London's £25 congestion charge scrapped

Rated 4 out of 54

Ben Pulman, 08 July 2008 09:30

The UK's £25 congestion charge is no more following a consent order that legally brings a formal end to any court proceedings between Porsche, Transport for London and the London mayor. In his pre-election plans Boris Johnson had always stood against the proposed charge – a huge hike from today's £8-a-day charge. Once in power, Johnson’s legal team advised him ...

Porsche contests TfL CO2 claims

Rated 5 out of 55

Stephen Dobie, 10 April 2008 16:51

Transport for London has been quick to deny reports that the new £25 congestion charge will actually increase CO2 emissions. Porsche had unearthed a report for the Mayor and TfL that showed a projected 182,000 tonne increase in CO2 in Greater London as a result of extra miles driven outside of the c-charge zone because of the increased toll. The ...

Porsche has officially filed a judicial review challenge against the London congestion charge increase. It follows TfL and the London mayor’s rejection of Porsche’s request for changes to the proposed £25-a-day charge.

Ben Pulman, 11 March 2008 17:23

Porsche is on a collision course with the authorities planning London’s proposed £25-a-day congestion charge – and it emerged today that the two parties could end up in court. Lawyers acting for TfL and the mayor’s office have rejected the sports car maker’s request for changes to the tax, which is set to treble from today’s £8 charge. Porsche said ...

Fiat Panda Aria and Grande Punto Abarth SS

Rated 2 out of 52

Guy Bird, 17 September 2007 02:50

Aria goes green, Abarth gets sporty, 500 goes large… Fiat’s signature white stand featured both ends of the car spectrum: From the eco Panda Aria concept to a new even sportier version of the Grande Punto, the Abarth SS prototype. It arguably had the best show stand gimmick at Frankfurt too – a giant Fiat 500 model the size of ...

Toyota iQ

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Tim Pollard, 11 September 2007 02:53

Toyota iQ: the lowdown The Japanese scored one of the very few surprises of the Frankfurt show this year, with the titchy iQ concept car that previews Toyota’s new sub-Aygo city car. It’s one of our favourite cars at the show, bristling with intelligent new thinking and design flourishes to make small cars interesting again. And the best news is ...

Secrets of Mazda 2 diet regime

Rated 2 out of 52

Ben Pulman, 23 July 2007 02:19

So what’s all the fuss about then? Weight, or in the case of the Mazda 2, a lack of it. CO2 emissions are the biggest issue for the car industry right now, and governments around the globe are seemingly obsessed with one single gas. It's a problem affecting everyone - from supercar manufacturers like Porsche to volume players like Mazda. ...

Mitsubishi i (2007) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Guy Bird, 11 June 2007 09:35

Haven’t we seen this somewhere before? Not the European version, no. The diminutive Mitsubishi i city car closely resembles the ‘Concept i’ shown back in Frankfurt 2003 and a production version has been on sale in Japan since January 2006 – and CAR Online drove the Japanese version recently. But from 1 July 2007, you’ll be able to buy this ...
