Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

They'll be subsidised a bit. But I'm practice, not to the extent that electricity costs

At this point, the cheapest cars being sold are basically EVs
