I might stand corrected ;)

I was into EVs long before rotarys. ;)

I have to admit that surprises me - I tend to assume rotary owners with other, more efficient vehicles in their stable were doing a bit of "penance" for their rotary's relative thirst - a carbon offset :)
Although, I've always bought vehicles that were relatively fuel efficient while being fun to drive, so my 7 is a bit of a divergence from that norm for me too - not that it is terrible, but it averages about 26mpg in mixed city/hwy/autocross duty, which does make it the thirstiest car I've owned.

I've always seen EVs as the far more sane solution. It was just only recently battery tech caught up and made it really practical. Yeah, from the 20s to the early 2000s one could have an EV, with a range of maybe 80KM on a good day and old lead acid batteries. But car and feeding of those batteries was brutal, or you'd have to invest tens of thousands into some exotic battery (at the time NiMh or NiCad). Things have changed now and we are finally seeing proper EVs with performance to excite.

Had plans for years to build an EV but then I found rotary and things were never the same.

I just want to drive to work and be able to plug in my vehicle there. I recently started to do that with my cell phones. I figure in 10 years I might save a nickel but it feels rewarding to do it somehow. lol

At the Cambridge Mall I noticed what appeared to be charges for Electric vehicles. It was cold so I didn't get out to do a closer inspection but driving past it sure seemed like it. I hope it is!!

There are charge ports popping up all around London. One of of the parking lots I regularly use has an EV charger with a sign that says "Electric vehicle and hybrid parking only". So one day I park my Insight there and come out to a note left by the parking attendant basically saying if I misuse the spot again my car will be towed. Huh? I wander up over to the booth and ask what's up with the note. They tell me they have a list of cars allowed to park there and mine wasn't on the list. Apparently I'd need to drive a Volt, iMieve, Leaf, Prius or Fusion Hybrid. And those are the only vehicles they consider valid. Anything else is not allowed.

I'd personally avoid the use of charge ports anyway. What they charge is massively inflated to just charging at home. Frankly with the distance most people drive and the ranges most of the EVs have, I don't understand how drivers could be running out of juice anyway. Guess it's the same people who constantly forget to plug their phone in overnight.
