When EV's were first talked about I thought they would have exchange batteries like how you can exchange propane tanks. Cars could have 2 or 3 standardized battery platform that could be exchanged for fully charged one at existing gas stations. A fork lift could remove the low slung platform and insert the new one from the side of the vehicle. Therefore a EV could travel anywhere exchanges are available. Station would then put the battery platform on charge ready for the next EV. Unfortunately the auto makers did not standardize.
A Tesla goes about 280miles. How do they heat the car in cold climates ?
Me electric is .05 per kwh so elec might sense for me. Also, I see several malls that have charging stations to top off the charge.

It was an electric mountain bike. They say the NFS is ok with the electric (battery powered) bikes in the back country. Who knows, old fat cripples in the back woods!
