...a SolarEdge inverter with an integrated charger. I’m extra excited about the charger/inverter setup, because it can deliver the DC power directly from the solar panels into my car’s battery without converting it to AC first, meaning the usual conversion losses don’t exist.

You can get a 62 kWh battery in the current model. That’s plenty for a little Dodge Rampage-sized pickup. I like it.

I like the way you worded that question. Let’s use the Chevy Bolt as an example.

International standard would be awesome. It’s frustrating that we’re all going different directions. The EU did a good thing for consumers by making Tesla move to the Type 2 connector for the European market. Good graphic to explain where we are (mostly) in the world:

I’m late to the party here, but I think houses are a bit different because you still have higher utilization in the house (assuming it’s a primary residence) even if it is more space than you truly need. A car gets almost no utilization and it is a depreciating asset. Houses don’t depreciate the way cars do (usually).…

The big three are really at the mercy of their shareholders. Tesla gets treated like a silicon valley tech company, not a mass-market automaker. Tesla investors are okay with a huge valuation and promises of far-off future profits that might someday match the share price. Ford’s leadership can’t make crazy moves like…

Hence all the Jeep Wranglers in my neighborhood that might drive over some leaves from time to time.

There’s still more money in the 20th century model of destructive human activity than there is in the reconstructive human activity we need to invest in for the 21st century.

It’s clearly better to write a long comment in response about how the writer of the article wasn’t thinking about your specific situation - a common trope under every article about electric vehicles. “It just doesn’t fit my life perfectly.”

I agree with this. Especially here:

I can’t imagine the insurance company would be too happy with me turning the traction control off in the snow because my car’s system is so horribly inadequate that it does more harm than good.

Isn’t the backing in/head on dependent on where your car’s charge port is located? The Leaf has it on the nose, the chevy bolt and several other cars have it just forward of the driver’s door. Tesla and a few others are at the rear.

Revenue isn’t a measure of how much money a company brings in. It’s actually a measure of how much it spends.

...when demand increases, “you’ll see dealers lining up right away on this,” Glaser said. “The dealers are hoping that the OEMs will move in tandem with consumer demand.”

And probably won’t break your back when you go over a stripe of paint on the road.

I’m glad we have companies like Toyota sticking to their Hydrogen guns, at least from an R&D perspective. I don’t think we should have all of our energy-storage eggs in one basket.

We do expect you to work for prosperity here, however.

It worked for Formula E for several years!
