I mow a 1/2 acre with electric. Two 5ah batteries (easily swappable) will do it just fine.  Much more than that and you are probably looking at a riding mower anyways. 

I live in Texas and only drive about 6,000 miles a year. That would be a pretty hefty surcharge. Wonder if this will cover plug in hybrids?

I don’t think they have a choice on the Middle East. Not sure anybody would finish the race if it were 120*

The NFL isn’t playing in March, which would be a lot better than May. 

On Miami, whose bright idea was it to schedule the race in May? It really should have been one of the early or late races. Nobody wants to sit in the hot sun in May in Miami.

That’s a good price for a rough manual coupe. For a molested SMG vert? Helllll naw.

I guess the “shakedown” is what happens when you go to the dealer and attempt to buy one.

The fit EV was a compliance car. They realize they need a real EV and don’t have one to offer. If they’re loyal customers leave, they may not come back so they need something to offer, even if it was developed by another company. I don’t think they are offering this for market research.

This is basically Honda admitting it got caught with its pants down and needed a stopgap car.

But Tesla (an American company) sells the majority of EVs in the country.  They must mean just the big3.

Miata is always the answer. 

A lot of posters have mentioned the N1. One serious issue with the N1 is that it initially tried an analog computer to control the engines. That wasn’t viable.

A look at the BAT results indicates you actually can get a higher mile example for $15k, although nice ones seem to go for more like $25k.

The only eclipses ever worth buying were the DSMs. But almost all of them were killed by the F&F crowd by around 2010.

It’s not just the engine. You are also increasing wear on the clutch and differential.

To me, those mods decrease the value because it indicates a lot more wear and tear on the drivetrain than an unmodified car or similar miles.

I’d say the late 1960s generally. It was the last era where designers had pretty free rein without significant crash or emissions constraints. It was also an era with a lot of new companies and ideas coming onto the scene and of revived post-war European marques after their relatively lean years in the late 40s and…

Of course their market share is declining. They basically owned the EV market because they had almost no serious competition until a few years ago. 

From a standpoint of impact to the car, it’s basically a drag race. Almost all the wear and tear would be on launch. 

This strikes me as the 2010s version of a Fiero with a Ferrari body kit.
