Here’s one benefit, the guys with the 1,000 Watt stereos in their cars won’t be thumping for long.
How far can you go in your electric car?
300 miles, or 20 miles with the stereo on.
The USG is now spending about 250million to install charging stations in CA, LA and SD plus some other cities and states where the weather is good to help the electric car program along. Plus handing out tax credits, plus the broke states are giving cash rebates.
I listened to a presentation by one of the Beltway Bandits on the charging station program. Even in CA, in the winter when it is down to 40-50 the batteries loose a large percentage of their power output. It will be interesting to see how many of these Leafs(all electric) you see stalled along the freeways next year.
