Prepare for articles such as these, which run counter to the official narrative, to be labelled as disinformation by our government/media overlords.

Social media already auto-generates their commie "informational" tags to articles like this.

While it is a mistake to use an EV for long trips, this is incorrect:

“ There isn’t a good software tool that helps EV owners plan their trips,” he told ABC News.”

My Mustang Mach e has that capability with the screen on the car itself, and my phone has the capability with a ChargePoint app.

They show me if it is in use, broken, high speed, etc.

Does that app tell you how many cars are in line ahead of you?

I believe you are wrong.
My F150 has 445 HP and gets 20 mpg with 5 liters. ICU’s have overcome emission controls, and you can easily get 1,000 hp out of stock car engines with turbo or supercharging and tweaks to the computers.
There is a limit on what you can get out of rechargeable batteries

LOL. While pheasant hunting my friends dog raised his rear leg to pee on the post of an electric fence.
Thought that dog never would stop running!

This is the article:

https://newsroom.aaa.com/2019/02/cold-weather-reduces-electric-vehicle-range/

All such studies that I have seen don’t go below twenty degrees.

I want to see the numbers at ten degrees and zero degrees.

They are hiding those.

Classic leftist “science”—hide the data that makes you look bad.

It’s 1923 all over again with ICE vs Electric. Guess who won the first time?

I’m going to hire a team of illegal aliens from El Salvador to carry me around in a sedan chair. It will get 3 miles to the burrito. The exhaust smell is hell.

Here is an article with a couple charts. Fahrenheit is at the top of the charts.

Nope, just if it’s busy, available or out of service.

There is a sign on I-70, east of Indy, that tells truckers how many parking places are available at the next rest area just east of Greenfield IN.


(but there STILL are truckers that park on the exit ramp to IN9 to sleep)
