Range anxiety is becoming a thing of the past as electric vehicle technology advances

We all know you hate science, gays, and technological advancement. Why comment?

All for the benefit of Joey wet panties.

Hardly the beginnings of EV's. The first ones came out in the 1830's, and by the 1890's were viable motor vehicles. None however captured much of a market.

I believe you know that is a bad argument. The 1830 electric cars were passed on because gas was so available. https://archive.curbed.com/2017/9/22/16346892/electric-car-history-fritchle

The first jet engine was created nearly 2,000 years ago by Hero of Alexandria, and did not really catch on until the 1950's.

Lithium ion batteries were mostly developed in the 1980's, and were not used in cars until the 2000's. Solid state batteries are only now seeing their first tests.

I don't know what that means. You keep doing you. How's the BBQ at the Klan rallies?

The energy secretaries disastrous pr attempt indicates otherwise....that got enormous attention.

Yes, range anxiety is becoming a thing of the past as electric vehicle technology advances.

Even the cheapest EVs can now travel more than 200 miles to a charge, while pioneering luxury models featuring the latest in battery technology have proven capable of as much as 500 miles of range or more. Longer-range EVs are making road trips more practical than ever, further closing the gap between them and the internal-combustion-powered cars and trucks they're increasingly replacing.
Several EVs achieve their increased ranges through a combination of more energy-dense battery chemistries and increasingly efficient designs. Others simply pack ever more battery into each vehicle in order to achieve greater distance. Regardless of how they get there, every EV on the following list of electric cars and trucks with the longest range can travel at least 270 miles to a charge, according to the EPA.

Again there is no significant advantages to owning a EV over ICE

You can get electricity from anywhere, but gasoline only comes from crude oil.

Eisenhower made a disastrous attempt to drive across America in 1919... Should we have banned gasoline cars because of that?

That's like saying computers were invented in the early 1800's.

It's true - but it has nothing to do w/ the development of the modern computer.

Ergo, intellectually dishonest.

Wrong. The differences between battery vehicles then and comparable ICE vehicles when they became available was negligible. Yet, ICE vehicles won out every time. That is as true in 1910 as it was in 1950 as it was in 1990.

Bullshit. A jet engine consists of a compressor driven by a turbine. Hero's engine has nothing like that. Battery technology has only improved incrementally since the 1940's.

Or at best? Sounds like at best.

The Electrified G80 can travel up to 282 miles That would be under the best conditions the very best it does.

Volkswagen ID.4

209 miles in the case of the 62-kWh battery and RWD powertrain, 275 miles in the 82-kWh RWD version, and 255 miles in the 82-kWh AWD version.

Again that is the very very best it can do. And we all know it is hard to get the maximum mileage out of any car.

We’ve got two years before we trade in our current automobile. I’m sure by then EV’s will be even better! Can’t wait.

As long as you only drive around town they're fine.

A Tesla 3 long range can realistically go about 280 miles on a charge. They claim 352 miles, but real life testing comes in much lower. A half-hour recharge can get you another 100 miles. That is assuming you can find a quick charge station. Standard charging will have you stranded for 6 to 8 hours.

Nothing wrong about it. It's a dishonest portrayal. Just like it would have been in the '70's if someone said "we've been working on computers for 150 years, and still can't make them for personal use!"

You're going to be WAY wrong as the times progress, and developments continue. I think you know that.

Hardly the same thing. You are making a false analogy.

Battery technology is for all intents, the same as it was 100 years ago. Sure the exact configuration of the plates, cells, and the materials have changed some but the concept hasn't. You have an anode, cathode, and electrolyte. That hasn't changed one iota.

Computers however have gone from mechanical to electo-mechanical, to analog using electro-mechanical, to digital using electro-mechanical, to electronic digital, and are poised to go to electronic using quantum state computing.

Those are massive changes in both the technology and the way the computer operates. You simply are so technologically ignorant you can't see these differences.

Hero's engine was a steam engine.

Nonsense. You don't even know what ad hominem is if you think that.

 

[T. A. Gardner]

Hero's engine was a steam engine.

It was also the simplest sort of steam engine, a one-pass, open-cycle.

I'm more interested in flow battery. If we are driving battery cars in the future flow batteries may be powering them IMHO.

A variant of the fuel cell. Fuel cells would work for an alternative to ICE, but the Left as usual has fixated on the marginal in battery technology.
