Already happening. A remote solar charge station costs $60k to install. How much does it cost to install a petrol station? https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a35951567/jeep-charging-network-off-road/

True for the portable solar panels unless you purchased ten of them at $300 each! More realistic is to have a few solar charging stations installed in strategic remote areas. Remote solar charging station like PairedPower would fully charge EV in 1 hour. These charge at 60kW and have battery...

I would say that a small solar power station is more wilderness friendly than a gas station. Even better, pack a few portable solar panels in the trunk and never have to interact with humans again.

Its definitely a technology in transition. My EV now gets better range than my old 1967 camaro did. For about $35k one can get a brand new Hyundai Kona EV, lift it 2", and put on some all terrain tires for overlanding pleasure. We just need folks to install a few more solar charging stations in...

I have to say that I agree that the feel and sound of a 5 speed manual transmission paired with a punchy petrol engine is pure delight. There are always trade offs however. The torque, simplicity, freedom, and quiet serenity of an EV pairs well with nature. I love my mp3 player but still also...

Valid points for sure. I think as the EV technology evolves we will see more and more configurations and solutions. When ICE cars replaced steam engines they were incredibly inefficient and had poor range with limited access to petrol stations. Even my old 1967 camaro which burned through gas at...

I do miss manual transmission for sure. Technically an EV can have some sort of manual transmission (and that may come soon) but anyhing more than 2 or perhaps 3 gears would be completely unnecessary because the torque range is so good throughout with electric motors. You do notice that the...

Now that EV's are getting more popular I thought you all might want to consider the subaru solterra or if you have the budget maybe a Rivian. Others have lifted the Tesla Model Y with success as well. I was excited about the new AWD Hyundai IONIQ 5 which has better range and charging speed than...

Not sure if this post is still active but I found the discussion interesting. Now that EV's are getting more popular I thought you all might want to consider the subaru solterra or if you have the budget maybe a Rivian. Others have lifted the Tesla Model Y with success. I was excited about the...
