This Is The Top Selling E-Car In UK,

the Nissan Leaf,



with Nissan Intelligent Mobility Technologies including ProPILOT, you can hit the road again with less noise and zero emission, photograph Nissan, but what all manufactures of all electric vehicles fail to tell you, is that manufacturing electric vehicles generates 63 per cent more carbon dioxide than making petrol or diesel models damning research has found, it means some zero-emission vehicles have to be driven for almost 50,000 miles before they are as 'green' as cars powered by fossil fuels, the report found the production of an all-electric Polestar 2 – owned by Volvo – generates 24 tons of carbon dioxide, compared with 14 tons for a petrol-engine Volvo XC40, the study, commissioned by Honda, Aston Martin, Bosch and McLaren, says: 'You would have to drive 48,700 miles in a Polestar 2 before its carbon footprint becomes smaller than a Volvo XC40. Similar results have been shown by studies conducted by Volkswagen comparing the e-Golf against the diesel Golf.' it is strange that not only do manufactures not tell you this when you are buying an all electric car, neither does the UK government on it is way for the Prime Minister's plan to achieve net zero emissions by banning sales of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030.
