Car Brand Jaguar Plans To Only Manufacture Electric Cars By The Year 2025
Car Brand Jaguar Plans To Only Manufacture Electric Cars By The Year 2025. As the world is fighting against the negative effects that fossil fuels is causing, it is important that the contributing industries revise how they conduct their business as this will have a positive impact for the environment in the long term. There are several industries that cause air pollution with the emissions of gasses such as Nitrogen Oxide, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Sulphur Oxide. Petrol cars produce mostly Carbon Dioxide which is released into the atmosphere at large quantities due to the large number of cars that use petrol.
Car manufacturer Jaguar announced that it will only be manufacturing electric cars by the year 2025. The company plans to spend about £2.5bn a year on new technology for its cars. Like other manufacturers, it is under pressure to reduce the Carbon Dioxide emissions from its fleet, as new regulations come into force in Europe and around the world. At the same time, sales of diesels – which generally produce less Carbon Dioxide than petrol engines – have been plummeting.
Carmakers are under pressure to meet stringent carbon emission demands in Europe, as well as customer demand for high-performance electric cars with a luxury or performance feel. The company will also invest in hydrogen fuel cell technology. Fuel cells provide electric power, without producing tailpipe emissions – water is the only by-product.
Governments are now putting in stricter measures to ensure that industrial companies are not emitting fossil fuel gasses that are harmful to the environment. The dire effects of these gasses can be seen with the climate change that is taking place, as the temperatures on earth are getting higher, the world is experiencing more droughts; there is change in rain and snow patterns and the rate of retreat in glaciers around the world.
The UK plans to ban the sale of new petrol and diesel cars from 2030.
