Much better for the electric technology. But I am not going to ride/drive
one. I used to ride motorcycles, but at least you may have a chance of
surviving a crash, but this thing is worse than a Smart Car for safety.
Even if the body stands up to the crash, you are going to have most every
bone broken even if you survive. My complaint is the push to say an
electric car is going to replace the standard vehicle. Lack of range,
government subsidies to the excess ala Tesla, and the fact that most
electric cars will be small and have limited carrying capacity. A nice city
car, but who can afford $30k+ for a 2nd car for the local trips? Buy a lot
of gas or diesel for the money. Especially if you figure the time value of
the money.
