Cars With Combustion Engines Will Be Banned In Europe
The ban on polluting cars, such as gasoline and diesel, in Europe is getting closer; however, the banning of combustion engines may occur covertly, through very strict emission rules, making manufacturing unfeasible.
As a result, some companies are seeking ways to transform conventional cars into electric vehicles by replacing the entire system, such as Swindon, which created a universal motor that has 110 horsepower, and London Electric Cars, which can transform classic models, such as the Mini Cooper, into electric cars.
