With regard to batteries, I would think most current and future EV owners would list requirements in this order:
-Range
-Charge time
-Life
"It's wierd, once you own an EV amd get over range anxiety" ...
... if I can't make a trip from the middle of Illinois to Chicago in an EV then I'm going to have a problem. Currently the Tesla Roadster would leave me stranded in Joliet.
Then the car is not right for that application.
If EVs are going to become mainstream, there must be some type of solution that addresses range anxiety.
Indeed, and too many people seem to feel they have to travel to entertain themselves. If you can't find enough interesting things within 100 miles you're either not trying hard enough or you live in the wrong place. Too much of our "culture" is based on cheap transport fuel and many people don't want to face the idea that those days may be over.Perhaps this whole range thing is more acute in the US than it is in Europe. There just too much of nothingness between US cities!
