Where would you plug in your vehicle?

Mail this post This is an all-electric car with a range of 40 miles-per-charge, and for longer trips, a small internal combustion engine recharges the batteries as you drive.
Mail this post Can you provide a link to an article or website describing developments we will see in the electric car in the future? What new models are coming out? What improvements are being made? Please provide a reference. Thanks so much.
Mail this post And does Chevy have any plans of actually putting a full electric car on the market any time soon?
Mail this post I’m doing a school report and I’m comparing electric cars to gasoline powered cars to see if car dealers should sell electric cars.
Mail this post I’ve been waiting and waiting, but it never seems to come. When, if ever, will I be able to buy a Chevy Volt?
Mail this post hey everybody do u think its a good idea to have electric car?and how much do they cost? are they over twenty grand?do you still have to put gas in thoes cars?
Mail this post Ok so with all of the inefficiencies of the reciprocating internal combustion engine why don’t they make a hybrid car powered by a small centrifugal turbine that would work like an aircraft APU. The car would have an all electric drive system and the turbine would produce electricity for the electric motor. The FADEC computer would control fuel flow to the turbine as more power was needed. Trains have been doing this for decades so why not cars? A plus would be that you could use any liquid or flammable gas for fuel.
Ok you missed the piont it is an electric car not driven directly by the turbine but buy the electricity produced by a generator connected to the turbine
A single stage centrifugal flow turbine could be machined from a single piece of metal using computerized tools so it would be less complicated to manufacture than an internal combustion engine
I would not consider using and actual aircraft APU I was thinking of something about the size of a turbocharger or maybe a little larger but similar in function to an APU
Get the car moving using battery power then use ram air to help spin up the turbine
Mail this post At Tesla we believe that the future of the automobile is electric. The revolutionary Roadster is a first great step in that direction. We took an uncompromised approach to designing and building the Roadster to show that an electric car could surpass gas-powered cars in design, performance, durability, and plain driving fun. Many Roadster owners [...]
