Auto-bio: a journal dedicated to the bio logical vehicle?

Hello everybody

I hope not to duplicate another message or information passed on the site.
A new review has just been born: AutoBio. 6 n ° / year. I think the approach is interesting because it tries to reconcile displacement and ecology (with explanations and everything else). A little expensive however: 5 € but do not spoil my pleasure.

For those who know me a little, I answer the question in advance: no I have no action with this publisher, no I do not write for this review.

Happy reading to all.

Organic vehicle ... AutoBio ... sorry but it's nonsense !!

What is Bio a car?
The most ORGANIC thing in a car is .... fuel (petroleum or biofuel) precisely ...

This term is ABUSIVE !! AutoEco or AutoVerte if necessary but BIO no ... sorry ...

The name of a journal is always a puzzle. We search for months before realizing that the name is registered ... the galley more often.
AutoEco could have an Economic connotation and that's not really the subject. I think that if we ask the question to the "average" consumer if he hears "BIO" he thinks more easily of something that relates to the environment and its preservation (well me that made me think of that ... it is for this reason that I opened this review) ... hence the obligation imposed on a major brand to change the name of one of its yogurts whose name could lend confusing.

But it is true that the title of this magazine is a big abuse of language.

I also hope that it will not be limited to presenting cars that have less impact on the environment, but that we will also see the whole chain of car life and its repercussions on the environment.

I have not seen a website (it is often in the bear and there is nothing).
I bought the magazine. It is not bad but my opinion is only secondary especially since the first 10 numbers are often used to readjust the editorial line.

Precisely this is what I criticize: this largely misleads the consumer ... a car is NOT ORGANIC and will not be so for very long ...

If I worked in organic labels I would clearly file a complaint against this review for misuse of the term organic ...

Bof ... For Rulian to hallucinate, it is almost enough just to pronounce the word "automobile" ... : Lol:

What does "BIO" mean to you Not'Maitre? : Wink:

I fully understand what our journalist friend means ...
Can you give us some summaries of the subjects covered and, as you so well underlined, how they are deepened?

For Christophe, I don't know, for me, the only organic "automobile" is the one we feed with cereals and grass: a wooden cart pulled by a horse, a mule or a donkey.
