Nissan to go all-electric by 2030 despite petrol ban delay::The carmaker moves ahead with its plan despite delays to the UK’s ban on new petrol and diesel cars.

Yeah because they know that what the Tories announce at this point is essentially just irrelevant and shouldn’t be taken the seriously.
I want the Tories out NOW but I think we still have another year or 2 with them :/
They gotta put the new Z body on an electric base. I’d trade up
the petrol ban delay wouldn’t have happened if THE GOVERNMENT WASN’T SO INCOMPETENT!! I don’t see any initiatives to build electric car charger infrastructure everywhere!
I’d have to agree with some of the proposed ban dates here in the US as well. You can’t just mandate something without also building up the infrastructure to support it. 2030 will be here in the blink of an eye but it doesn’t seem like there is any rush to build out public charging stations, mandate chargers in places like apartment complexes, or upgrade the grid to handle this new load. I suspect a lot of these will get pushed back as their dates approach. It’s very easy to say “at ABC point in the future all things must be XYZ.” It’s much more difficult to actually have things ready for that proposed date.
Reminder:
Nissan cars collect sexual activity and genetics dataLike from the backseat?
You really need a source if you’re going to say this
I knew that Nissan Sentra was the kiss-and-tell type. never should have slept with that car.
Wait how?
I would guess by either having cameras & microphones in and around the car recording you having sex or talkijg about preferences or by installing their app on your phone it might grant permissions to gather all types of data on you
Future policies work like that. The ban won’t have to be enforced, because it’ll be irrelevant before it’s in effect. UK stepping back won’t affect the actual change. Only idiots would invest money in technology that’ll be obsolete in the territory “everywhere worldwide (except UK)”.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Nissan will accelerate plans towards electrification by committing that all vehicles sold in Europe will be electric by 2030.
Car trade body the SMMT has voiced concerns that the postponement of the ban would see consumers delay the switch to electric vehicles.
Nissan will also introduce new battery technology by the end of the decade that it said will reduce both the charging time and cost of electric vehicles (EVs).
In an interview with the BBC, Mr Uchida said the company was aiming to bring down the cost of electric vehicles for customers, so that they were no more expensive than petrol and diesel cars.
Last year, it announced plans to invest £1bn in expanding the facility that sits next to its Sunderland car plant.
Business Secretary Kemi Badenoch recently told the BBC the government was optimistic that a deferral could be secured.

I’m assuming this affects any Electron app as well, right?
Wrong post?
Lost lemmings…
Hhmm what about their navaras, patrols, etc? Electric can’t tow caravans, trailers, etc around the Australian outback yet. Is this just UK?
The very first sentence of the article:
Nissan will accelerate plans towards electrification by committing that all vehicles sold in Europe will be electric by 2030.
Aye! Nice one
UK is not Europe. I wonder if they’re exempt? 🤔
There’s still an entire article with more information. I just grabbed the first sentence to help you out.
True that. I was incredibly lazy. Thank you though
Electric motors can deliver a lot more torque than ICEs, which makes them very much suitable for towing in terms of power, they just need to deliver larger battery packs to compensate for the weight of the towed vehicles, otherwise the range will be limited.
That they can. 100% torque at 0 rpm. The issue is reliable distance capabilities in remote areas. Currently, they just can’t do it.
Aren’t their gas cars already catching on fire? They might wanna like… Iron that out before making evs.
Nothing they do to stop the combustion engine fires from getting out of control, will be applicable to preventing fires in electric cars.
Sure, but the fact that they’re selling fucking bombs isn’t exactly comforting, especially when ev fires are significantly more devastating and harder to extinguish than gas car fires.
