Discussion of EVs and the technology around them

Hi folks,

Just found this community and curious about what everyone is either using as a daily driver or have got their eyes on in the EV space.

I'm from Vancouver, and a few years ago my partner and I bought a new Chevrolet Volt PHEV as a "bridge" car to get us through the next while as charging infrastructure scales out. We get about 100km of electric range in the warmer times and 70km in the winter. Perfect for our needs around Vancouver, while still giving us flexibility to drive out to Whistler or Banff for our vacation roadtrips.

So what are you driving?

Just found this community myself. I haven't been able to make the switch as I'm far too poor to every buy a new car EV or not. However, GM's eCrate project has given me inspiration to convert my 1965 Chevy K10 pickup into an ev. The potential for plug and play conversion sourced primarily from scrap parts makes it possible for me with my limited time and money.
