I love electric vehicles – and was an early adopter. But increasingly I feel duped | Rowan Atkinson | The Guardian https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jun/03/electric-vehicles-early-adopter-petrol-car-ev-environment-rowan-atkinson

Does anyone know if #ElectricVehicles run cooler than #InternalCombustion vehicles? I'd expect that they do, due to generating less waste heat, and while I guess the battery can get hot I doubt it does by as much.
But I'm just wondering if there's a better source than just my guesswork.

Thanks!

This car shouldn’t exist but it does and it’s an #engineering #masterpiece.
You can tootle about in it all day and then do 300mph+ on the track.
Also, I do like Jodie Kidd 😍

“The European Parliament has given its formal approval to new vehicle emissions standards that would effectively ban the widespread sale of combustion engine cars and vans in the 27-country bloc by 2035, the organization announced today. ... An initial agreement on the new rules was reached last October, which calls for all cars and vans sold in the EU to emit zero CO2 emissions by the middle of next decade.”

True -- #leavitintheground and #internalcombustion has to go... But we need more collective solutions too... We cannot all be in our own vehicles and they need to get small and efficient... so more #publictransit, #bikelanes, #carsharing and fewer #highways and #parking garages. Got to move away from #carculture But it needs to be free and convenient to make people switch. #Transit systems build for the riders they have, instead of the riders they want.
