Let me get this straight. The Gov wants people to drive this thing so much that they will pay for the fuel (electricity) which is generated how? Burning carbon fuels at the power plant down the street or nuclear power?

The new G-Wiz AC currently uses eight 6V lead acid batteries connected in series (200 Amp-hr) but is upgradeable to high-performance lithium-ion batteries when they become available next year. Use of the li-ion batteries should increase the car’s speed to between 50-60 mph and support a range of between 60 and 70 miles. The date for introduction has not yet been finalized, nor has the cost or actual performance figures. So where do the lead acid batteries go once they have to be replaced? Even if they're recycled, smelting lead isn't exactly the most environmentally benign activity.

I suppose the rationale is that there are fewer emissions for electrictiy generation on a mass scale than there are for gas-burning individual cars. But otherwise, this is a good observation.

I hadn't heard that rationale about mass production of electricity producing less emissions. I wonder if it's true.

That's what happens to your non-Sanforized Lincoln Navigator if you wash it.

Do you carry that thing in your pocket when you're not struggling to keep up with pooch running alongside the motorway.
