you over-unity guys need to get real!

I figured if 200-250 miles per charge 100,000 mile battery life = 500-400 cycles nothing new or ground breaking for the battery life.

80-100k ???

holy shnikees
you know how much f'in gas that is...???
hmm

my car is say $3000
a difference of about $87k
thats 29,000 gallons at $3.00/gal
even at 30mpg thats 870,000 miles !!!!!!!
PAAAAALEEEEEEZEEE!!!

f'in idiot[/quoteoy]You tell em!

it doesn't burn gas
which is worth something
but not my entire careers worth of driving mileage up front
what sense do all these efficient cars make relatively...
$$$$

ahhhh there in lies the problem as Toecutter was saying make a high performance vehicle . . . they did and thus the cost goes up . . . you think engineers and CEO's work for three years for nothing? When was the last time you built a high performance vehicle? Carbon fiber body - Lithium battery probably their cost $23,000 plus battery management and assembly. $1,000 for electric energy to go 100,000 miles no maintenance cost.

80-100k. HAHAHAHAHA No thanks.

If you want a $10k electric car, there's always the Zap Zebra in the US, or the REVA in England.

Looks like I'm in the wrong business

I'd reserve judgment on that feeling for a couple of years ;)

Just wait until alot of people start pluging in and the grid go's down.
