To blame only the U.K. ZEV mandate for Luton Plant closure is disingenuous.  I explain to the Telegraph.  I enjoyed being called “the eminence grise of the British car industry”

Stellantis closing the Luton factory is devastating for the 1,100 workers. It’ll be convenient to blame this on the ZEV Mandate, but it’s down to a combination of headwinds (including Chinese EV competition) the European auto industry has been facing. Beware simply rolling back on ZEV targets!

Tragic news of job cuts at Ford; the result of misinterpreting the direction of the market. At a time when the market is crying out for affordable EVs, Ford have pivoted towards higher-end crossover SUV models, like the Capri & Explorer. More expensive cars results in a lower volume of sales.

The Aston Martin Valkyrie is a 1,140 bhp road-legal hypercar that smashed the production car lap record for the Silverstone GP circuit with an unprecedented time of 1 minute 56.42 seconds. More than 10 seconds faster than any other road-legal production car. Here’s mine 👇🏻

A reminder of why the pursuit of net zero is important and the need of all countries and all sectors, including and especially the transport sector, to play their part no matter how small.
