The 2022 British Motor Show aims to be the greenest motor show ever thanks to a series of eco initiatives.
Uniquely, every vehicle associated with the British Motor Show, held at Farnborough International on August 18-21, will be run on sustainable biofuel.
This will include support vehicles, shuttle vehicles and cars used in live events and test drives.
The petrol and diesel will be supplied by fuel provider Coryton: its Sustain brand of sustainable biofuel is made from agricultural waste.
The company produces more than 4,000 unique blends of fuel each year, powering race cars, jet engines and thousands of road vehicles, including retro classics.
Minimal carbon output
“We want to create a show with minimal carbon output and show that ICE-powered vehicles can be environmentally friendly right now,” said show CEO Andy Entwistle.
“It’s especially important for those who cherish their classic cars or cannot yet afford a new EV.”
British Motor Show organisers will also offset the carbon output of every show visitor, further underlining its green credentials.
Electric cars are to feature heavily throughout the show, including a range of electrified classics.
More than 70,000 visitors are expected at the four-day show, with ticket prices starting from £18.50 or £37 for a family of four.
Prices have been held from last year, added Mr Entwistle, making the 2022 British Motor Show an inflation-busting one, as well as an eco-friendly event.
