Thoughts on Electric Cars
Hello fellows Members,
Just wanted to get the general consensus of what people thought about purchasing a new electric car. Manufacturers such as GM with the Volt, Nissan
with the Leaf and Mitsubishi with the i-MiEV all claim the cars will be sold to the
general public within a year.
I am seriously considering purchasing however a little concerned about how long
batteries will last and how many cycles one could expect and above all else
the cost to replace the batteries may outweigh the savings on gas over the 5-8
years the batteries are supposed to last.
Anybody have any thoughts or heard information or rumours regarding these cars.
Thanks and have a nice weekend.
