Abantu abaninzi ababukeleyo baqikelela ukuba utshintsho lwehlabathi kwiimoto zombane luza kwenzeka ngokukhawuleza kunokuba bekulindelwe.Ngoku, i-BBC nayo ijoyina ingxabano.“Into eyenza ukuba isiphelo se-injini yomlilo yangaphakathi singathinteleki lutshintsho lobuchwepheshe.Kwaye iinguqu kwezobuchwepheshe zidla ngokwenzeka ngokukhawuleza … [kwaye] olu tshintsho luza kuba luqhutywa ngumbane,” utsho njalo uJustin Rowlett weBBC.
U-Rowlett walatha ekupheleni kwee-'90s ze-intanethi njengomzekelo.“Kwabo bebengekangeni [kwi-intanethi] yonke into ibibonakala inika umdla kwaye inika umdla kodwa ingenamsebenzi — ingaba luncedo kangakanani ukunxibelelana ngekhompyutha?Ngapha koko, sineefowuni!Kodwa i-intanethi, njengabo bonke ubuchwephesha obutsha obuphumeleleyo, ayizange ilandele indlela eya kulawulo lwehlabathi.… Ukukhula kwayo bekugqabhukile kwaye kuphazamisa,” utshilo uRowlett.
Ngoko ke iimoto zombane ze-EEC ziya kuhamba ngokukhawuleza kangakanani?“Impendulo ikhawuleza kakhulu.Njenge-intanethi ngeminyaka yee-'90s, imarike yemoto yombane evunyiweyo ye-EEC sele ikhula ngokukhawuleza.Ukuthengiswa kweemoto zombane kwihlabathi jikelele kuqhubele phambili ngo-2020, kunyuke nge-43% ukuya kwi-3.2m iyonke, ngaphandle kokuthengiswa kweemoto kukonke kwehle ngesihlanu ngexesha lobhubhani we-coronavirus, ”ingxelo ye-BBC.
NgokukaRowlett, "Siphakathi kolona tshintsho lukhulu lwezemoto ukusukela oko umgca wokuqala wemveliso kaHenry Ford waqala ukubuya umva ngo-1913."
Ngaba ufuna ubungqina obungakumbi?“Abenzi beenqwelo-mafutha abakhulu behlabathi bacinga ukuba [njalo]… UGeneral Motors uthi bazakwenza iimoto zombane kuphela ngo-2035, abakwaFord bathi zonke iimoto ezithengiswa eYurophu ziya kuba sezombane ngo-2030 kwaye uVW uthi i-70% yentengiso yazo iza kuba ngumbane ngo-2030.”
Kwaye abavelisi beenqwelo-mafutha behlabathi nabo bayangena kweli nyathelo: “I-Jaguar iceba ukuthengisa iimoto zombane kuphela ukususela ngo-2025, iVolvo ukususela ngo-2030 kwaye [kutsha nje] inkampani yaseBritane yemoto yezemidlalo iLotus ithe iza kulandela, ithengise kuphela iimodeli zombane ukususela ngo-2028.”
U-Rowlett uthethe nowayesakuba ngumamkeli we-Top Gear u-Quentin Wilson ukuze athathele ingqalelo uguquko lombane.Xa sele egxeka iimoto zombane, uWilson uyayithanda iTesla Model 3 yakhe entsha, esithi, “Intofontofo kakhulu, inomoya, iqaqambile.Luvuyo nje olupheleleyo.Kwaye ngoku ndingatsho ngokuphandle ukuba andisoze ndiphinde ndibuye.”
