Just running a few things through my head and I felt like sharing.
1/ With electric cars needing so little maintenance, will dealers start charging higher prices for the electric cars as they become more popular? Seeing as they make their money from service and not a great deal from sales.
2/ Will Leaf sales plummet when they hit the 200000 unit mark and the federal rebate goes poof?
3/ Since EV drivers pay no gas tax for road construction, will the owners be required to pay some sort of use fee in lieu of the gas tax?
4/ If popularity of EV's explodes will electric rates skyrocket since there is not enough generating capacity in this country to supply 100 million cars with electricity.
Just some questions I have been pondering.
