Tyre emissions and road run-off - just two of the topics to be discussed at Tyre Emissions & Sustainability Europe 2026, on 7-8 July in Berlin.
Over 20 top speakers on the nature, measurement and mitigation of tyre pollution...

HAVING SUCKED UP TO THE CCP, THE EU NOW WHINES ABOUT IT: "At a meet last week in Casablanca, Chinese firms held #Morocco key to EU car parts supply chains. Renault and Peugeot's Stellantis have big plants there, complicating any trade defence measures." https://t.co/kzBajOygbl
If you buy the new Ferrari Luce as a company car you can deduct 100% of the purchase price from your taxable profits…. So if your profits exceed £250k, buying a Luce would save you £125k in corporation tax. This ludicrous tax loophole is why so many new EV’s are sold. According to gov figures 78% of all EV’s are bought through a busienss. If this tax loophole didn’t exist the number of new EV’s being sold in the UK would be staggeringly lower.
>>New initiative to understand the intersection between air quality pollution and effects on mental health<<
We welcome the launch of the Air Quality and Mental Health Research Consortium, which will curate the latest academic research on this topic:

US electric cars only win quickly if forced by environmental standards
With regulation, 40-46% of all cars will be electric by 2050
Without regulation, 18% by 2050
Without regulation, most people still want gas cars at least till 2040

@au_tom_otive The trend is only going one way though. And we should note also - ICE vehicles have been getting much heavier, and there are lots more of them.
@b280c_2 It hasn't been debunked, as BEVs are, as a matter of simple empirical fact, about 400 kg heavier than a normal car. Depends a bit on whether the comparison is like-for-like or what people are actually buying, but the answer is essentially the same.
@AndyatAuto@_HenryBolton@MayorofLondon@Ed_Miliband Poor maintenance does effect tyre wear in terms of larger particles, but there are no enough HGV-miles to dominate cars - the weight of BEVs is critical at the aggregate level. Especially for nanoparticle emissions, and particularly as car tyres are chemically more hazardous.
This week's video is a dive into what's going on in the car industry today. Crazy times..

Nuclear power in Korea costs £30 per megawatt hour. In Britain it costs six times that.
Juliet Samuel on how they did it - and what Britain would have to do to match them.

Astonishing. I'm currently doing sum wrytin on these very subjects and figured out battery prices had flat-lined, but here's the proof. This chart should be in every newspaper.
Aaron Puhala (Arclin) will present on designing tyre materials for a more sustainable future, addressing performance, durability and environmental considerations.

We are pleased to welcome Craig Klaasmeyer, Founder & CEO of Kaizen Clean Energy.
Craig will present “Transforming Off-Highway Machinery with Hydrogen-Powered Solutions”, offering a practical view of where hydrogen can genuinely add value today.
Join us in Indianapolis, 20–21 May
The biggest risks in renewable fuels often don’t show up in routine tests.
Hidden or trace compounds can affect emissions, performance, or downstream acceptance.
Advanced fuels analysis = better risk management.
