They should be nervous.... One fireman I talked to, said that a couple have already died... they touched<BR>the wrecked vehicle and got shocked! There has already been a bunch of required design changes to allow <BR>for cutting circuits from outside the vehicle in the event of a crash. Use your imagination as to how many <BR>points of access might be needed! If you come upon an electric vehicle crash, and you hear the electric <BR>rotor turning, Don't Touch! You could very well become the ground wire!<BR> <BR>Rex<BR> <BR>

<BLOCKQUOTE class=EC_gmail_quote style="PADDING-LEFT: 1ex">Indeed!!! I like what Tesla Motors have done with their sports coupe. With minimal weight in the 300 hp motor (I've read the motor weighs 75#s...wow!!)and no real transmission, the car can be made light. I've also read that batteries are not complete losses when they lose cells. Only the bad cells get replaced which keeps repair cost down. I like that aspect of these cars a lot. And the 200-250 mile range on a charge also works just great with simple overnight recharge cycles.<BR><BR>The price tag is the only thing that doesn't compute.
