The motoring supplement in some paper or another today, had an article on how Gordon Brown wants everyone to be running electric cars in 10 years...
But with electricity prices rising so rapidly, will electric cars really be cheaper to run? and more environmentally friendly? (considering the reliance on unenvironmentally friendly sources such as coal power, nuclear power, etc)
With Ford releasing a diesel capable of 76.3mpg (tne new fiesta 1.6 tdci) - do we really need altenative fuels?
