A good Challenge thrown into the EV manufacturers in CHINA & US .” In part because of the smelter switch, Polestar was able to cut about 4 tons of emissions — roughly 8% of the total emissions — from materials production per car from the time between its second model and its fourth. The change also incidentally lowered costs, creating a true win-win.” Hightime RACV reviews the high CO2 footprint cars while comparing the EV’s not just range & price. This car has 610kms range as an option. The best sustainable EV on the market from concept to on road performance. Polestar 4 has lesser carbon footprint.

This was the view from the delivery hall at my local #Polestar handover centre this week. Polestar 3's standing in line ready for delivery. Apparently several had already been delivered by the time I arrived at 09.30. It's a wonderful sight, and it made me feel more determined than ever. We cannot loose confidence in #electrification. We cannot go backwards and use #hybrid powertrains in the same vehicle when neither the ICE or battery power source is actually performing at its best. It's not the answer. We only evolve #technology by moving forward. Electrification is undeniably the future of one of the most celebrated of human creations: the motor car. Keep looking forward and, if you can, do your bit to maintain the momentum of #electrification. For all our sakes.

At #DYNAMIK, we deal with environmental topics on a regular basis and therefore we also take electromobility seriously. That's why we're thrilled that in addition to the mild-hybrid cars we already have in our company fleet, we had the opportunity to test two great fully electric cars. The first brand we tested was Volvo Cars and thanks to Arval Slovakia - BNP Paribas Group we also had Hyundai Slovensko at our disposal. And both vehicles showed us what switching to electric mobility entails. Their several-day test in full deployment verified their reliability, high comfort and efficiency. Why is it important to address electric mobility options? Electric vehicles make a significant contribution to reducing CO2 emissions. This reduces the carbon footprint and contributes to cleaner air, i.e. helps to protect the environment. What's more, switching to electromobility can also bring significant financial savings. There can be savings of up to 30-50% on running costs compared to cars with internal combustion engines, and this can be several thousand euros per year. Depending on how you use the car... So electromobility in our perception is not just a fashion trend, but an important step in the pursuit of a sustainable future.

Electric Vehicle (EV) giant, Polestar, has taken a decisive step by severing ties with Australia's auto lobby, FCAI, amidst a contentious disagreement over vehicle efficiency standards, particularly focusing on carbon emissions limits. 🚗💥 At the core of this dispute lies Polestar's unwavering commitment to advancing stricter emission standards aimed at reducing the environmental footprint of vehicles across Australia. Polestar sees these standards as critical in combating climate change and preserving the planet for future generations. 🔌🌱 The standard Polestar is advocating for revolves around imposing lower limits on carbon emissions from vehicles, essentially mandating automakers to produce cars that are more environmentally friendly and energy-efficient. This would necessitate significant shifts in manufacturing practices, including investing in electric vehicle technology and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. 📏🛠️ However, FCAI's reluctance to embrace such stringent standards reflects a broader resistance within the automotive industry to overhaul existing practices. FCAI may be concerned about the potential costs and logistical challenges associated with transitioning to cleaner technologies, as well as the impact on traditional combustion engine manufacturers. ⚡⏳ Polestar's departure from FCAI not only underscores the clash between traditional automotive interests and the growing momentum of electric vehicles but also highlights the urgent need for the industry to adopt more environmentally conscious policies. 🤝🔋🌏 By championing stricter emission standards, Polestar aims to set a precedent for the automotive industry, signaling that sustainability and environmental responsibility should be prioritized alongside profit margins. It's a bold move that challenges the status quo and prompts reflection on the future direction of the industry. 💬🌱 Interested in the #Automotive industry?

The most sustainable car manufacturer? How BMW changed the EV game. BMW has launched the i Vision Circular, with its goal to 'become the most sustainable manufacturer for individual premium mobility.' This is not solely focusing on carbon emissions but actively looking across the board. From circular design to the manufacturing of the car, and finally disassembly: BMW aims to adopt 100 per cent recycled materials use AND 100 per cent recyclability. For a huge operation as big as the BMW Group, that's no small feat. And it comes a couple of months after carmakers were under fire for misreporting carbon emissions. Carbon Tracker suggested the difference between the actual emissions and their research's reported emissions was as much as 27%. The report acknowledged that BMW was improving its disclosure and had narrowed its carbon reporting gap compared with its rivals. The BMW Group is also intending to invest £600 million into Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) production units for Mini in Oxford and Swindon, due to start in 2026 for Mini, the quintessentially British brand that the German automotive company has owned since 2000. When one manufacturer innovates, often competitors follow in quick succession to keep up. So, the hope is that this will create more resource-efficient vehicles. #Sustainability #Circular
