I usually don't drive underwater
I just think it's funny that all the idiots think electric cars are running on good for the earth free magic

You know those awesome Fiskar electric cars?? The ones that retail at about 160K?

Well, they have another super feature! It seems that if they are submerged in salt water they catch fire and EXPLODE!!!

No more dicking around with the insurance company on whether your car is totaled anymore once it takes a dip...

God bless Obama and his green energy campaign.

You know what's awesome about gas fueled cars? The ones the retail anywhere from 17,000 to 500,000k?

Well they have another super feature. They can catch on fire and explode if you're pumping gas and the car is still running.

God Bless Big Oil and fossil fuel energy!

When was the last time you heard of that happening? And that is operator error... Electric cars catch on fire and explode all on their own...

Where do you think the power comes from to move these cars nitwit?

I asked the last time you heard of it happening.

How many cars in America? How many car fires?

How many homes in America? How many home fires?

OMG!!! HOMES ARE DANGEROUS!!!

How many electric cars in America? How many car fires? We got 100% when they are submerged in salt water... Just pray you never end up in the ocean in one of those....

You never answered where the POWER came from to run the car while dissing fossil fuels nitwit.

Happens every single day
Two sherriffs were hit by a drunk driver last night
They still managed to get the occupants out of the burning car after it hit them

Submerged in salt water, and on fire. Divers need to use magnesium flares to get the same effect. Next guy I see driving a Karma, I'll know he made the money filming sea life at night. cn

Once again the point flies completely over your head.

You're bitching about green jobs in the OP, renewable energy sources. Oil is the past, your generation, relying on it anywhere is an idiotic policy.
 
Electric cars will continue to be failures, companies have been trying to build them for over a century with disastrous results. Batteries are unreliable, unpredictable and on a large scale dangerous. Chevy Volt (yes lets talk about a more reasonable priced car) has yet to even give an official price to what a battery replacement will cost after warranty runs out, best case 3,000 worst case 9,000 (if you bought one today case and cell modules). So as of now we have a 49,000 dollar car that runs (in perfect conditions 50 miles on a 8 hour charge) and after the generator kicks in you get (35 mpg city/40 mpg highway). You can find a ton of cars from 12k to 25k that get that kind of mileage and you don't have to jack with cost of premium only fuel or plugging shit it in the rain, snow or worry about it blowing up in a flood. The volt is the top selling plug in electric car in the US and it still takes a loss for every unit sold. We haven't even brushed the subject this is a soccer mom vehicle if you're not a desk jockey and actually need to use a vehicle for hauling, towing or basic blue collar scenarios this car is a bad fucking joke without a punch line.

By definition, GM considers the 16-kilowtt-hour Volt/Ampera battery to be at the end of its usable life cycle when it has around 70-percent charge-holding capacity. When exactly that threshold is reached could vary widely depending on climate, and how the vehicle is used – but what it also means is the battery is not useless after its “usable life.”


[h=2]Newer Volt owners have reported range varying from around 25 miles in cold weather to just over 50 miles with gentle driving in perfect weather – batteries function best and "like" the same moderate weather humans do, and the Volt's battery thermal management helps keep it closer to its ideal zone.[/h] As one potential scenario, if someone normally gets, say, 38 miles electric range on an average day, and the battery became 75-percent worn out, the car might get only 28.5 miles electric range compared to when brand new. So no doubt, owners will see usable electric range drop over the years.

Horseshit. Oil will be the energy source of choice for vehicles for another 20+ years. EVEN IF someone invented a water fueled engine tomorrow, it would be 10 years before it replaced the combustion engine. "The past" what a dolt.

The best thing about NOT driving a "green" vehicle? That would be, not watching your family perish when you get plowed into by the drunk guy driving a full sized SUV. No thanks, feel free to pile in those deathtraps with 4 wheels, not me. Maybe the laughable 5 star crash rating bestowed on those toy cars will comfort you as you slip into a nice, long dirt nap.

'MERICA!

Yes, the past. 20 years is a shortsighted vision of the future. Get on the bus or go under it. Relying on oil is a demonstrably stupid plan. It requires us to set up shop in dangerous parts of the world with dangerous people.
