More posts about reducing these particulates (from tire and brake wear) please.
- VBprogrammer 4y agoElectric vehicles definitely help with particulates from braking. I don't see why they couldn't do active electric braking if required, as apposed to just regeneration.
- Tade0 4y agoAudi has a familiar-looking idea how to tackle this: https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/press-releases/audi-urban-purifier-the-fine-dust-filter-for-electric-vehicles-14949 https://www.audi-mediacenter.com/en/press-releases/audi-urba... Internal combustion cars do filter a lot of the ambient air already - a 2.0l engine at 2500RPM filters 150m3 of air per hour - that's as much as a small air purifier. It's just that it takes all this clean air and uses it for combustion, thus putting in more dirt than it filtered out.
- specialist 4y agoAudi Urban Purifier's turns autos into Roombas. Neat. Also, I'm wondering about tires which pollute less. Both in their production and usage. To reduce particulates during use, I'm guessing tires will need to be tougher, less grippy. So might require better active suspension and braking systems to maintain current comfort and safety standards.
