I find it funny that people complain about battery drain.
Most peope use their car to go to work and back during the week,probably doing the max of about 200kms a day if that.
Come home,have tea get out a stubby or a glass of wine and in for the evening.
Stick the car on charge over night and you're right for tomorrow which you will do it all over again.
I have some friends in America who have an electric car and they have just done a trip around 5 or 6 states and have had not one ounce of bother charging their vehicle.
They got around 450kms per charge
It's a big Furfy spread by the fosill fuel mob that there is no range in electric cars.
BTW Queesland has recharging stations all the way up the coast to Cairns and beyond
As battery technology and other fuel sources come on line in the next few years,you won't even hear a whimper about battery or energy source life.
If I could afford an electric car I would jump at the chance.
What I want to see come on line is an Electric Harley Davidson motorbike,then we wouldn't have to put up wth that abhorrent noise that they seem to get away wth comapared to other vehicles.
Is this Cop envy that the cops don't police Harley Davidson's for noise pollution.?
Cheers
