Whether you like 'em or not....they are definitely a wave of the future.
Not sure what I think about the whole idea myself. Still have the rear luggage boot which is nice. It's pretty slick the bolt in rear cradle that holds some of the batteries, Tesla motor, cooling, etc. The "custom" look is pretty bad as to me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJTNsH-SIqk |

EV's won't happen until there's no longer money to be made from gas....rather until there's less money to be made in gas vs. batteries.
Had a chance to buy one of the early Tesla Roadsters off an Estate. Wonderful car, battery range was decent for age of battery/number of cycles. Glad I passed on it, $40k to have the battery rebuilt. What's the stat from 1903? Something like 97% of all vehicles on the road were electric. Hell, even the charging plug was standardized by SAE. Then gas really took off, steam and electric powered motor carriages went away. Convert a 914 to EV? Sure, if it was the option that allowed me to keep driving the car. |
