In other words, there is nothing in production that makes even the

300 ÷ 120 = 2.5

So now you are claiming that there is a pure electric car in
production that gets 300 miles to a charge?

Where is it?

Oh, I think you may find it about 8 posts
back above this one, where I told you the first
time. However, they frequently exceed that
distance.


The Tesla Roadster only claims 245 miles/charge.
The Tesla Model S claims 300 miles/charge, but Tesla says it wont be
available till 2012.

Oh yeah - the Tesla Roadster has a list price of $109,000.
The Tesla Model S is listed at $56,500.
There is a $7500 tax incentive that drops those prices a little.

You can buy a pretty nice plane for $109k.
