Tip: the company is looking for investors to build a conversion kit for cars!
The most environmentally friendly car is the rebuilt one, not the newly built one. It is clear that the production of a conversion kit causes significantly fewer emissions than the construction of a completely new electric car, according to our calculations only about half. Instead of scrapping all of the almost 50 million passenger cars with combustion engines that are on German roads, it would be better if we converted them.
