The brother in law drives a old EV, it is old enough now it only had a battery range of 35 miles. Which still works for him since in is less than 35 miles to work and back. He claimed his old EV with out accelerate about anything on the highway. To 20 MPH.  |
Must be that EV 1 that slipped through, running on the original lead acid batteries.
Took a 200 mile trip today a/c running . Lots of battery left with no stopping for any charging.
Don't know newer Corvettes that well but had a little run on the way home with what had to be built in the last 10 years from a red light, and the Y walked away from it.
I DID like the exhaust note of that Vette.
