Testing at Nurburgring.

[Mr.Tremlini]

Thanks Jon.
That rear wing is WEC Spec!!

Motor manufacturers appear to have an agreement with the DVLA, whereby many technical details are redacted with 'Not available' for prototype vehicles.

I forget which hybrid engine was mentioned for the Valhalla, but the DVLA does not help us.

But the CO2 emissions are declared as zero.

Obviously an EV would be zero, but are hybrids also declared as zero?

PHEV's are not zero emissions, I think the lowest I have seen is the GLC Merc at 11g/km .. there maybe other lower rated cars but for a car with 300 bhp and a 2 litre turbo up front that can also do about 80 miles on electric only, its a pretty low number.

My Mercedes is a mild hybrid, so not a plug-in.
CO2 Emissions 163 g/km
Real Driving Emissions (RDE) 2
[ I don't know what that means. 2 what? ]

The DVLA describe my car as; 'Fuel type Hybrid Electric (Clean)'.
I hope (Clean) does not make it obligatory for me to be an evangelist and become a fluent Wokie speaker.

I do like the 600 mile range though. Completely forget about filling for weeks, until I am suddenly surprised to notice low fuel.
