Separate names with a comma.
Not for me. First of all, I won't stop for half an hour unless I'm eating. 8-10 minutes with an absolute maximum of 15 minutes. Second, I...
PHEVs will work 100% of the places where conventional cars will work, since they are conventional cars with just the added capability of charging...
PHEVs will work for 100% of the market. BEVs as they exist today will work for <5% of the market.
I need 330 miles in 10°F weather and 450 miles in mild weather, plus greatly expanded fast-charging infrastructure, all at a cost around $30k.
And EVs started in the 1800s. We can ignore prototypes and proof-of-concept demonstrators and focus just on wide-spread availability to consumers.
Steps needed to improve EV adoption: Eliminate the range problem. This means better batteries, probably including some combination of...
I think you two just aren't paying attention. EVs are 2% of the market or so. So, the "1% [who] are turned off" looks more like 98% to me....
This is one of many reasons I'm not a user. This type of thing turns off consumers, and isn't that the sort of thing this thread is about, exactly?
Apparently, Tesla Model 3's delivered to Europe come with the CCS connector built-in instead of the Tesla connector. Tesla confirms Model 3 is...
No, it's a problem. If *any* adapters exist, it means there are multiple standards, and that means difficulty for consumers. USB-A, USB-mini,...
It took until this morning to remember what I had been thinking of. CHAdeMO Adapter Tesla's CCS adapter enables Model S and X to charge up...
Wikipedia says this about minivans: "The minivan combines a high-roof, five-door one- or two-box hatchback body configuration with a mid-size...
Either way, it's still stupid to need an adapter. The one thing I think Tesla got right was the charging system. Same connector for AC and DC,...
Okay, well, I definitely remember reading posts by Tesla owners along the lines of, "I'm going to have to bite the bullet and buy the adapter"....
Then why do they sell them in the parts shop and why have I seen people mention that they had to go buy them? Is this a new policy and they...
Different ground clearance, common availability of four-wheel-drive.
I have a minivan - Mazda5. But, dang, "minivans" like the Pacifica and Sienna have gotten enormous compared to how they were when they came out!
Van. I refuse to call anything that's practically big enough to hold my 2004 Prius inside "mini".
No, there are two - Tesla and J1772. Tesla owners need to buy a ($127) adapter to use J1772 chargers.
Which is a huge problem. Tesla, ICS, CHAdeMO and J1772. It's maddening, frankly. It's like VHS/Beta, Bluray/HDDVD etc, but with four players...
