How many cars do we have on the road?

Can we replace that many in that time frame?


It will be replacement by natural attrition. There will be no more fossil fools cars being manufactured and the only thing you can buy will be electric.



And driving from Cairns to Brisbane will go back to taking about a week to complete.


That horse and cart is starting to look pretty good by then.  Smiley Smiley Smiley


Tesla has a large number of charging stations all around the US as well as many other countries. They plan to expand their network and install more of them. Of course Australia is always behind the pack and only has a handful of them. Early adopters of technology according to Costello Cheesy LOL



And like you said earlier, you will be expected to sit for 30 minutes to get enough charge to travel 40 kms.

So once the initial charge is gone, you will be sitting around like a fool waiting along with hundreds if not thousands of travelers, for the battery to charge to get you to the next town maybe 50 kms away. Too bad if you want to travel where towns are few and far between.



Like I said the horse and cart won't be far behind the battery EV just for long trips.





If you are getting a top up for nothing then nobody should complain. Find one fossil fool outlet that gives you free top ups Cheesy LOL Someone on the dole like yourself shouldn't complain.  Most people park their cars in shopping centers or at work for hours on end so it's a good opportunity to top-up. Who wants to do an 8 hour trip from Melbourne to Sydney without a single break ? Only you and longprong58 Cheesy LOL

People will change their lifestyles if they are getting a good deal. Polluting and expensive fossil fool technology is not the standard to be judged by. It is from a bygone era and was never sustainable in the long run.




So you agree that with this technological break though the time taken will vastly increase from a couple of days to possible a week or more, but we will get 'free' top ups.


Your time mustn't be worth much, if that makes you happy.


If you believe that batteries are not massively polluting then you are a fool or a liar.




Would you honestly drive for 8 hours without taking a break and being a potential hazard to other drivers ?

Why not take a plane and do the trip in 1 hour ?

The government is already hatching up a plan to tax drivers on their distance traveled so no you can't get out of paying taxes even if you use EV's Sad

Just remember how they conned people out of parity feed-ins for rooftop solar by conning them to install dumb-meters. Now the punters are only getting a measly 6 cents per kWH whilst some scam artists is reselling the energy for 25 cents per kWH. What a con Sad

They will make a fortune out of the money out of the hotels and motels will make putting millions of travellers every year, due to the fact that travel times have more than tripled.

The few measly dollars saved in fuel cost will be more than squandered in accommodation costs because an EV can't get to the end of a fkken driveway without needing a recharge.

They are adding noises to simulate V8's. No big deal.
