Here we goooooo!! Canada is expected to announce this week that all new cars must be zero emissions by 2035. Only 12 years left to buy a gas guzzler, people!
Let me guess, you live in a large #urban centre? Or perhaps a suburb of such?
When you live somewhere where there are no fast chargers, and possibly no chargers at all, along your 750km drive - and there will still be none there in 12 years - "just go #EV" starts to sound a little like "Hi, I live in Toronto and/or Ottawa and/or Vancouver, and I don't care how it affects you".
Add in drives which require ICE cars to have the heater full blast the whole way... bye, battery range.
@cazabon @erinwhalen But there will be Hydrogen #HFEV there to save the day. Isn't that right @Hypx ? I mean sure we've gotten electricity just about everywhere and can't even get Hydrogen to the LA basin consistently, but I'm sure it will make it to the far reaches of Canada in a decade, yes?
@antares @cazabon @erinwhalen The hydrogen infrastructure is in its infancy. But it scales up a lot faster and cheaper than the electric grid.
