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.

Nice. Switched to electric cars in 20/21 when my country still subsidised them heavily and few people wanted one. Don't regret it yet and this makes it seem unlikely I will.

This is even better news for electrification of public transit & commercial vehicles! One of the chief arguments for delaying electrification of buses & taxis is the battery age question. If you can't drive it much beyond the break even point compared to ICE vehicles, there's little incentive to convert now. If you could get 40% more life than advertised, that's a game changer!
