It only applies to new vehicles produced after 2040, there will still
be a lot of petrol/diesel engined cars on the road for many years
after that.


I predict a big boost in sales of new petrol and diesel cars in 2039 :-)


You would buy a car when the fuel will become harder to find?
As cars get scraped the garages will close due to lack of fuel sales and
anyone buying the last of the fuel driven cars will end up with no fuel
or expensive fuel long before the vehicle has worn out.

Maybe you will be able to synthesis it from gas and electricity by then?
