Default Fully Electric Car available soon

This appears the first mass produced "modern" electric car. They were mass
produced pre WW1. Battery technology is improving by the month without a
doubt. A small Fiesta sized car designed for optimal usage and efficiency
would be a great success. A car like this would never come from the
traditional car industry. It had to be outsiders who look at it from a
different angle and don't have their heads full yesterdays technology and
ways. They want the status quo and keep selling us antiquated polluting
crap.


Yes I suppose the electric car does it crapping elsewhere.. at the power
station?....


Larger vehicles may have an onboard charger of a Stirling engine if needed.
This could also do the a/c., heating and lighting to extend range for long
tourers. A full EV would do 90% of people in car usage. It may do 100% if
the advances keep on rolling.
