I visit this place almost everyday and often asked myself the same. Why not make this forum flexible beyond just Tesla? With so much electric vehicle happenings you'd be limiting future growth in a big way. While I respect Tesla, I agree it is time we move beyond Tesla only. I have been hitting...

Very well put Brent. I agree.

That is really cool. Wow. I wonder where this is being deployed and also the project cost. Insurance companies will also favor this method of parking no doubt. It seems rather achievable. I wonder if they will rely on programmable logic control. Some logic is heavy. But I'm guessing it shouldn't...

Awesome it's Martins birthday. Happy birthday Mr. Eberhard! How many candles?

Yeah I know Doug. I to was thrown by surprise when they busted out the radiator cap. I was like huh? LoL. Yes Doug, some specifications are a tad outdated. I noticed that myself. Tesla's new power electronics upgrade supposedly puts out 850 amperes at 223 Kilowatts of motor power or roughly 300...

More on Lithium......

I went to see Ironman last Friday. All I got to say is that's a really good film. Did anyone else see it opening day? Robert D. Jr. plays the part well. The storyline is superb. They made the Tesla Roadster look awesome because of the lighting. The roadster looked sooooo mean. I was like...

I must admit I like the Triac. The Aptera has nothing on this. I'd really consider buying this vehicle. Really sweet. Thanks for posting. How come there is no purchasing information on the company website? Kool car. I would also like to know the energy density of the pack they are using. That...

haha too funny

Gosh man that thing is so freaky. Scares the *sugar* out of me. LMAO. Damn wtf.

Great article Tony. I think this is where we should be going. All those semi's that congest our highways will be headed toward the nearest off ramp. At this point any reduction is a good one. Semi's also account for a large proportion of emissions on highways. Just look at the black smoke pour...

I suspect that hub motors would offer the quietest ride. I think EV noise has alot to do with gears and less to do with the electric motor itself. Bye the way, I'm curious TEG, what kind of EV do you have/drive? And how were you able to hitch a ride in the Tesla Roadster? How would one obtain a...

I think that would be terrific. Great suggestion! Please consider this. :smile:

Damn! Haha welcome to Ev paradise everyone. Thank you for posting this great piece.

You know what, Toyota has the best EV tech. right now. I would have never anticipated them slowing their pace down. They keep insisting on the plug-in parallel hybrid and even no plug originally. Maybe they are just playing this out in an attempt to confuse GM? Hmm. I mean they must see GM's EV...

Thank you David. Bye the way what is next for "you"? I could clearly see your passion for Ev's the entire time at Tesla. :cool:

What color is that, its a little hard to tell? Electric blue? Anyway, they need to get this thing out of the gate soon.

Geez, I'm sorry guys I didn't even realize this was already posted. LoL was just trying to contribute, you's are ahead of the curve I see. :eek:

Lockheed Martin Signs Agreement with EEStor Mostly, we talk about the Volt here, but relevant and related topics are often worth discussing. We have previously discussed a secretive Texas company called EEStor, who are reported to be working on a new type of ultracapacitor that can hold 10x...

Haha!!! He must be offering you guys a good deal, otherwise why take him back.

I was honestly thinking the same thing. HAHA.

haha nice one

LOL geez this guy must be a real idiot. I can't believe all the sources you people were able to link him to. Good work! I'm "somewhat" new to this forum, but I'm very impressed with the wealth of information here. Nothing compares. Bye the way Kent, you suck @ life. :tongue:

The Chevy Volt is a good concept and in my opinion superior to something like the Toyota Prius. Pure BEV’s have advantages that shouldn’t be ignored either. One advantage is the life of the battery. The lower energy density cells in the Chevy Volt mean the battery must be recharged more often...

Haha! Carolyn Motors? :wink:

David I have followed your work at Tesla since the beginning. It is so sad to see you go. I wish the best for you and your family. Tesla is losing touch with me. I will be watching closely. I smell bad news ahead but we shall see. I'm trying so hard to keep positive. It's difficult.
