Hybrid and electric vehicles have continued to transform the future sustainability of the automotive sector. Major manufacturers have invested heavily in research, development and strategic collaborations in order to expand the capabilities of hybrid and electric vehicles as governments and global society push for further emissions reduction. Continued innovation in technology and powertrain development will play a vital role in optimizing vehicle energy efficiency and reducing costs in order to create viable solutions for the future of personal mobility. In a rapidly evolving sector, it is imperative to have a key understanding of innovation and development trends in Hybrid and EV powertrains.

Just got back from the Tesla UK Launch event last night. I'll be putting pictures up in our Gallery soon! The event marked the launch of Tesla’s first sales showroom in Europe. The new showroom is located in Knightsbridge – one of the best areas to be in London, right around the corner from Harrods. I had the opportunity to meet some fantastic people, including Elon Musk as well as his wonderful sister and mother who flew in for the special occasion. They also revealed for the Roadster Sport, which according to Elon Musk “is as fast around the track as a Porsche GT3”. In the past, I’ve had the opportunity to drive the Roadster around a track and it is blazingly fast – I can’t imagine how this one could get any faster. I think this is a great start for Tesla and Europe will really launch the Tesla to new heights. In the meantime, I’ll look forward to the video of a Roadster Sport vs. a GT3!

A quick thank you to our delegates and supporters for your overwhelming response to our Electric Vehicle Infrastructure conference “Unlocking the Grid” which just took place this week! There was a great discussion and a wide range of people from all different industries. It was fantastic to see the enthusiasm for the infrastructure challenge. Also, it was interesting to see that there is much more to infrastructure development than meets the eye – but I guess that only means more avenues for truly creative thinking!
