If EU is really serious about climate change why don't we just declare that after 2007 in EU no car with greater than 2liter cannot be sold anymore.
If you really think about it
1. nowadays we can anyway squeeze a really lot of power, torque and speed from 2liter and below motors,
2. only in Germany one can actually drive more than 130km/hrs (which sort of makes it just simply stupid under the circumstance to put so much effort on >>200km/hrs cars... simply a clear case of ego boosting thru the BIG car?) and even there Germans and planning to go to 130km/hrs limit... not to mention that we can squeeze >200km/hrs from 2liter motors ;o)
I have a feeling that the effect in terms of CO2 and fuel consumption savings in 2-3 year would be significant in EU level, and most of all on a bit longer term it would have a huge effect on really now directing autoindustry's efforts to the right direction instead of current super car launching which is sort of so passe under the circumstances ?
(Even though real beauties I have to admit) do AudiQ7, new BMW x5, Mercedes GL really make sense for anybody ?
