The Dodge Challenger Message Board

Why not? Hopefully NOT in a Challenger though....

i would be the guy driving the electric chally

Hmmm, interesting, I wonder if 'they' will do to Chrysler what "they" did to G.M.'s highly successful EV-1 after G.M. invested close to a billion Tax Payer dollars developing it?

Lol, what kind of electric motor have you got under the rear end? What kind of voltage are you puttin to the ground with that setup? Chrome cooling fins, whoa, thats trick! An edelbrock performance voltage regulator and batteries? Sweet!

Ok im done.

Not much talk about the downside parts of electric cars/batteries.... I guess that you will have to change the battery pack after 10 years or something. Maybe not a problem for many of you since people do not tend to keep their cars that long. It is worth mention though. A battery pack is not very cheap nowadays and I doubt they will become much cheaper in the close future. Just my point of view...

Doesn´t rechargeable mashines loose a lot of their edge when one or two years have gone (The battery does not come up to full capacity when it has been recharged a number of times)? I guess the same thing probably applies to electric cars also.

I use the same type of Lithium battery in my electric assisted push bike. They have no "memory" effect and work very well. But they are expensive to replace. My bicycle battery is almost $400 to replace and was 1/3rd the cost of the whole bike.
