The infrastructure to support the e-car does not yet exist. Further, this onlooker has seen no non-political statement of when the necessary infrastructure will come about.


In California, probably after the "train to nowhere" is completed and running.

That depends upon the tolerances on the engine, just like a ICE for an automobile.

That 29K has nothing to do with tolerances and everything to do with all of the certification, paperwork and inspections required by the FAA for all the parts and materials used in the overhaul. Also an A&P mechanic costs a hell of a lot more than the corner garage.

Looks like EV's are going to be an even bigger problem as they apparently are throw aways after 10 years or so, no one is going to spend $30K to repair a 10 year old car.

You go California, such idiots, this is the problem when government decides it knows better than free markets.


True estimate, but very misleading when viewed in context of the actual facts. Read the dealer comment in this Snopes investigation:
