What about weight of EVs? And electric generation?
The bridge over the Mississippi River in Arkansas broke because it was made for 1976 amounts of traffic. Add weight of an electric fleet and you’ll need a new bridge.
And that’s just one of thousands.
Hybrids don’t have as much battery and you don’t have to worry about increasing the electrical grid.
And hybrids are good for sport cars like the Acura NSX and the Corvette Zora.
My S60 T5 Volvo AWD is heavier than the new Model 3 Tesla that is part of the stable now. They are within one inch of each other in footprint that’s length and width. The S60 is nearly 100lbs heavier the AWD drivetrain is heavy all those gears, difs, shafts ect.
It’s 1.58 cents per mile to drive my Tesla and 14.8 for the S60 you can see why the Tesla got added to the stable. I can also charge it over night at 5 cents or less per kWh or during the day for free off my solar panels. I would rather sell power at peak rates and buy back power in the middle of the night for one fifth the cost.
You lease a Tesla and turn it in after five years well inside it’s 8 year warranty. Mine is earning it’s keep today it’s out over the weekend on a peer to peer rental app for 4 days they can bring it back at 10% if they chose too. I included the CCS to NACS adapter so every plug in the DFW area be it CCS,J1772 or Tesla plug is open to them the car has all tech on including FSD so it will guide you to a charger if you get below 20% only a complete idiot cannot follow the on screen Nav to a open charger. Last night I was in Addison with it there was 30 fast DC spots within 2 miles of where I was sitting. No bad I charged it to 100% before the Turn driver came for it today. This weekend pays for the next three weeks lease costs so basically a free car for me over the next three weeks.
The rewiring of the infrastructure seems impossible.
Not enough copper on the planet.
