Here's what bugs me the most Lauri. In order for electric vehicles to be as competitive as a I.C. vehicle it needs to have good range and fast charging capabilities. The chargers are available, so are the batteries, plus other technologies for longer electric only range and a grid can be implemented. Now, if the Government are so concerning, why don't they start putting some chargers at gas stations? They are more interested in spending money with the companies making the vehicles and not looking into setting up a nice infrastructure to support them first. Tesla got a nice $520+ million loan from the Government which means we the people paying taxes in the US loaned that money. With that amount of money, Tesla can easily start using better cells, because there current one is not capable of fast charging at all.
