Having lived with a 100% electric now for a year (a Think City), I can say that I am a convert. 16K miles (my wife commutes a lot) about 50 miles a day equates to about $8/week in electrical costs. (Wind, hydro & gas up here)
Not saying there aren't compromises, but as a commuter that handles 95% of our transportation needs - it works for us. If I had to replace the Li-ion battery today, it wouldn't be cheap, but in ten years, and 160,000 miles figured into it - still far better than $3.50/gal gas. with that said, my 43 year old (gas) 914 has a better environmental impact ratio than a new Prius. |
