00:00So, the West, well, in my opinion and the opinion of a lot of people, it's rushed to ban the internal combustion engine.
00:07It's put a lot of unfair pressure on the traditional automakers. What's your opinion on that?
00:14I wish you'd asked me 15 years ago. I went to Wrighton near Coventry to test drive what was then a new Peugeot electric car.
00:24And it was appalling in almost every department in terms of the performance, the ride, the handling, the weight of the batteries, which were the old lead-acid batteries.
00:37This is 15 years ago. That's what an electric car had then.
00:41They made the thing. It was a simple Peugeot hatchback, but the local council in Coventry had decided, of course, Coventry, the home of Jaguar, we might talk about them shortly.
00:51The local council had decided they wanted to be lean, green and mean, and they asked Peugeot to build these electric cars.
00:57Again, it's about 15, 17 years ago. They were appalling.
01:02The quality of electric cars now is fantastic, and the decision has been made.
01:08I hate to be the sort of person who cuts off a good question, but the question should have been asked a long time ago.
01:15The decisions have been made. Carmakers have been compelled. They haven't been asked.
01:20They've been compelled to completely change their products.
01:24An electric car is as different from an internal combustion car as it is from a blinking helicopter.
01:31You might as well ask them to start making flat-screen TVs instead.
01:35A modern electric car shares less than 7% of its components with its internal combustion engine equivalent these days.
01:46It's a completely different product, and if you designed a product to deliver an industry into the hands of China, it would be the electric car.
01:57Calculate the support of smart cars
02:01The environment for your стороны can essentially fit in for you and you can see new cars.
02:07Accounted the 맥s with the electric car.
02:12It's becoming an amazon for you.
02:15The power of electric car signs are worth carrying flowers.
02:18Wait till you wait till you lose your food.
02:24The power of electric car drivers are summoned, you guys, and tu place on them, gather all the mess on the laterium.
