    Interesting to see data comparing an electric car produced and driven in Sweden (-81% CO2 vs Petrol), versus an electric car produced in China and driven in Poland (-28% CO2 vs Petrol).

    But that's assuming you're buying a new car anyway. How about a comparison to keeping an older car on the road? Very important to remember that the green solution is not for us to all run out and buy new EV's.

    Not a popular opinion on a motoring forum I'm sure, but proper public transport (high speed rail, metro and even cycling the last mile) is the long term answer for the majority in cities. If I could get the train to work though, I'd have an M3 for the weekends.
