Research reveals: People are driving electric cars less than projected
New data indicates that electric vehicles may not be an easy future substitute for the gasoline-powered fleet, as EVs are currently being used half as much as conventional cars. That is according to a paper published from the University of Chicago, Uni…
PHEV: Real-world consumption 2-4 times higher than approved
Plug-in hybrids have been losing their allure as bridges to a new era of clean transport with many analysis finding real-world consumption and CO2 emissions far from type-approval values. Fraunhofer ISI and the ICCT just prove this to hold globally and across models. In their study published today, the researchers evaluated over 100,000 PHEVs in […]
