When people without their cars? Environment Canada has begun to encourage green cars, which make up the majority of new car options, in the year 2016.

Government contract green car, approximately 30 percent efficient, Environment Canada, while their claims would be 5 percent higher consumer costs for the vehicles an average of $ 25,000 to buy. They add that what consumers lose in the dealership agreement, they will at the pump to get within one or two years, but it obviously depends on the fuel.

Auto analyst Dennis DesRosiers of DesRosiers Automotive Consultants, said: “The government estimates the cost factor is not a subsidy offered to buyers of green vehicles. In addition, the technology required to meet CAFE (corporate average fuel economy) came with a large fuel price immediately. injection, lightweight materials, advanced transmissions, cylinder deactivation system, which produces gas as diesel combustion engine and everything else costs more than $ 1,200 per vehicle to develop and produce for the market.

Many car experts wondering who will pay for all this infrastructure from a fleet of electric vehicles and if the government had actually includes all production costs”advanced green technology in the car. Technologies such as plug-in hybrids, electric cars, pure, petrol and diesel-electric hybrid car that runs and ultra-clean diesel as part of their fleet-wide fuel cars we can expect.

Over the next six years, Canada and the United States should create new fuel economy standards for new vehicles to set. In 2016, a new stanadars see consumers driving to a combined average of 6.6 liters / 100 km or 35.5 miles to the gallon U.S. to get.

“Let me say what everyone refuses to admit: These standards are impossible,” says DesRosiers meet. Think about this: In Canada we have seen 1.0 liters per 100 km improvement in the last 25 years, the transition from 11 liters per 100 km to 10 liters per 100 kilometers. Approximately 10 percent. And this is the era of technology is unprecedented. Does anyone really believe that we get to the bottom of 7.0 liters per 100 km away in six years in the future? I understand the potential of hybrid, electric and other advanced powertrain, but this level of improvement can not be achieved. “
