QUOTE The battery pack consists of 96 160Ah Axeon lithium-ion iron-phosphate cells, each weighing 5.6 kg (12.3 pounds). Total weight of the pack is 550 kg (1,213 lbs). Well I could live with the 150 mile range. However the lithium ion batteries... can you say mega freakin bucks! I want an electric car badly. However, not enough to drop 25K on a battery pack that I have to replace in ~8 years. I was really bummed when I heard Tesla was laying off employees. I have been silently hoping that they would get the msrp on their tesla roadster down to the original estimate of 50K. While still overwhelming you could pretty much justify it if you can throw away 400 in cost of gas a month. |
