VW execs are a bunch of hypocrites; they only become EVs lovers after getting caught in the emissions scandal and they’re milking EVs cow the harder they can as they know people will end realizing that EVs are globally harmful to the environment.
Hats off to Toyota; they’ve invested on Hybrids a long time ago as a way to make ICE cars more efficient and sustainable.Rally addict since 1982

Funny thing is all the bad press diesels get for harmful emissions VW's sister brand Audi are doing away with petrol engines in their sports 'S' range in favour of Diesel engined versions.

Dieselengines can swallow so many different fuels... even environmental friendly ones.

So can petrol engines...question is, which of the is environmentally friendly? Apart from animal slaughterwaste FAME/gas and waste water gas, i can`t think of any...ok, algaes maybe. And that goes for the production part only. When they burn, it`s quite the opposite.

What is environmental friendly fuel?
Diesel engine's problem is that it either produce a lot of NOx or a lot of solid particles. That is a fact which can not be avoided. Afterwards it needs expensive add-ons to fight them such as SCR or particle filters or lately both. That makes them very complicated and expensive.Stupid is as stupid does. Forrest Gump

When I go to WRC event, I want to see the best drivers as always. If I want to see some national drivers, I can go to some other less popular event.. Just simple.
