Seriously. You ask any two car companies what the future of the electric car looks like and both will, with a straight face, give you two totally different answers and insist in the most strenuous fashion available that the other company is represented by a series of lying bastards who wouldn’t know the future of the electric car if it crawled up their pant legs and started licking them.
Some insist that there have been no major changes in technology. Others claim that’s so much crockery and there HAVE been major changes, especially in battery technology. Some claim that electric cars will never catch on anyway because they’re too quiet. Too quiet? How does THAT happen? Well, for all my readers who live out in the country you know what the biggest threat to driving at night is–car-deer collisions. Animals will be constantly running out in front of these electric cars because they CAN NOT HEAR THEM COMING.
For every solution, there’s a whole new set of problems. And nowhere is this more clearly illustrated than with the electric car.
