In reality, it could be more modestly: "it rolls a little less against the planet". But, well, that wouldn't be a very good title. In any case, I find that if this can make motorists more aware of ecology than we are, it is always a win, it goes in the right direction.

Sorry I do not agree, it especially gives an ecological image (organic ...) to cars that are not yet ... and will not be for a long time (if they are one day ...) ...

Besides, I bet there is not a word about HVB / HVP in this mag ... Is it so surprising for a mag advertising by PPDA?

(it must belong to the same interest group ... hence the free advertising ...)

Will have to see. Maybe we could give them a chance before going down in flames? Anything that contributes to raising awareness of the polluting automobile drivers in ecology seems to me good to take.

No problem to give them a chance but they already have 2 big black dots:
1) their title
2) their logo (the small bio sheet ... for example)

I will try to see if we can find it in Belgium ... if it is I was a bad language ...

I will make photocopies of the 2 pages.
Remind me how then to make them appear in my large post (whole pages on the screen)?

I did not find an article on HBV in the autobio site, but I found that, a revolutionary electric vehicle invented by a Chinese woman (because her country is extremely polluted):

Woodcutter, what do you think of this extra device to get around town, especially for the Chinese, although the pb is always recharging the batteries at home, and there you still need lots of nuclear power plants or other to produce the fairy electricity (it was the Chinese who called it that).

Frankly bof the lotus ...

It's only one place, it's ugly and probably very confusing to drive and probably not practical.

I'm not even talking about the price because of the advanced technologies used (see particularity) ...

What interest if not to have a protopipo Moreover?

Pkoi not to make a small 2-seater car (Gulf car style) with a 10 hp thermal engine designed to operate at HVB and pkoi not in hybrid? It would be econological ...

Its particularities:

- easy to park because it is small, - there are only two places and two wheels, - the steering wheel is replaced by a joystick to save space, - it is stable thanks to the use of gyroscope technology, - it runs on electricity, zero emission of pollutants, and rechargeable with the electricity of your house, - it is only a city car, - it blends into the environment, - all the materials used are recyclable, - batteries are placed under the conductor.
