Euro NCAP - For Safer Cars, Vans & Trucks reposted this
🌍 Green NCAP asks industry for more sustainable innovations for ICE vehicles 🌍 Today, Green NCAP releases its latest set of ratings that include the electric BYD SEAL U ⚡, petrol-powered Kia Ceed ⛽, electric Kia EV6 ⚡, diesel-fuelled Peugeot 308 ⛽, electric Toyota bZ4X ⚡, and the petrol Volkswagen Taigo ⛽. The all-electric vehicles (EVs) in the line-up achieve the maximum score of five stars, raising the question of what technological innovations can ensure internal combustion engines (ICE) also remain viable in a world that demands cleaner, more sustainable transportation. 🍃 "It’s true that electric vehicles consistently outperform internal combustion engine cars in our assessments, particularly in the areas of air quality 🌬️ and greenhouse gas emissions 🌍. However, ICE vehicles still have a role to play in the immediate future given their continued appeal. Advanced emissions control systems, hybrid technology, and alternative fuels adoption are all promising developments. A change in consumers’ preferences away from large cars can also contribute to more sustainable mobility. Green NCAP will continue to push for cleaner, more efficient vehicle technologies and advocate for a broader transformation in the way consumers think about and use transportation," suggests Dr. Aleksandar Damyanov, Technical Manager of Green NCAP. 🚙🌿 Read the full press release here 👉 bit.ly/2409GreenNCAPPR 🚗 BYD EUROPE Kia Europe Peugeot Toyota Motor Europe Volkswagen #forgreenercars #cars #sustainability #lifecycleassessment #futuremobility #greenmobility #cleanair 💨 #vehicletesting #zeroemissions #LCAtool 🔧 #fossilfuel #EV #electric #hybrid ⚡⛽ #petrol ⛽ #diesel ⛽ #families 👨👩👧👦 #family #familycar #suv #ICE #BYD #Kia #Peugeot #Toyota #VW #Volkswagen
