Cars with internal combustion engines at high speeds pollute the atmosphere much more than at low ones. Therefore, a couple of years ago in some European countries (Austria, Holland, etc.), in order to improve the environmental situation around some settlements, IG-L zones (Immissionsschutzgesetz - Luft) were introduced. In these zones, the maximum speed is limited to reduce emissions from motor vehicles during heavy pollution (for example, in Austria from 130 to 100 km /h). 3r361.

But if the car has no exhaust, then it does not need this special restriction. Electric cars in Austria can now not pay attention to this limit and go on the same road faster than cars with internal combustion engines. 3r361.
