The cost of "gas-guzzling" cars could soar in five years' time under plans from the European Commission.

The commission wants to impose mandatory efficiency standards on all new vehicles sold in Europe as part of a master plan to combat climate change.

Some of the UK's best-known carmakers could be hardest-hit.

Yes, I expect all reamaining car makers to pull out of Britain after this. Only the superich like Prescott will be able to afford a nice car in the future, all based on junk science and ecofascist brainwashing.

Quote:

Environment Commissioner Stavros Dimas now wants mandatory standards that will allow the average car to emit just 120 grams of carbon dioxide (CO2) per kilometre.

That would mean a 1.6 litre petrol Ford Focus would need to cut emissions by a third to qualify as an average vehicle under the new regime.

Milk floats for all.

Quote:

But it is clear that heavyweight luxury cars like Rolls-Royces, Bentleys and Range Rovers will have to invest far more in costly low-pollution technology to reduce their emissions than smaller lighter cars.

Some would say that this is the commie/voodooist axis hitting the people they hate the most.

Quote:

Britain's Society of Motor Manufacturers said the plans threatened jobs in the car industry, particularly for specialist manufacturers.

The ecofascists say they are nuts. Cutting about 0.000000001% of man made co2 is essential in controling the people, I mean saving the planet.

Quote:

They forecast that the plan would add as much as 2,500 euros (£1,650) to some cars, and they warned that European makers would lose out to imported models.

So what, since when did socialism care about being competitive or reataining jobs. Just make some new government jobs harrassing the public or checking through peoples rubbish.

Quote:

He admitted that costs would rise for buyers of top-of-the-range vehicles, but said higher costs for the average consumer would be outweighed by fuel savings over the life of the vehicle.

Errr, if the car is deemed as needing to have the extra tax, doesn't that mean it's not efficient enough in the first place, thus no savings on fuel at all.

Quote:

Mr Dimas told BBC News that people should start talking about climate change as a war.

A war on freedom all based on pseudo science and backed by the commie, voodooist, lefty axis.

Psht, don't be silly.

An Inconvenient Truth quite obviously shows the neutral truth and facts on the matter.

You're just in denial.
