Watwheels Supersonic March 22, 2019 Share March 22, 2019 How come an EV still requires a 12V lead acid battery? Does an EV has an alternator to charge it or is it charged by the regenerative system? There isn't a lot of information about it online. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mkl22 Twincharged March 22, 2019 Share March 22, 2019 (edited) petrol cars ~ 0.8L/10km ~ $2 per 10km diesel cars ~ 0.5L/10km ~ $0.80 per 10km kia niro 17.1kWh/100km ~ $0.35 per 10km gahmen lose money with more electric cars. Be prepared for battery/electron/charging station tax which is why carbon tax was introduced. this will be a tax on the upstream of power generation. when it comes to milking money from the population the govt is more creative and resourceful that you would even think.
