Car leasing 17:43 - Jan 23 with 2264 views

Anyone do it?

Changing my car in March and just been looking seems some great deals out there. Obviously you never own it but seems a good way to get a brand new car relatively cheaply and avoid issues like depreciation and what might happen to diesels in the future.

IC engines are going to be around for at least 20 years yet and maybe more. Although electric cars have been around longer than IC cars there’s a good reason why petrol and diesel pushed electric to one side and no amount of fuss about CO2 is going to reverse that any time soon.

One simple reason is that there isn’t enough cobalt on the planet to replace every IC engine with a battery. Hydrogen fuel cells are a much more viable way to go in the short and medium term.

It doesn't help that most people think of bombs when they think of Hydrogen.

I have not really kept up-to-date with all this tech changes in cars. But tell me, the electric charging needed for these cars....surely this must come from power stations yes? And if everyone witched to this method surely then those power stations would need to produce more energy, and thus in turn produce a bigger amount of emissions. Are we just swapping many small pollution makers for a few very big ones?
