2014 Peugeot 5008 gets a bit of a facelift

But the problem has been that the 5008 isn’t exactly the best looking kid on the block.

Electric car range drops by nearly 60% in cold weather

Electric cars like the Nissan LEAF (pictured) can lose 60% of their range when it’s cold We already know that the range of electric cars reduces as the car ages, with Nissan conforming that the LEAF’s range will drop by up to 28 per cent over five years. And now we have confirmation that the ambient temperature can have a big impact on range too, thanks to the AAA, America’s equivalent of the AA. The AAA took three standard EVs on sale in the US - Nissan LEAF, Ford Focus EV and Mitsubishi i-MiEV – and subjected them to test in different ambient temperatures.

Surgeons most likely to make insurance claim

The trend continues with hospital consultants in fourth and clinical psychologists in fifth spot and psychotherapists in sixth.
