Have a star.

Actually, it’s a bit like driving a manual : sounds complicated when you try to explain it with words, easy to to once you learned it. Especially as it’s the car computer that does it for you.

Does your equivalent fossil-powered car offer the convenience to refuel at home? Probably not.

Yes, that’s the kind of comfort many people don’t realize (because they didn’t try).

You wouldn’t be that annoyed if you could refill at home, would you?

Neither do you need a rental car when you got an EV. Stopping every 2hrs=150miles makes a more relaxing rhythm and can still bring you to the other side of the continent.

Stopping every 150 miles = 2hrs highway drive is only sensible, actually.

With 80mph as the highest speed limit in the continent, your answer is probably the best.

J’en veux un comme ça!

Since that threshold is not that clear-cut, I don’t think cumulative exposure is a big problem in the scenario you mentioned.

MMO is between 0.8 and 0.9 for most passenger jets ; going to 1.1 or 1.25 is a modest improvement and won’t divide the flight time by half as with a good ol’ crashin’ Concorde.

In the “land yacht” family, but better looking and better driving, a big english sedan : Jaguar Mark2 or XJ, or even a Rolls Silver Shadow why not?

More radiation exposure is worse than less radiation exposure.

At 6.6kW I doubt the charging speed will vary ; and to function properly on track, I hope there is a massive cooling system (better if it’s the full Tesla system and not only the water pumps).

Yes, basically this article seems quite conservative.

The 19t/26t assessment at the beginning of the article seems a bit biased, because it assumes a 500gCO2/kWh electricity (Midwest value, worse than most EU countries and 10 times more than here in France) and a relative short lifetime (100k miles), and a very optimistic assessment of the ICE’s emissions (better count…

I can go to the Turini and back in less than 24h by nice winding roads, so that wouldn’t make sense for me to teleport there... Hesitating between the north coast of Majorca and the road N°1 in Iceland.

Hey, that’s no reason to park on the wrong place!

You just know how long it needs to charge : 16kWh battery / 6.6kw charger = about 3 hours.

Came here to say that.
