I wonder how it behaves in bad weather - flood/snow/ice/salt spray. |

Mmm, I spotted the "hybrid" option too. Same as Volvo's announcement that all new designs post 2019 won't be solely ICE driven. London taxis too. Hybrids, for some vague definition, seem like the get-out clause to pacify the ecomentals.
What grinds my electrodes is that the problem is on a very few specific NOx deathroads. For example, Central Station in Glasgow spewing forth every single Train Tosser from south of the city to the idling diesel buses and taxis stopped right next to the pollution monitoring box in Hope Street.
Punishing every single road user, urban, suburban and rural, for the fact that city planners have managed to create that density of traffic in a few areas is perverse and pointless. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

This level of detail isn't in the published reports, so it seems that they're making this up as they go along. I'd suspect that they're pre-empting some EU or Californian (i.e. Septic-wide) announcement so that it doesn't look like they're tagging along with the inevritabur.
Car sales are dropping a bit at the moment, so I'd expect to see another ill-thought out scrappage scheme soon as well. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

Ahh, now that is a completely different prospect as was being banded about in the news yesterday, and somewhat more achievable too ____________________ Current Bike: Honda CG125 ES4 // Honda CB600FS Hornet // Triumph Street Triple R |

The concept I was looking for was a flow battery.
Admittedly, a little further to go when we're looking at energy density etc however being able to pump in/out depleted/fresh power would bring it to the forefront usability wise.
Hydrogen cell would be great (work alongside internal combustion hydrogen?) as both applications would require a sensible solution to on board storage.... |
