Designer James Dyson says his company will spend nearly billion to introduce an all-electric car by 2020. Dyson is a British billionaire best known for revolutionizing the vacuum cleaner. dust and hand dryer in the toilet.
Elon Musk and James Dyson’s motivation to create electric cars is not to sell more cars, but instead, they see the design of cars as a large-scale problem tied to a real problem. Globally it’s pollution and climate change.

Dyson told Business Insider that since the late 1980s, he’d been interested in developing a completely different type of electric vehicle and wasn’t disappointed with the efforts that went into solving the problem.
“In 1988, I read an article from the US National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, which said that exhaust from diesel engines caused premature death of laboratory mice,” he said. “In March 1990, a team within the company Dyson began working on a cyclone-type filter mounted on a vehicle’s exhaust system to trap radioactive particles.”
In 1993, Dyson said, the first prototype was ready – but no one was interested in the technology. Dyson is shocked by this, and he doesn’t believe automakers and the government will push for so-called “clean diesel” engines while companies like Volkswagen can still cheat on quality checks. emissions.
“From start to finish, it’s still just my ambition to find a solution to the global air pollution problem.” He added: “Now we finally have the opportunity to bring all of our technology into a single product. Instead of filtering the exhaust at the exhaust, we now have the ability to tackle the problem at its root. So, I want to tell you directly: Dyson has started working on a battery-powered electric car , which is expected to launch in 2020.”
Billionaire Elon Musk – boss of Tesla and SpaceX.
Dyson’s engine is similar to Elon Musk’s with Tesla cars. They both recognize that in a modern capitalist economy, where consumer spending makes up 70% of domestic GDP, the best way to be productive is to propose changes. large in the products people buy.
The auto business is a trillion dollar business, but 99% of the cars on the market run on gasoline, and emissions are one of the main causes of climate change. If Tesla or Dyson can change this situation with electric cars powered by renewable energy, then consumers can help limit climate change.
But most consumers like attractive products. With Tesla, Musk showed the world a glamorous electric car, given a market cap of billion and 500,000 orders for the Model 3 sedan.
If Dyson can deliver a car that is similar – or even better – then the whole world will be able to move towards an exciting electric vehicle ecosystem that isn’t by assigning governments to automakers. cars comply with emissions or fuel economy regulations, which every consumer can fulfill by saving the Earth.
