Apologies to jump into the comments of a review of a film I’m in but NO the carbon footprint is NOT REMOTELY the same as F1 and that should be obvious to anyone. Read more

Who gives a heck what the gold standard for hugely redundant, wildly inefficient technology is? Read more

Good luck on your trip!

Some of my friends recently drove EVs to the arctic from the Netherlands. No charging issues. Range anxiety in most of the world is fictional, it’s a bit like pretending there’s something under your bed.  Read more

Depends. Solid state, ideally - but the fuel cell model that electrolyte “charging” allows would be better. Read more

Are you unhinged, my friend? We all plug our heckin phones in at night. Read more

To be fair, almost zero automakers make their own batteries. (Maybe NIO?) Read more

There currently are some high density flow batteries - unfortunately they achieve ten times the standard density by using lithium ion and are still woefully behind the density of any large scale chemical battery. Read more

This was a statistical point myself and editorial disagreed on. I think they aren’t, they think they are. We both had sources. To conclude, as an old millennial: who knows what we are doing. Read more

Earlier this week I tweeted some Magic:The Gathering F1 cards. I’ve been here. Read more

You’re absolutely right - and price point is a huge issue for EVs, which goes along with availability. Once the big European markets fall I can’t promise it’s gonna change in the US but it will bring a shift. China’s going and India’s converting but their markets have rarely affected the west except that batteries are Read more

That... is the joke. (Except with a lil bit of actual insight) Read more

Ah so - active in South America, it’s the performance end of Citroen. I know that might not sound sexy but they’re a repeated World Touring Cars winner and they’ve put together some really exceptional cars - I recommend a google for DS Performance to see the goods. They’ve been doing powertrains in FE for three Read more

Yep - but the battery takes up potentially much less room and the e-axle is minute. You could make a sports off-roader that properly looked like an Ironman car with this. Read more

Well indeed - it’s got a lot more in common with an ICE than most powertrains, structurally.... Read more

My dude I’m a freelance journalist who spends most of my time dehydrated, sleep deprived, hungry and jetlagged beyond comprehension. At least for being CEO you get the big bucks. Read more

To be fair and taking things wholly seriously, I think DS may eventually come up with something around the right range for you. I also think you might like the NISMO Leaf, which I would pretty much do anything to have one of - they’re screamingly exciting, like getting your first bangaround but with all the stuff Read more

I appreciate your loyalty across two different sites. I have some good news for you from McLaren later. Read more

Did you not hear? I am selling them to Norway. Those guys have moose and it costs fifteen dollars for a beer, they’ll be fine. Read more
