New TVR still under wraps! (Vol. 3)
Discussion
I hope that society as a whole, (mainly the politicians) will realise that pushing electric cars is a waste of time.
Apparently worldwide emissions that cause World problems for all forms of transport including aircraft, ships, trains, lorries and cars et cetera, et cetera amount to only 13%. The biggest polluter is not surprisingly industry at about 43% closely followed by agriculture at 37%.
Our current use of EV’s which are charged up from mainly fossil fuels worldwide make f
k all difference. When most of the world runs on renewables then maybe.
Until that time I will not feel guilty running my 4.6 rangy, 3.4 Porsche and Track Day Skoda.
Those percentages BTW are from my memory which as people who know me is not reliable and selective!

Was just wondering how much longer the Norfolk greenhouse will take to complete. 
Probably going to be in sync with the first car to come out of the TVR factory (if they ever sign the lease) so likely 2024 then.

Not at all. When pushing them, the motor acts as a dynamo, so you actually charge the battery by doing so!
in other words out with the skates 
not much use then this regeneration effect then is it?
