Either our society will adapt to smaller/lighter EV's or it will do without fully enclosed personal transportation. Peak Oil is upon us(NOW) and it's not going to get any better in the future with depletion outstripping new discoveries/production. As for extended range, once enough EV's are on the road I expect our society will produce a small low drag trailer with extra cargo space and a small gas/diesel generator & fuel tank. I would not be surprised if we end up renting them out like U-haul trailers.. I expect most long distance big rig trips will be outlawed/severly restricted and/or become too expensive. Instead most container/cargo trips will be replaced by electrified rail transportation with big rigs used only for local deliveries. >>>personal transportation is more than 3 billions miles per year, >> >> Electric bikes are even better..

This is such a good idea that if it'd have been my idea I would have kept my mouth shut about it and touted it around the larger EV companies. Diesel gennies can be pretty efficient run at a constant speed, but bloody annoying to have to listen to. Having it in a trailer (perhaps with an automatic start function) is definitely the right place to have it, and the ability to hire it as and when needed would make good sense to the majority of people who would only need the extra range a few times a year.

It goes towards heating the overhead cables. Power companies don't want you or their politicians to know that. That is be cause of big power wanting to build big plants remotely and install cables everywhere which is more money and work for them. That is why power should be generated more close to where its needed. Like for example solar panels on roof tops and wind generators in your garden. There should be legislation to give you more money for locally generated power from solar panels and windmills feeding back into the grid because it has shorter distance to travel, heats up less cables and thus delivers more of the sent power to somewhere needed than inefficient 80% loss that consumers have to pay to electricity companies so that those companies may live. Its the *ONLY* way they can show a profit at your expense. > > > w. > > > > > >>excerpt >> >> Eco Factor: Zero-emission electric vehicle betters its own world >>record by running 1000km without recharging. >> >>Last month we reported about the Mira EV making a world record by >>traveling 345 miles (555.6km) on a single recharge.
