Still hasn’t gotten out of “development hell”, as they might say in Hollyweird? Their CEO said the exact same thing last year.

200 MILES!!!!!!!!!!!! WOWOWWOWOW....

lol.

[Zuben Elgenubi]

That's nothing. I'm actually working on pulling out flying monkeys from my arse. Right in my garage!

And no union activity either!

[cripplecreek]

Give me one that can get 400 miles on a charge and will recharge in the time it takes to fill the tank.

[DManA]

There are two dimensions.

1. How far does it go - 200 miles? Not impressed.
2. How long does it take to charge it? Three days? Fagetaboutit.

They’ve been trying to produce a “useful” electric car since 1900. Stuck on stupid!!

[miliantnutcase]

Tesla is like, “lulz...”

[2ndDivisionVet]

Yeah, and some people are working on room temperature fusion and immortality. I’m writing a novel that’ll sell 100 million copies, too.

[umgud]

Yeah, elec cars are getting better, but practical?

They don’t do well in the 115 degree s/w deserts or the Minnisota cold. They do quite well in places San Francisco, Hollywood, etc.

[dalereed]

I don’t care if it will go 500 miles i ain’t driving an electric junker!

[HangnJudge]

Government Motors is having a little trouble selling the electric model they have, even heavily subsidized by taxpayer largess

[kevao]

I get twice that from my Camry — city driving. And my “recharge time” at the fuel pump is about 11 hours and 57 minutes less.

[bigbob]

they’re having a little trouble with the 200 mile extension cord, however

[23 Everest]

I have a flux capacitor. You people are so back to the future.

[DakotaGator]

Until an electric car can be produced that is BETTER IN EVERY WAY to gasoline powered cars, I will not waste my time listening.

None of this trade-off BS. BETTER IN EVERY WAY!

200 miles per charge, EEYUP. So it would only take me 3 or 4 days to get from SoCal to my farm instead of the regular 12 hours huh.

[RockyTx]

people here are missing the point,

as far as energy delivered to the wheels,

gasoline cost four to ten times as much
as electricity

[Conspiracy Guy]

Is 200 miles the lifetime range of the batteries?

[hadaclueonce]

Bet they are looking for a 200 mile hill.

[Popman]

Wow..a 200 mile electric car...

How do you get around corners....?

Hey, that’s what the headline says.....!
