VW Lupo diesel gets 30 more average mpg on the same route the Prius did (watch the video to the end) bennyhillifier fuck useless hybrids |

This is the reason electric cars would never catch on. the electric car is clean in itself, but the plant supplying you electricity is burning more fossil fuel to power your electric car then would would just burning liquid petroleum. |

Because last time I knew we were far behind on nuclear power because of all the green peace fags. I say we just build wind farms far out in the gulf of mexico/ far off the coast of Maine. |

Do research on the tesla roadster and tesla white star. The very few nuclear plants we have are effective in creating energy, but alot of it is lost and dissipated by the time it gets to your car. Short of having a nuclear reactor in your car, this just isn't a plausible solution with modern technology. I can't remember the name of a perticular source I read recently, I'll haveto search for it, but it said electric cars are as much as 30% less efficient because of all the electric energy that gets lost in conversion. |
