Quotes

Richard O'Sullivan, commercial director at Johnson Matthey, says: "Diesel engines are a valuable power source but their emissions are known to contribute to air pollution and can cause respiratory health problems. For existing machines these emissions are best dealt with at source, through the use of retrofit exhaust after treatment."
"That's going to be tough for everyone, especially those small players as they will have to use more fuel-efficient engines and invest in hybrid technologies" said Yale Zhang, director of Greater China vehicle forecasts at consultancy CSM Worldwide
"The new 1.5-litre unit further extends our EcoBoost promise of economical driving in terms of both fuel efficiency and - in some markets - tax savings."
But the writer added: "Manufacturers working on fuel cell vehicles generally hope to shrink the price to about $50,000 by 2015."
