Instead of just bashing the concept, let's encourage some true innovation to make it work. Is there a way to mass produce so many batteries and the tech to go with it? Has anyone even looked into the way out there topic of using what we have for longer? We seem to now as a species want to/ need to replace everything every couple of years! If we just used and maintained what we had for longer it would be a massive relief on our resources. Not going to happen though as the human species is now conditioned to want, want, want and replace at the drop of a hat!! Rant over, continue to make millions of cars worldwide...

Pokiou Posted 21September, 2018 Report Share Posted 21September, 2018 Not with batteries. The simple truth is they are not efficient devices, as they need energy to produce energy. What needs to happen is make what uses batteries much more efficient, that would reflect to longer lasting batteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the guy who invented a car that ran on water, killed in a car "accident" just after refusing to sell his idea to an oil company. What a cynical bunch we are ?
