Sorry for the double post. Been busy the past month, and I've had the pleasure of driving a few... uh... weird cars.



One was this motorcycle, an EV with a 6kW motor... well, technically a 6kw motor, but it has an 18 hp burst mode, which is pretty entertaining... making it quick enough for a potential 80 mph.

Another was this:


A BYD e6, which has the biggest battery pack I've ever seen. 300 kilometers of range on a single charge, which eliminates range anxiety for a big cross section of buyers, though it's still too short for many suburban and rural Americans, I gather... at least as long as compatible quick chargers aren't handy.
