China is not messing around when it comes to phasing out gas-powered cars. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

The decision could see China, which makes and buys more cars than any other country, send shockwaves across the global auto manufacturing sector.

"Professor Glazebook thinks China can implement the ban much sooner than European markets. "The thing that has been holding it back up until now is the cost of electric cars and the fact that they didn't have enough range," he said.”
