My Subaru is only nine months old, and I just rolled over 10,000 miles on Sunday. I'm super happy waiting. I think the timing might be perfect right about the time I'm ready to replace this car. Hyundai has an electric car available in California, and I talked to someone leasing an e-Golf who liked it. There seem to be more options coming, and I'm happy to wait. I do think it's pretty neat, running a car on electric. It might mean renting occasionally for long trips, but that's ok.
I like it! I got the Impreza five door. The AWD is great in snow. It's a really great all around car which is just what I wanted. I really liked my old Honda Civic, but I wanted a small, practical, AWD car, and that's what the Impreza is.
Yeah. Electric cars are pretty cool. I'm a bit worried about whether or not we have the resources to keep making them, such as lithium. There seems to be a bunch of back and forth arguments to that issue. Though, if space mining ever becomes a thing, that issue might get resolved pretty quick.
Yeah, I see the same back and forth, and the debate is such a mess I don't think anyone can make sense of it. I'm worried the prices won't come down enough to be widely adopted.
