Thank you, "Dear Heart". I'm in good health and spirits, getting in a few kilometers per day on the permitted exercise outings here. Things are calm as we wait out this 'storm'.Hi there4eyeMNot at all. They are more than capable of the speeds attained by the cars with ancient technology under the hood. Plus, electric motors need very little maintenance, don't pollute, last years longer, make much less noise, don't need transmissions and can be left for long periods without deterioration. For these reasons and more, they are opposed by auto makers, oil companies and the legislators who work for them. That also explains those who rant against them, as well as the negative publicity.Wow! I'm really surprised by this thread! I thought electric cars were all slower than petrol cars!
By the way, hope you're well.
I feel ok thanks! Hope you're well too
Take care.
