Porsche Is Not Giving Up on Gas

[@eamonshields2754]

I think ICEs still have a long way to go. Liquid Piston and other projects promise to squeeze much more power out of them

[@zombl337og]

these vehicles will always exist for enthusiasts or ppl who just dont like full EVs

[@LifePlayDream]

People with inflated ego ay?

[@matthew8153]

There’s not enough cobalt in the Earth to make enough batteries for even the US market. There’s also not enough African child slave labor to mine the cobalt.

[@Readmore681]

Manufacturing and disposal of batteries are extremely harmful for the planet.

[@ykvs]

yeah ev is not that good with its battery degrading. Im not fan of ev now, but if they fixed the battery life span i would be.

[@GT-22]

Once someone tries a good EV, Tesla etc. It is near impossible to go back to ICE. No more high fuel costs, no more service costs as there are far less parts to fail. Therefore this E-fuel will be an enthusiast thing only. Which is good as there is no way the large fuel companies can keep their ecosystem going for just a few million "collector" cars that will still need fuel. So this is a good development overall.

[@Old_and_Wise]

Diesel is already way more efficient than standard. Why more cars haven't switched to diesel is beyond me.

[@Diontb]

because it sucks for almost everything but economy lol

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

Way too dirty.

[@Old_and_Wise]

@@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921 It's also guaranteed to be way cheaper than whatever proprietary fuel they're reporting on. Diesel, despite looking dirty, is actually cleaner and way more efficient than regular gasoline. This means cars can go farther without needing to refuel as often. I'm not saying it's the ultimate solution, but as for why we haven't implemented it as the standard right now while waiting for other solutions to become cost effective is beyond me 🤷

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

@@Old_and_Wise Nope the particulate matter from Diesel is way worse than gas. Diesel is the first product in crack distillation of oil.

I gave a presentation about e-fuels in my college back in 2013. Its awesome. 30, 40, 60

[@droneographytv8848]

The best energy solution is not one great solution. That would be a disaster for consumers as there will be no compitition and the providers can raise prices ad high as possible. The best solution is a wide range of environmentally friendly fuel sources which provides option hence creating compitition in quality and pricing. Best of all, consumers will have options.

[@shrimpinpat]

Is this in addition to their test plant in Costa Rica

[@retrogamerfan123]

The flying delorean is the best version of ev fuel just chuck in some rotten food and your good to go

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

Methanol burning engines last less than half of gas engines.

[@ayoCC]

it still puts CO2 into the air so I don't think it will actually catch on. Wealthy societies have the wealth effect, so they can actually choose against putting CO2 into the air. It will be a pretty small market, but some fuel still needs to be around for some applications, and harvesting it from carbon capture is fine. I don't see it being a lasting thing though, since CO2 won't be around forever

[@maxkick7656]

Shame on them.

[@robertbula]

hydrogen is the most abundant element in the universe, we should all move towards it and it’s clean

[@MishiTariq-t4f]

Good let s keep cool ice cars going

[@ekkkrem]

its not porch bro its porSCHE @willyd

[@MrMinecraftLestFail]

As a Porsche i can say it's pronounced PorSCHE.

Hell yeah. Donut media was on site. 40$ per litter . Still cheaper then the hydro rates am paying in alberta lol

Gasoline is still cleaner. The vast majority of electricity is generated by burning coal… not to mention the pollution caused by spills in transit

[@asnaeb2]

False. Gasonile converts to only 40% efficiency in a car because it wastes all the heat. Big turbines convert it to electricity far more efficient.

[@fergawesome3732]

@@asnaeb2 And when the wind isn’t blowing? I also recall Texas’ blizzard the other year froze the turbines and caused power outages. Not saying wind isn’t effective- just not as effective as tried and true gasoline

[@JohnSmith-pn2vl]

@@asnaeb2 absolutely false, it doesnt even remotely come close even 15% at all. an ev comes over 80% today and in the future over 95% is possible, if you charge at home with solar you are already above 90%.

[@JohnSmith-pn2vl]

it is not clean at all, a gasoline vehicle consumes more electricity than an ev driving the same range. gasoline gets pumpen from the ground with electricity, travels with huge tanker ships, then needs to get boild over 900° in refinery, this all uses electricity. even if 100% of the energy made to drive an ev is made with pure coal it is still way cleaner than any ice car. forget that gasoline is clean, it is not, at all. most of the time 90% of the energy is wasted because of terrible inneficiency.

[@sert27de]

crap excuse not being able to evolve

[@RahulDas-xu3fq]

First

[@Maxim.Teleguz]

Save yourself some time all they talk about is “efuel” without defining what that mixture is.

[@Vintage27]

What?

[@JohnSmith-pn2vl]

doesnt matter because it is always worse than hydrogen and hydrogen is absolutely terrible, it makes 0 sense whatsoever.
