I live in the uk, where there is a lot of talk about introducing new electric cars in place of petrol/diesel fueled cars.
I recently read about an electric Range rover and was wondering, do these electric cars offer less performance than petrol/diesel models?
Answer
there have been electric cars that could happily drive at 100mph if you so wished.
Performance has not been the problem, for getting an electric car into production in the past
The main problem was the Oil companies bought up the patents.... It was not in the interests of the Oil Companies to mass produce a car with no need of oil.
But times are changing. We will soon see cars on our roads, with no emissions, some form of car that self charges as you drive.
The technology already exists, dynamos on the axles, solar panels, storage cells are getting more and more efficient.
new super bright LEDs on all the lights will reduce battery drain. The car will be lighter, new alloys and carbon plastics can be as strong as steel.
Imagine an all electric car with lower running cost, lower insurance and tax, perhaps even lower parking costs.
So if you want to see the cars sooner, make the politicians work , All new cars could be electric in less than 10 years, less than 5 if we push the governments and companies to do it.
So whats next????
Electric powered Aircraft? and pollution free skies
Lets make it happen

who invented electric cars?
Q. What country invented electric cars and which country uses them the most?
Answer
Electric taxicabs were the first electric cars, built by the Electric Carriage and Wagon Company of Philadelphia starting in 1896, and used on the streets of New York to deal with the "horse pollution" of the day.
*
The country with the most electric vehicles presently is probably the United States. There are several thousand hobbyist electric cars on the road in the US, joined in 2011 by several thousand Nissan Leafs and Chevy Volts.
*
However, the lead in electric vehicles may not last long. China plans to invest over $15 billion in electric car infrastructure, and sales of the Leaf and Volt will target Europe in 2012, which is likely to be a prime market for electric vehicles - as gasoline is much more expensive in most countries outside of the US. Other electric vehicles in development at various car manufacturers have Europe and Asia as primary marketing targets.
