Description:
The very nature of HPVs is controversial in the face of global warming and the ongoing assault on “gas guzzling” vehicles and their CO2 emissions.
Implementing Low-Carbon Technologies in High Performance Vehicles will therefore address this conundrum, and will aim to demonstrate that it is possible to still drive SUV's and performance cars without the stigma of people perceiving them to be bad for the environment, compared to other cars. In addition, the seminar will provide positive solutions that can be applied to the mainstream automotive market that will benefit the entire industry.
