[QUOTE="Flo, post: 172375, member: 3744"] Whether EV make sense (environmentaly) critically depends on the mix of elecrriciy generation and in grid situations like that in Germany (borderline) even on the weather and the time of the day. I am not an electrical engineer but mechanical and this is one of the moments when I am glad, that I'm retired and hence can not afford any new car. But I have an app on my phone which tells me with half way reasonable resolution what the relevant CO[SIZE=1]2[/SIZE]/kWh is - above 400g/kWh electricity is worse than Diesel traction. It surely would be asking too much for polticians to make sense of the situation. All we gat are publicity stunts and more such skip actions. The so called E-fuels do not make me hopeful, since the will hardyly make economic sense. So it will be possible to purchase a Porsche with an Otto-Cycle Engine after 2035 which will liekely come with a guaranteed fuel supply for life. But that wont help me much. [/QUOTE]
