Overview

At a time when climate change and sustainability are key issues in our society, the question arises: are classic cars really more harmful to the environment in everyday life than new cars? This book examines the concept of sustainability from a new perspective. The author takes readers on an exciting journey through the world of automotive history and modern environmental technologies to uncover the truth about the environmental footprint of classic cars compared to the latest vehicle models - including electric vehicles. With a mix of scientific research and case studies, this book shows that classic cars, often seen as polluters, can be sustainable in many ways. It presents surprising findings that prove that the life cycle analysis of a vehicle - from production to use to disposal - plays a key role in assessing its environmental footprint. Readers will learn how the preservation and restoration of classic cars can make a significant contribution to resource conservation by using existing materials and avoiding the production of new vehicles. In addition, innovative approaches are presented that enable the integration of modern technologies into classic vehicles, which can significantly increase their efficiency and environmental friendliness. In addition, some ultra-modern mobility solutions can be better realized with a classic car than with a new car. This book impressively demonstrates that tradition and innovation can go hand in hand to create a more environmentally friendly future. Discover how historic vehicles are not only a piece of cultural heritage, but can also be part of the solution in our global environmental debate.
