While battery production for electric cars does produce some emissions , these emissions are dwarfed by the emissions produced by gasoline-powered vehicles. Electricity is also more efficient than gasoline, so you’ll get more kilometers out of each battery charge. Charging can be a challenge. Lower emissions.

million vehicles, and we’re seeing about half of people use it so far. For a while there, we were training-constrained in our progress, and we are, at this point, no longer training-constrained, and so we’re making rapid progress. We’re making sure that we’re being efficient as possible in our training.

And in a true smart grid, electric cars will not only be able to draw on electricity to run their motors, they will also be able to do the reverse: send electricity stored in their batteries back into the grid when it is needed. We will own the battery. We will always own the batteries,&# said Mr. Thesen.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. Ive found it facinating how car commercials changed the main MPG number they promoted before gas went over $4 a gallon as city miles. Thats right.
