IF YOU’RE ABOUT TO ORDER THAT TESLA, THEN WAIT JUST A MINUTE BECAUSE THE NEW JAGUAR I-PACE, THE BRAND’S FIRST EVER EV, MIGHT JUST STEAL A MARCH ON RIVALS...
The petrol engine is a living, breathing organism. Just like a human being with blood pumping through their veins, the combustion powerplant ingests its daily diet — comprising unleaded fuel and oxygen — to generate seamless forward motion while the remains are spat out of its exhaust pipes.
There’s a beautiful elegance to the sophistication with which a modern petrol engine goes about its business. Depending on whether you’re ensconced within a Rolls- Royce Phantom or Lamborghini Huracan, you’re either blissfully unaware of the violence taking place within the combustion chambers, or intimately connected to it. Just like any individual you know, each engine has its own traits and personality. However, the days of the combustion engine are numbered. It may take a few decades before they vanish, but there’s no getting around the fact that the earth’s reserves of fossil fuels are not inexhaustible. Plus, there’s the fact that petrol engines are not the optimum solution when it comes to preserving the quality of the air we breathe.
