I hope the evolution of battery capacity keeps up, so one day we can buy a car that is simply pre-charged for 10000 km or more.
The increase from 100 to 1000 came about in a decade. I wonder what the limitations are.
Meanwhile the fuel efficiency for combustion engines seems to have maxed out decades ago.
Try using you brain...do you really want to carry around a gigawatt of potential energy?
Hell yes I would.
A glass of water contains potential untapped energy of about 6 billion gigawatts. It's hardly dangerous.
I think the more crazy thing is to have a fucking bonfire running on gasoline in a metal box.
Most people would probably think you're a madman if you ignite a can of fuel just for LOLs. But they still do that every time they drive to work and back.
