hey man!!
polution is a factor but at this time not the most important
there are prior factors
1
to lower the energy price that is becoming impossible
2
the lectric car has to be developed while
looking further to future
**while other finer sources of electricity will be developed *(*(and
you bet
they will be ** it si mainly a matter of investment )
and in future you will have the luxury to be a chooser
as for now
there is stil a long wat ubtill batteries will be developed to answer
the problem satisfactory
so to sum up"
betetr batteries and mass production of electricity
for instance fusion !!!
