German power play

It’s the right decision of course. The proposal was for yet another one of the many EU rules where the benefits are doubtful and the implementation would have had no measurable effects on the desired outcome.


But entirely due to German protectionism for its performance car industry – and much to the disappointment of Ford - the limit of 95g of CO2 per km for any vehicle’s emissions has now been delayed at least till 2024! Well Done Germany!

Like CO2 is the only emissions that cars puke out. The only reason they have to add all kinds of gadgets to stifle emissions is because they still have to maintain gas consumption. If they carbureted or injected the fuel and air properly, they could easily double mileage and lower emissions.
