Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Who cares, we also used to ride horse and buggies that took months to get around. Wanna talk about that too?
And now we have much better technology
Yeah, EVs that offer a superior driving experience with none of the pollution ICE vehicles have.
Drastically less pollution, but a car is still a car. The tires still shed microplastics (more, actually), the electricity used to charge the batteries come from somewhere, and there's a carbon footprint involved in building a new cars to replace ones that crash or age out.
Not an argument for keeping ICE vehicles, but holy hell do we need trains and buses.
No argument there. I try to use renewable energy when I can. At least when I charge at home, I know it's renewable.
