Genius idea. Just think, you could make that engine smaller, put it in the car and get it to drive the wheels directly. That would reduce efficiency loses. I'm off to patent my idea.

Can anyone explain to me how nearly doubling the price paid to those who generate electricity will help reduce household bills? It seems economics has changed since I learned the basic principles.

Price paid for offshore power to rise by over 50%

The increase in the price paid to generate electricity aims to entice energy firms to invest.

My 1972 Lancia Fulvia gives me a notification if a tyre has dropped to half the required pressure. The tyre looks flat and the car unlevel. No need to rely on an app, my eyes can spot it directly.

My Model Y sent a notification to my phone overnight. 📲 “Rear left tire pressure is very low. Please check pressure before driving.” Sure enough, I’ve got a leak. What other car can do that? 🤙 (That also means it’s time to replace my factory tires after 70k miles)

If I had a fuel station at the moment I would introduce a £50 minimum charge - buy as much as you want, no limit but if you are topping up because you just drove 20 miles and don't want to run out then go ahead, but 2 litres will cost £50. That would stop panic buying!

This is potentially very clever but we currently raise nearly £30bn tax a year from motorists in the UK and can't maintain the roads. EVs avoid most of that tax so who is going to pay to install and maintain this? And when happens when a pothole appears and a live wire breaks?
