Good article.

Thanks, John. I saved the article to furnish to my Doubting Thomas friends who argue that any EV is a bad EV.

Good article, I agree with most of it but the author does make the fatal flaw of comparing efficiency of the fuel used in the vehicle rather then the inefficiency of generating fuel in a coal plant. Burn coal, generate heat, create steam, turn turbines, etc. I agree that electric is one way to be better stewards of this planet but we need to be honest about the real efficiencies’. The greatest part of the Aptera that we all love is that we are using 25% of the batteries that other EVs are using to create the same effect, getting us around. This is not going to be true of the Hummer or Electric F150.
