Eco-friendly diesel does not happen

You probably already know: diesel engines, Volkswagen was set up so that at the time of the tests met all the most stringent environmental standards, but on a real road emissions were increased tenfold. However, the scandal of the state commissions and regulatory authorities have no one to blame but themselves.

Europe is the acknowledged leader in developing diesel engines and the largest market for cars with this type of motor simply because the vast majority of European countries the amount of tax on the car depends on the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) is the culprit of global warming — into the atmosphere. For example, in Austria and Belgium more than 70% of passenger cars equipped with diesel engines. And passport characteristics on CO2 emissions and fuel economy, the diesel looks much better than the petrol counterparts, but the amount of toxic soot, nitrogen oxides and sulphur is much higher. But it's only on the passport characteristics.





The fact that the measurement technique that was developed by the state Supervisory authorities, distorts the results by about 40%. Less, of course. This effect can be noticed by comparing passport fuel consumption, which is measured by the same method, and actual performance of your own car. When the rules are set by fraud, the brands play it too with the spoils. This is usually more innocuous — for example, Aston Martin paper adds to the model range minicar (Toyota IQ, but with their emblems) to reduce the average CO2 emissions of their vehicles. A Volkswagen had been too bold and the line moved. It is one thing to deceive the officials, and the other — the buyers themselves.

Does this mean that eco-friendly cars don't exist, and all attempts in recent years to reduce the amount of harm caused by vehicles to the environment — fiction? If you look at the whole situation — Yes.The increase of the world fleet of trucks occurs more rapidly than reduction of harmful emissions of every car, so cars with internal combustion engines in their General mass will still increase the total amount of harmful emissions into the atmosphere. And to make exhaust of any engine, burning fuel, completely harmless is impossible.

Hybrid engine, too, is largely a deceit, as the production of the hybrid drive and batteries high capacity in the Foundation, energy-intensive and chemically dirty.

The only breakthrough that we can expect, is associated with the electric vehicles. But it only happens when there is mass and, therefore, available models, and this needs to be improved technology of production of batteries — the most expensive part of electric vehicle.But by the time when this happens, the success of the authorities in reducing the cities of personal transport can lead to the fact that even eco-friendly and safe electric car among the low-floor buses and silent trams of the future will look as strange as now the rider on horseback. From the vehicle the vehicle will turn into a means of production for delivery services and farmers.

I just hope to live in this beautiful season I do not have neither you nor me.--vid1-- published Author: Nikolay Stepanov P. S. And remember, just changing your mind — together we change the world! ©
