[OFFICIAL] Discussion for the next new Nissan 400Z Z35?

Gianni

This is all moving to fast for me. Like how can you change to electric vehicles so fast?! It gives me anxiety. Rest In Peace gas engines. Rest In Peace my love and passion for Nissan. I'm still keeping my z34 forever. 60k miles on my 2012 and still very strong.

Only a few places I've been have plugs for electric cars right now. By 2025, you will see more of them. By 2030, they should be very common. If you are using a public charging station. It will take about 9hrs for a full charge for a Tesla, and cost about 8 cent per mile. Oh........there will be push back on the electric car. Because of cost of the cars, range, and the time it takes to recharge. Just wait until people see the cost of a replacement battery! It's about 1/2 the cost of the car.

Not to mention that disposal of the batteries is terrible for the environment. The environment that you're supposed to be saving by using a car that runs on electricity generated by coal, stored in batteries using heavy metals from strip mining. It's almost like people don't want to consider that their hippy golf cart is likely worse for the environment than a full size pickup once you factor in all the parts of the equation.

Yeah, look at the mining sites in Chile and other places.

The song of my people.

I can't believe how few people are connecting the dots here. Apparently electricity is produced by ******* magic or something.

Plus they will have a generator in the truck to actually go somewhere and get back. Recharge is a cold hearted bitch.

Electric cars will not be replacing gasoline motors anytime soon. Electricity will become to expensive to afford charging a electric car.

A couple of European countries have already banned the fossil fuel engines beginning in 2030. More are thinking about. It's all electric. The other thing. Now we are paying fuel tax on a gallon of gas. Electric cars don't pay this. What has been talked about is a road users tax. It's based on the number of miles you drive per year. They are still trying to figure out the details on payment. One idea is at the end of the year. You will pay one lump sum for the number of miles driven. The other is that you pay at the time of recharging. The recharging socket will have a wireless sensor to the car's odometer to detect the number of miles driven since last recharge.

European is so much different than North American. Most European countries are so small that everything is centralized or have fantastic public transportation to get around. Most of their borders are less than 200km apart.

I would really like to see it perform on a vacation trip longer than 500 km(~800 miles) and be practical. I just don't see it in the next 20 years.

Maybe a gas/electric but time will tell.

I see more of a hybrid type of car for the us because of the distances. Europe more of the electric. Really would like the H2 fuel cell get more R&D in it. Think it's the best way to go.
