Izingqapheli eziningi zibikezela ukuthi ukushintshela emhlabeni ezimotweni zikagesi kuzokwenzeka ngokushesha kakhulu kunalokho obekulindelwe.Manje, i-BBC nayo ijoyina ingxabano.“Okwenza ukuphela kwenjini evuthayo yangaphakathi kube uguquko kwezobuchwepheshe.Futhi izinguquko kwezobuchwepheshe zivame ukwenzeka ngokushesha ... [futhi] lokhu kuguquguquka kuzoba ngogesi,” kubika uJustin Rowlett we-BBC.
U-Rowlett ukhomba ngasekupheleni kweminyaka yama-90s njengesibonelo.“Kulabo ababengakangeni ngemvume [ku-inthanethi] konke kwakubonakala kujabulisa futhi kuthakazelisa kodwa kungenamsebenzi—kungaba usizo kangakanani ukuxhumana ngekhompyutha?Phela sinawo amafoni!Kodwa i-inthanethi, njengabo bonke ubuchwepheshe obusha obuphumelelayo, ayizange ilandele indlela eqondile yokubusa umhlaba.… Ukukhula kwayo bekuqhume futhi kuphazamisa,” kuphawula uRowlett.
Ngakho-ke izimoto zikagesi ze-EEC zizohamba ngokushesha kangakanani?“Impendulo ishesha kakhulu.Njenge-inthanethi ngeminyaka yawo-'90s, imakethe yezimoto zikagesi egunyaza i-EEC isivele ikhula kakhulu.Ukuthengiswa kwezimoto zikagesi emhlabeni wonke kuqhubekele phambili ngo-2020, kukhuphuke ngamaphesenti angama-43 kwafinyelela ku-3.2m, yize ukuthengiswa kwezimoto sekukonke kwehle ngengxenye yesihlanu ngesikhathi sodlame lwe-coronavirus,” kubika i-BBC.
NgokukaRowlett, “Siphakathi nenguquko enkulu kunazo zonke kwezokuthutha kusukela ulayini wokuqala kaHenry Ford wokukhiqiza waqala ukubuyela emuva ngo-1913.”
Ufuna ubufakazi obengeziwe?“Abakhiqizi bezimoto ezinkulu emhlabeni bacabanga kanjalo…. AbakwaGeneral Motors bathi bazokwakha izimoto zikagesi kuphela ngo-2035, abakwaFord bathi zonke izimoto ezidayiswa e-Europe zizobe sezisebenza ngogesi ngo-2030 kanti kwaVW bathi u-70% wezinto ezithengiswayo zizobe sezisebenza ngogesi ngo-2030.”
Abakhiqizi bezimoto emhlabeni nabo bayangena kulesi senzo: “I-Jaguar ihlela ukudayisa izimoto zikagesi kuphela kusukela ngo-2025, iVolvo kusukela ngo-2030 futhi [kamuva] inkampani yezimoto zezemidlalo yaseBrithani iLotus ithe izolandela lesi sigameko, ithengise izinhlobo zikagesi kuphela kusukela ngo-2028.”
U-Rowlett ukhulume nomsakazi wangaphambili we-Top Gear u-Quentin Wilson ukuthola umbono wakhe ngoguquko lukagesi.Wake wagxeka izimoto zikagesi, uWilson uthanda iTesla Model 3 yakhe entsha, ethi, “Intofontofo ngokwedlulele, inomoya, iyakhanya.Kumane kuyinjabulo ephelele.Futhi ngingasho ngokungananazi kuwe manje ukuthi ngeke ngiphinde ngibuyele emuva.”
