what can we do to bring back the EV1 (electric car)?

Question

what a waste

Answer 1

The EV1 may be gone, but it lives on in the next generation of electric cars. Here's the latest in electric cars:

The Phoenix electric pickup truck can:

-Travel up to 250 miles per charge
-Carry 5 passengers plus cargo at 95mph.
-Charges batteries in as little as TEN MINUTES.
-Has batteries that last 250,000 miles (never need replacement.)

Yes this is a real car. They are being built for fleet customers right now.

It doesn't matter what powerplants burn. EVs still make much less pollution. DId you know that your gas car uses electricity? It's true. Massive amounts of electricity are used to refine gasoline. Then more energy is wasted trucking gasoline to thousands of service stations (electric cars charge by wire at 95% efficiency.)

So gas makes pollution when it's refined, it makes pollution when it's delivered, and it makes pollution when you use it. It's not hard for an EV to beat this. EVs are also far more efficient when they utilize fuel. That's why it's so much cheaper (1 to 2 cents per mile) to drive on electricity compared to gasoline.

Answer 2

Electric cars will be pointless until the big electric power plants that recharge them run on something besides fossil fuel.

Answer 3

stop the law suits filed by people being in accident's in them tax then by the mile so the state does not lose 67 cents per gallon of tax money, find Jobs for all the truckers refinery workers get the Green people off their backs, then maybe they might think about it but they would want $60,000 each. and do the same thing to bring back nuke plants to clean up the enviroment.

Answer 4

Start your own environmently inefficient factory. More global warming = faster comeback of electric car.

Answer 5

Dear Sir,
Green cars are practical solutions to green house gas reductions in the future .
But we need to overcome long lasting problems of electrical cars either by technology or by proper planning .
I am a 42 years old energitic chemical engineer, oil and gas and energy specialist , and I am really worried about tremendous devestation of our environment by CO2 accumulation.
In fact we are making money by oil exploration, oil refining , and enjoy driving petrol cars .
we try to raise our children with higher income of oil engineers but we are producing CO2 to destroy the earth in future by global warming and by tornados of climate changes.
I believe the key to solve the milage problem of electric cars and HP requirements of them is proper type of heavy duty batteries with quick recharge time with liquid change.
By this method 300 miles and 3 to 4 minute charging time can be achieved in the fuel stations .....
I am looking for supporting institute you know to provide fund to complete my research to make these batteries.
Also "multiple electric car leasing" or MECL is a way to use large no, of electric cars in large cities , for taxi service .
I am looking for supporting institutes in one large city to provide fund to complete my research to realize this .
Science and technology will solve the existing problems of EV cars, so do not worry and just wait!!

Answer 6

Pray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
write your senator
buy a used one
wait one yr till GM comes out with the new electric car

Answer 7

you should look at some of the articles in the website... "thetruthaboutcars.com
there, they will tell you how much money that the General lost with that car..... but will shed some light on the future, the Chevrolet Volt.

Answer 8

Nothing I hope! What will you do with all the junk batteries when they crap out? Build homeless shelters made of batteries?
