I've seen lots of comments from people in CA and the large cities but I really don't see how EVs could be a practical solution for many in rural areas or the extreme cold... think Canada (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Quite often in the winter months we can see the cold with windchill reach temperatures of -50 celsius in Northern Ontario. The advancements in battery technology would need to be incredible. Many communities in my area are also separated by at least 200KM... combine that with -50 conditions and constant heat in the cab. Going to be interesting...

Even in the northern US, the 35% (ish) waste energy pushing through the coolant system is used pretty efficiently to heat cars. You need to spend quite a lot of battery energy to do the same. Heat transfer doesn't get better driving on the highway either... |
