My husband was saying that since new batteries for most of the EV's cost upwards of $12,000 and since all of the EV's use specialized batteries, new batteries might not even be available, the cars are probably going to become disposable cars. So that after 10 years, no one will want them and they will be useless which would create a huge mess as far as what becomes of all that plastic and electronics? Talk about a disaster for the environment!
Sewverybusy, as far as travel, I'm thinking the American road trip will be dead. I heard that they had tested one of the new full size trucks and when towing, it got 85 miles per charge. I can't imagine having to stop every 100 miiles and spend an hour or so recharging your vehicle. And what happens when you get to your remote destination? I'm not sure how many chargers you're going to find in the mountains or a park. As far as the chargers for your home, I think one fast charger comes with the vehicle. I have no idea how it's installed or what the capabilities are needed for it. It very well could be that you'll need to upgrade your electric system or at least install a different box. I think the slow chargers work off of your regular electric but take hours to re-charge.
