles.

The European Commission is taking the UK to court—along with Germany, France, Italy, Romania, and Hungary—over its long-standing failure to meet EU limits for nitrogen dioxide (NO?). The report also showed a lack of awareness of the wide range of sources of air pollution with most naming transport as the main cause.

Researchers from Istituto Motori - CNR in Italy and Eni report in a paper in the journal Fuel that blends of hydrocracked fossil oil (HCK) and Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) as diesel fuels deliver fuel consumption (FC) and CO 2 savings based on the NEDC cycle. Regardless of the feedstock, neat HVO has high cetane number and low density.

The European countries with the highest sales of diesel vehicles are Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and the UK. Bosch expects this market share to increase significantly in the future due to the expanding range of available diesel models. Its share ranges from around 40% for light vehicles to almost 100% for heavy vehicles.

TREV is a range extender system that uses a micro-turbine (fueled either by liquid or gaseous fuels) to generate electricity that charges a battery pack. The high efficiency of the TREV range extender results in a requirement for fewer batteries, saving weight and space. The battery powers the motors that drive the wheels.

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. Likewise, the 2018 Morandi bridge collapse in Genoa, Italy, was caused by a combination of aging infrastructure and severe weather.
