How about a 4 passenger, 900 kilo EV with a 300
kilometer range. It has been built, tested and proved
but not produced. It's called the Selectra Sunrise.
Can use show an air car that has been built that
can do, has done what you say? Practical air power
cars are vaporware.
Just because it's been on the internet doesn't
mean it's real or works.
I'm presently building a 2 passenger, 700 kilo
EV with 200 kilometer range. When I come up with the
cash I'll produce it.

If you use 4 times as much power your pollution
comes from the fossil fuels that the extra wind power
would have replaced , the larger windplant needed for
the same range.

Ev'ers recycle batteries. Done right little
pollution happens. I admit outside the US it's not
always done right but as more EV's are on the road
recycling these dead batteries become more valuable so
people search time out for cash.
New batteries like lithium are a lot less
polluting and will be the future of EV's.
