I would like to see electric postal vehicles. Seems like an ideal application. Recharve over night. Regenerative braking is ideal for the type of driving they do.

I would like to see electric postal vehicles. Seems like an ideal application. Recharve over night. Regenerative braking is ideal for the type of driving they do. I'd offer up that CA Gov't ought to be the first forced to adopt EV's before they are forced upon the public. Sounds good in theory. In reality that hasn't worked out so well for LAPD and their tax payers. https://www.thedrive.com/news/36119/the-los...-is-up-for-sale To @Tdskip 's previous point. I concur. People largely have their minds made up one way or another. Personally I think it's as much about your "faith" in technology advancement. Is it linear, is is exponential, or was it initially exponential and now that the easy gains have been realized will it plateau? I honestly don't know. I love EV's from a performance stand point. Nothing currently tops Max torque at zero RPM to achive staggering 0-60 times. However, from a range and rechargeability standpoint, EV's still have a long way to go to be comparable to ICE. I will adapt EV's when they make sense to my lifestyle but not a moment sooner. |
