Dominion Over Space and Time
On the Cultural History of the Automobile
2012 was considered to be the year with the highest gasoline prices in the history of the automobile. Nevertheless, the number of fuel-guzzling SUVs (sports utilility vehicles) continued to rise to 16% of new car sales. Models such as the Porsche Cayenne enjoy great international popularity. This car combines the prestige of the Porsche sports car, established over many years, with the brawny form of a sedan, which rises above the normal level of other cars and offers the comfort advantages of a luxury car. At the same time, environmental organisations have been advocating the purchase of new cars with low fuel consumption and pushing for a maximum speed limit in Germany since the 1980s.
