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.

I have the truck and I couldn't be happier with it. You're going to love it!

So cool... local delivery or are you doing a road trip to pick it up?

I live relatively close to the service center so I assume a pick up there.

I can never get past how dumb the dyson fan headlights look on these things.

I like the look, personally. Makes them unique, but I can see what you mean.

I’m all for electric vehicles but can’t stand the push to keep everything a SUV.

I mourn another giant car on the road

The R3 looks like it will be a sedan-sized hatch. I think the planned R4 will be even smaller if the pricing strategy they hinted at is to believed.

For all the shit Tesla is, they at least proved you can fit enough batteries in a sedan.

You can get batteries in a motorcycle at this point. Being massive isn't required.

While I fully understand the sentiment, for me its nice that there are so many option that fit my needs.

Also, even in a reasonably small car, hatch>trunk.

I've seen one in my neighborhood and it's beautiful. If my ID.4 wasn't already paid off, I might be looking to trade it in
