Has anyone calculated what the cost/mile (based on 40 miles) is, given the electricity cost of charging for 8 hours on a 220v circuit?
What aggravates me is the hypocrisy that an electric car is so much more green! Why? Because the car does not produce CO2 when it runs? What about the extra CO2 at the coal-fired power plants that generate the extra needed electricity? Aren’t we just moving the point of CO2 generation to a point earlier in the flow of energy production/use? Seems like a wash to me once you consider all factors.
And this particular design will still require fossil fuel if you need to go further than 40 miles. Seems like a horrible idea. (One that happens when big-government bureaucrats micro-manage what should be private-enterprise automotive design).
Look at you getting all logical and fact based !
You think Hussein and his crowd cares ? At all ?
