Project EVIE Blog

I was talking Project-EVIE at a midtown bar earlier today with a tourist from the Midwest who was rather floored at the supposition that an electric vehicle could make it across the US, let alone around the world. It was another eye opening experience to the major obstacles that still lay ahead for EVs. The man I was talking with was a self-professed environmentalist that had already groused about gas prices during the course of the conversation. If the EV message is still having difficulty reaching this man, then I worry who, outside big-city coastal types, is going to buoy the technology as it is reintroduced to the US market; the gulf between actual capabilities of EVs, and the public misconceptions still seemingly entrenched.
