Carmaker says it will ‘press ahead’ with plans to achieve 100% EV in Europe and all new models will be entirely electric

    No car company is going to suddenly change plans, that would make no sense, especially when the government shows they are unreliable anyway.

      Yea sunaks change doesn’t matter, bigger markets already have full ev rules by x date and Nissan (and others) have aligned their business to meet those. Likely at costs of tens of billions in r&d and factory retooling, they aren’t going to switch back to ICE because the UK pushed their date by a few years

      Especially when the party who are massively ahead in the polls have said they’ll reintroduce the 2030 when if they get elected.

      It really doesn’t make sense for them to put off making electric vehicles, considering that’s where the market is going anyways.

    Who cares. Electric Cars aren’t a solution to anything, and if climate change was actually the priority of any government the discussion would be phasing out personal Automobiles by 2030, not talking about EVs.

      Dumb dumb dumb.

      “Hospitals to enact rule compelling doctors and surgeons to wash hands.”

      “Who cares? That won’t get rid of all bacteria and viruses existing, just reduce infection rates and improve the entire healthcare industry.”

        Washing hands is a solution to patients dying after doctors perform autopsies. Electric cars exist to save the automobile industry which is an industry and societal structure that shouldn’t exist in the first place.

      Our entire cities are built wrong for that approach. I’m with you on the spirit, I mean, building suburban sprawl post-2000 should be a literal crime with jail time. But the fact is that our cities are what they are. Suburbia is built for cars, and there’s a crap load of it that people will still be living in post-2030.

      But but but remote combustion vehicles are going to get us to net zero.

      The religion of insanely expensive remote combustion vehicles is pure entertainment gold

      So if you buy a Nissan for your teenage kid, is Nissan still allowed to track and share their sexual escapades performed within the vehicle?

      Also, how do they know when you’re engaged in sexual activity? Heart monitors in the seats? Humidity sensors in the AC unit? Or is it cameras in the cabin? Cause that’s a very fine line to walk.

        I would imagine it gathers data like that from your phone if/when you connect that to your car. Probably via the integrated health tracking stuff. I imagine Nissan forces you to share all data but maybe it’s possible to opt out or choose what to share?

          My phone knows when I have sex? I mean, it’s on the nightstand so… maybe, but, how? It’s not like we’re wearing our watches to bed.

            I think it’s more like your health app has the ability to record that data if you put it in there. Just like how it can record your weight if you log your weight every day or how it could record your heart rate if you wear a connected watch which can log that data.

            It doesn’t just “know” but I think if you have the data logged that is what it will share.
