Maybe this will shut up the crowd thats been boo-hooing the electric car.

This makes really some good news, everyone has had the mindset that batteries will always be big, bulky and expensive, not so! Battery technology is advancing faster than computer CPU speed was in the mid 90’s.

The Tesla Roadster concept is pretty well supported here. I like full size sedans (Electra, Olds 98, Imperial, Town Car), which will probably be the last recipients of electric technology, but if this technology can increase the range of the Tesla five fold, then itis completely viable ON ITS OWN TERMS, that is irrespective of whether it cuts pollution or reduces oil dependency. That is the key to success.

I do wonder how long it would take to recharge the nano-li-ion Tesla with a range of 800 miles.
