“The new battery,along ...”
Pretty amazing if all of those improvements pan out. I view electric vehicles has having a place among those with other sources of power.
I’ve said before that local delivery vehicles and buses seem like a natural use of battery power as they have fixed routes and come home every night for a recharge.
But that ain’t happening so far and I don’t know why.
Those vehicles I mentioned are usually diesel powered.
I grew up in San Francisco during the 1950s. We had electric buses and trolley cars. When the poles came off the overhead wires, the buses could travel for a while on battery power before hooking up again down the block. In the last ten years, they painted over some electric buses with slogans saying "Zero Emission Vehicle!" and such, as if it was a new thing. BS, these were around since the mid-20th century. We still have a mix of electric buses, electric trolley streetcars, and diesels. It's worked for a century, and can still be done this way for another hundred years.
