SUVs offer a high degree of comfort and safety, but also have less manoeuvrability and high fuel consumption. Will sales of this type of car continue to grow?
The automotive industry is increasingly focusing on lowering emissions, mainly by reducing the use of internal combustion vehicles. Hybrid and electric cars are steadily gaining in popularity – it’s worth finding out what the differences are between the types.
Passenger and freight transport is estimated to account for 20% of Europe’s total CO2 emissions, which is why the European Union continues to set new limits on the sector’s emissions. For example, the current regulation provides for a further 15% reduction in CO2 emissions for all vehicles by 2025.
In times of economic crisis and rising fuel prices, drivers are looking for the most economical vehicles possible, while manufacturers are looking for the best ways to efficiently comply with increasingly stringent emission limits. An interesting alternative to the still relatively expensive green modes of transportation are vehicles labeled with the acronym mHEV. What exactly is a mild hybrid?
Hybrid cars are growing in popularity in Europe, as evidenced by the fact that as many as half a million hybrid vehicles were sold in the first half of 2021 alone. During urban driving, they operate mainly in electric mode, which is economical and environmentally friendly. But is their operation equally beneficial in winter?
