Automobile emissions are a significant source of air pollutants, and cars over five years old typically generate significantly greater amounts of pollutants than newer cars  In Torinia, which has recently built its first automobile manufacturing plant, most cars are over five years old
Aiming to boost Torinia' s economy and reduce air pollution, the government plans to introduce incentives for Torinians to scrap their old cars every five years and replace them with new ones
Without the implementation of the planned incentives, most Torinians who own an old car would be unlikely to buy a new car.
