  5. Washington State Plans to Ban Sales of Gasoline Cars after 2030

    Exactly In 1999/2000 battery tech with NiMH batteries was good enough for many practical EV cars. The drivers/leasees that had EV1 loved them and were willing to buy them at end of lease. GM killed production and destroyed all the cars after they bought enough politicians to kill the mandate...

  11. What Do GM's Plans for an All-electric Future Mean to Pickup Truck Users?

    A 6-wheel or dually 8ft-bed rear-steering Cybertruck could out compete a Ford F-450/550 or RAM 4500. For simplicity, repair-ability, parts reuse, use same design in all three locations (front, rear-1, rear-2). Take the normal front steering independent suspension & motor from the front of the...

    Agree. With Tesla drive-train power is not a limiting factor. Mostly Cybertruck would need a higher capacity rear suspension. The rear suspension from double axle rear steering fire trucks is an example that Tesla might want to look at 4 rear wheels for payload & towing capacity. rear...

  16. Car groups throw spanner in works of EU’s hydrogen drive

    What??? Maybe 20 years ago that statement might seem true. But today it is happening NOW in U.S., Europe & Asia. And magically somehow there will be more political or economic power to do a much more difficult problem of network of hydrogen stations??
  17. Car groups throw spanner in works of EU’s hydrogen drive

    Sure at small scale it is easy. As you know who says * prototypes are easy Making a few bubbles of hydrogen in a test tube is easy. * production is hard The capital investment & the amount of energy for the hydrogen stations needed to power even tens of thousands of hydrogen cars is hard...
