That car, Leohold noted, had a lead-acid battery pack with about 24 kWh of energy, was propelled by wheel hub motors and had a range of about 50 km—“ not that much different than today. It will not be enough to improve the efficiency of conventional engines or to launch alternative fuel concepts, Leohold said.

What I do need is an affordable alternative to Lead Acid. A really significant efficiency increase will be realized, and in combination with the new “variable&# alternators from Vancouver, Canada, major wind power efficiencies can be anticipated! About 15 amps from a 110v outlet is adequate. About Gas 2.0

at least, the recycling infrastructure for the well-established lead-acid batteries is robust. lead-acid batteries have a far better recycling rate than even aluminum bottles — over 90% of lead-acid batteries are recycled. None of the new electric cars are planning to use old-tech lead acid batteries.
