The car manufacturers estimate the average electric car will be charged twice a week, so about 1000 charge/discharge cycles in 10 years.Given the real world numbers posted and given the actual commute distances in the USA, I find the estimate to be well off the mark. Even assuming perfect conditions, daylight, no stops, car only used between home and work, parked on the weekends, I'd expect three times a week. Once you factor in weather, traffic jams, hills, the daily lunch run, the grocery runs, weekend shopping, the Sunday church run ... I'd expect it gets plugged in every day. 1000 charges comes before three years or 36 months. OBW the 1000 number is the same number quoted when I got my very first iPod, a couple decades ago. I don't think battery tech is evolving in that direction. |

My very quick search for U.S. commute distance or time indicates 16 miles each way, first item on list, and about 30 minutes each way form the census bureau . Which would indicate to me that commuting would on average, account for one charge/week. Assuming about 2/3's the average manufacturers claimed distance for a medium sized sedan. The other third lost in using lights, wipers and heater or AC, etc |

How Many Times do GAS Powered Cars get Fueled per week? I Don't Believe Every One is Same. Some Fill Up when at 3/4 Full. Some at 1/4 Full. Others a Scooch Over Empty. Many At Empty. From Empty to Full the 'Fill Up'. Depends on ONEs Paranoia and Available Funds or Both. Add to dat - a Charging Station NOT on Every Corner as is a GAS Station. How 'bout when POWER Goes out at Your House and CHARGING HALTs till Power Goes Back On. I've had Storms Cut Electricity fo Many Days. Once fo 9 Days. Area BlackOuts around Country have Sometimes Lasted Weeks. Whoops my Portable Generator is OUT of GAS and Besides I Don't have a Generator to Car Charging Appliance/Cord. OOOOPs. Many Gas Stations are Open when Power Goes Out. I Like to Run Out of Gas and Walk Many Miles Home for Help. heeeheeeheee How is this 'FILLING UP' going to be in EV World? I Say da PARANOIA will be Greater. And Available 'Filling Up' Opportunities MUCH LESS. Not to Worry RATFACE and Co. Will Have it ALL FIGURED OUT. YEp May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!! |

Fantasy, modern gas pumps need electricity to work, modern cash registers need electricity to work as do crdit card machines so payment can't be made. You are just spouting BS as usual. |

There are Cars 50+ Years Old Using Same Gas Tank it Rolled off Assembly Line With. After 50+ Years - How Many Times will Original Battery Packs be REPLACED in an Electric Vehicle? A Gas Tank can be Crushed; Shredded; Melted and Made into New Bar of Steel - to be made into ........ Wat are 50+ Years of Battery Packs going to End Up As - Except Piles of Dangerous REFUSE?

When it is Time to Replace Batteries in Electric Car, I'm Bettin' da COST of REPLACEMENT would EQUAL or MUCH MORE in $$$$$$$ than Payin' for GAS Years and Years and Years. I Hope I Live Long Enough to Witness ALL da PROBLEMs with Electric Vehicles People are Gunna Confront and Beach About. Electric Vehicles are GREAT - If POWERED by Electricity Not Provided by Batteries. Yep ................Yep Yep May we All have a METAMORPHOSIS. REASON. GOoD JUDGEMENT and LOVE and ORDER!!!!! |

Have you seen the way that the price of lead/acid batteries has gone up over the last 6-8yrs? And then there's clutches/torque converters, exhaust systems, cooling systems and many other bits and pieces that need replacing over that time as well, if not needing the engine/gearbox reconditioned a couple of times if use regularly over all that time (and that can be costly in itself). |

In this month's Car and Driver there is a good article about start up Electric car company "Lucid". They are making their first cars available for sale right now. You can get one with decent range and blistering performance for a scant $175,000. Perfect for me if I could just overcome any range anxiety that may crop up each time that I took the wheel or went on a longer trip. By the by....... what does it cost per KWH to recharge these days?--should be a lot cheaper than the now average $60-$80 fill up. |

New electric car has world’s best driving range. A little known electric car maker, Lucid, has smashed Tesla in one very important area. |
