Yep a car of any type if it’s near empty it’s not good news.Obviously in that scenario you'd want to be in a diesel. Every one knows that they heat and run themselves on fresh air in that scenario....

interesting video.... but my word i bet his teeth are glad when he goes to sleep. How to answer a 2 minute question in 16 minutes!Yep a car of any type if it’s near empty it’s not good news.
This guy covers heating cars and range loss, and just that problem sat in a que.
So crims just need to make sure they have a full tank of diesel and drive within the limits and the rozzers will hit zero soon enough? Good to know.Even the rozzers are getting them now! View attachment 1002453
Did you not read the article? Do many pursuits last that long? Surely they would just get more cars involved? No different from a normal car getting tasked to a pursuit when they have next to no petrol…So crims just need to make sure they have a full tank of diesel and drive within the limits and the rozzers will hit zero soon enough?

I believe vehicle batteries are expected to have a second life as part of a domestic solar/battery set up.Probably not very much. We know that the “ten years battery life and not renewable” is bollix, so I wouldn’t believe any of it.
VW can't control prices in isolation. The Chinese are more than capable of cutting their legs off if they try.Watch VW push engined car prices over the next 10 years to keep the price of elec up. There’s no way elec cars are going to get cheaper. They’ll just get more expensive.
There are reports that future electric cars made by Mercedes will be manufactured with some high-end features such as rear-wheel steering, but the customer will have to pay a subscription to unlock that feature on their car.

I suppose it will be something for the ad-blu/dpf delete "specialists" to diversify into when there are no more dieselsThere are reports that future electric cars made by Mercedes will be manufactured with some high-end features such as rear-wheel steering, but the customer will have to pay a subscription to unlock that feature on their car.

Mine has features pre-installed on the car but not turned on, like high end matrix lights, and even the fancy Audi LED indicators, that sweep from the centre of the car out- but all only activated if you pay a subscription via the app....There are reports that future electric cars made by Mercedes will be manufactured with some high-end features such as rear-wheel steering, but the customer will have to pay a subscription to unlock that feature on their car.

Nice to see The Government cut the electric car grant from £2500 to £1500???
And on the same hand trying to promote these vehicles???
My Mercedes cost 90K in 1997. It’s still a fantastic car. I can’t see these new cars ageing so well!Mine has features pre-installed on the car but not turned on, like high end matrix lights, and even the fancy Audi LED indicators, that sweep from the centre of the car out- but all only activated if you pay a subscription via the app....
Will cost you £40/month, or £1025 on a three year special offer to turn it on- just a click of a button on the app.
The EQS is some car though...

I can just see it now: Me in a main dealer in 15 years time....Stupid in reality. Why would anyone want to pay a hefty sub when you could download an alternative (such as Beemercode if you own a BMW) and do it that way
Personally, I don’t like the way modern cars allow themselves to get updates or track you. And I think EVs are going to be the worst for this.

Salesman: How can I help you?
Me: I'm interested in a new one of these please but only if you can deactivate the telematics completely. I think a car having intergenerational Internet connectivity is inherently unsafe.
Salesman: Sorry sir, we can't do that. Only the manufacturer can do that.
Me: Oh well, I suppose I can always get a man I know to hack it and disable it.
Salesman: Oh no sir, you can't do that or the car automatically triggers roadside sensors and the police will arrest you......
Me: Stuff that then, I'll just have to repair the old Octavia again then.....
May be an apocryphal story but a dealer told me of a chap who bought a new combine and went to get it out ready for its second harvest but it wouldn't start. He couldn't find why so called the dealer who informed him the manufacturer had disabled it because the finance payments were behind.....Mine has features pre-installed on the car but not turned on, like high end matrix lights, and even the fancy Audi LED indicators, that sweep from the centre of the car out- but all only activated if you pay a subscription via the app....

Want it a Jeep that researchers in the US managed to hack into from a following car taking control of the steering and brakes to bring it to a halt at the roadside overriding the driver!
Only a matter of time., needed to move it on the 8th day but it has been disabled remotely by GM and the collecting driver had to ring their HQ to get it released.
Hackers could play merry hell
