　　The most eye-catching part of the government's recent air-quality strategy is to ban sales of new petrol and diesel cars by 2040. The reason behind the government's strategy is poor air quality, which is thought to be linked to about 40,000 premature deaths a year.

Client Earth, the campaign group leading the call for reform, has described the ban as "not enough". It emphasizes that clean air zones and sustainable transport infrastructures both work, and can be implemented more quickly. Even so, some argue that the target is too soon. The motor industry, however, does not argue that the cars won't be ready in time. This is unsurprising, given that Tesla already has an all-electric model, most manufacturers have at least one hybrid (混合动力汽车) on sale.
