Talk Morgan Forums Community Vehicle Talk (non-Morgan) Electric Cars

Everything that I read on this topic confirms to me that battery powered cars are a politically motivated dead end. At the moment the real solution for the future really seems to be fuel cell technology. I realise that fuel cell cars will still need batteries but they will be much smaller than fully EV batteries. Now is the time for an international standard to be developed for a standardised rack or cassette mounted battery system.

This graph really tells the tale:



Other than energy density and range it is important to realise that hydrogen, and other fuel cell fuels, can be refilled as quickly or even faster than the fastest electric charge (which will inevitably stress the battery).
