That doesn't sound right to me. Vehicles burn thousands of gallons of fuel over their lifetime, most of which ends up as heat and noise.
This article reckons the energy required to build a car is about 30 tank full of fuel. Less than a years worth of fuel.
How Much Energy Does It Take to Build a Car?
Thousands of cars are built every day. So as we move into an era of environmental awareness and energy efficiency, let's try to estimate just how much energy is used to build a car.www.motorbiscuit.com
Yeah, right. So all the aluminium and steel involved, and the plastics and rubber didn't cost any energy to produce? That article is manufacturing propaganda. The fact is people buying a new car every 3 years are raping the planet as hard as people doing shed loads of flying. No reason cars won't go 10-15 years easily.
