A contingent of emission-free electric vehicles have pulled up silently in Geneva, completing a outing around the world to publicize immature energy.
An Australian three-wheeler, a German scooter and a Swiss Monotracer motorcycle arrived at the UN's European domicile in the Swiss city.
They had taken 188 days to casing 27,000km (16,800 miles), 80 days of that were obviously outlayed driving.
The principal barrier they faced was recharging in remote areas.
"It was really hard in a few places, of course for the group members in Russia and China," mentioned Alexandra James, one of the 12 volunteers who took their spin pushing the splendid immature Australian two-seater, dubbed Trev.
"They were electric wires true in to the power supply in specific situations since it was the usually way to obtain a arguable power source - it was a challenge," she told AFP headlines agency.
Sylvie Motard, of the UN Environment Programme, mentioned the "Zero Race" had shown that cars powered by clean, renewable appetite could be "as efficient as petrol-driven vehicles but without emissions".
