Together, they hold six kilograms of hydrogen, giving the BMW iX5 Hydrogen a range of 504 km in the WLTP cycle. Refuelling the hydrogen tanks takes only three to four minutes, meaning that the BMW iX5 Hydrogen delivers the driving pleasure you expect from BMW with just a few, short interim stops, even on long routes.
After RS's pasting in the local you know what's, he must extend the EV deadline back to 2040 to stop the rot with a referendum to see if people want this.

Drove my friends brand new picked up Model Y Performance today... I have to say I was quite impressed.

At inital glance, well put together, no gaps, rattles or creaks... maybe the '23s fixed everything.

The thing is spaceship fast... it doesn't have the top end of say an M3 but it does trap 115 mph which is very fast for an SUV... but it's really the down low instant torque punch that is hard to describe... its almost painful lol.

A few things that are not my cup... the interior is very spartan but functional. The center screen is a little annoying in how it displays everything... and no carplay irritates me to no end. The brakes I also don't believe are up to par for a car w 535 HP... last - the auto braking on throtthle release is just super weird and annoying.

All else aside, I could see this as being my 2nd car if it was reliable.

They are unbeatable in the real world. That’s why everyone loves them.

I do hate not having apple car play but in the end that isn’t a deal breaker at all.

I have a 2022 with no rattles. They’re just getting better and better each year!!!

We’re moving in the right direction!!!!!

I wouldn't want to be in any EV with known tendencies for brake failure, accelerating on full power for no reason, carrying straight on into undergrowth or buildings and failing to take a bend when programmed for self drive..nooo way.

Cool. Lots of us ev drivers experienced none of those things.

With throttle by Wire, brake by wire and steer by wire in modern day ice cars that can happen to anyone but yeah it’s cool to just blame ev like always.

Our future is secured. Ev will take care of us!!!!

It's a long video but basically the fun starts from the 13th minute on so you could skip and start watching from then and I really do echo his thoughts on the matter

That council is like it has a Sheriff of Nottingham leading it from Robin Hood times.

Britains car industry is under threat of collapse if it continues its blind path towards only new EV cars at 2030, there is no back up plan for newer battery pack supply, the race is already lost putting 800,000 jobs at risk.

Mechanics are suddenly going to be a lot more popular with everyone wanting to keep their ICE cars running for as long as possible...

If there's any reason not to buy a Tesla it is because of that man. He is a terrible human being and has zero emotional intelligence.

For him it's all about the money and stroking his own ego.
