According to the Guardian, more and more people buying cars through this new scheme are opting for greener and smaller models now.
Under EU law, by 2015, average emission across European fleets will have to emit less than 130g/km CO2. UK has been criticised by transport campaigners for lagging behind Portugal, Italy and Spain on average levels of CO2. Since launching the scheme, there is a welcome boost for new car registrations. The scheme is successful in reducing the average CO2 emission and putting safer cars on the roads.
The preliminary analysis by experts shows scrappage scheme buyers are switching to smaller and more efficient cars. US’s ‘cash- for- clunkers’ scheme is on similar patterns to UK’s scrappage scheme and according to the US administration, cars bought through their scheme are 63% less polluting than the older ones.
Major manufacturers are planning to bring in more electric car launches, with low-cost batteries, hoping to make their prices competitive, which would make people more comfortable buying electric cars.
All the more essential is it to engage an advanced method of vehicle tracking system for total efficiency of greener vehicles. C-track provides an effective and result oriented tracking system, which offers many benefits and financial returns to all car ,van and commercial vehicle fleet through improved visibility and control that comes from knowing the exact locations and status of vehicles in real time.
C-Track’s vehicle tracking system will pay for itself by helping companies reduce their overheads like labour, fuel costs and by increasing the productivity of mobile employees. Companies can also reduce their fleet controlling costs, utilising available resources to maximise profits and performance.
