    In a way it does, the 120v 15a (1800w) system america uses is limited as it needs larger cables to supply the same amount of power, where's the 240v 13a (3200w) sockets used in England can supply more power, if three phase where used 415v would charge the car using a small cable (16a - 9000w), the power used would make the cable too large to be practical using the american 120/240v system (40a@240 , 80a@120).

    I think by "ferry" he's talking about a car carrier like a train you sit on with your car (the Euro-Tunnel trains do this).

    ??? Charging rate has noting to do with the amount of volts coming from a wall socket.

    Affordable EVs won't exist in my lifetime, so good luck for future generations.

    "Range anxiety?" in the US? Don't most households own 2 or more cars? Just do what even those who build their own short range ev's do: Drive the electric the 90+% of the time you don't need the range and drive the dino drinker the other times. BTW: "range anxiety" was coined by GM as an excuse not to make a pure EV!
    Why not disagrigate info on EV sales/manufacture. No big company has put equal effort into their EV's as they have their dino drinker. None.

    Gotta laugh at the hydrogen car, "ohh no range anxiety", cept there isn't any more infrastructure on hydrogen then there is on Electric. that's why there is range anxiety.

    Drive EV and if you need long range vehicles, rent one.

    You really need to do your research. Where they get the materials to make the components for these vehicles, and the process does more harm then good. Pretty ironic, but hey if you like being another sheep lead to the slaughter. Believe anything they tell you.

    "Fairies" is not the preferred nomenclature. and why does your taxi need to be driven by a gay guy to begin with?

    Total f-ing Bullshit, no way I'll ever buy an electric car from a major manufacturer like Ford or GM. I will build my own before I buy their bullshit.
