As we know, thermal cars have had no wind in their sails for some time now. Even worse, public authorities are doing everything possible to make these vehicles disappear, they are accused of all evils and, above all, of destroying the environment. Although it has been proven that the polluting emissions of the automotive industry are actually a drop in the ocean, especially compared to maritime transport in particular. But in any case, this applies to a car with an internal combustion engineEuropean Union persisted, until they voted to ban their sale from 2035. The deadline is very close, which forces manufacturers to review their plans and increase investments for the electrification of their range. But some brands see things a little differently.

Europe has agreed to phase out the use of heat engines by 2035. However, the fuel tax is an important source of revenue for the French state. https://t.co/M17WH4kOC3

The future solution?

If some prefer to believe in hydrogen, others continue to think that heat engines still have a bright future ahead of them. But not thanks to fuel made from non-renewable raw materials. Indeed, we know that Porsche has been working for many years to develop a synthetic fuel that would then work almost like the gasoline we already know. But what we know less is that the German firm is not the only one interested in this. Indeed, this also applies to Lamborghini, which recently confirmed its interest in this type of fuel. In an interview with the Drive website, a spokesperson confirmed that ” we keep the door open to synthetic fuel internal combustion engines“.

Several options

for Francesco ScardaoniLamborghini Asia Pacific Director, “ The ideal scenario would be to have purely electric cars – such as the fourth model we will introduce in 2028 – and super sports cars, perhaps with internal combustion engines running on synthetic fuel.“. There are currently no details on the arrival of a hypothetical sports car powered by such technology. But if it was, thenhybridization rumored to still be in the game.

Nevertheless, and if the situation remains very tense, she is still experiencing a small lull! https://t.co/U7VGNp8b0v
