All tools can bestow superpowers and motor vehicles are no exception.Superpowers provided by motor vehicles include the ability to quickly travel and transport goods and people on local trips, and the quite different but key superpower to travel to new and more distant places on road trips. .
If my predictions are correct, by 2025 almost everyone buying a new car should be buying an EV. Does this mean "range anxiety" is a thing of the past, or at least, will be a thing of the past by 2025?
This is a look at what range anxiety actually is, and the reality of EV range, and whether we need the same range from an EV as from a fossil fuel car, because, lets face it, while range is getting closer, most EVs, unlike the Lightyear One pictured here that can run on solar power, still don't match the range of internal combustion engine cars.
This page is a reference for recharging electric vehicles, both now and in the future. Refuelling EVs, as discussed elsewhere, provides a more familiar experience, but recharging comes with its own perhaps surprising benefits, plus, it costs less.
Infrastructure to allow refuelling EVs is growing, but with EVs, recharging most likely remain more popular, the understanding and right preparation for recharging is advised well before getting an EV in order to fully benefit.
In the race to stop CO2, there are many scams involving hydrogen, but are the public or the backers being scammed? There are many myths, and in the end, Hydrogen is a light, but inefficient battery solution. This is an exploration of where Hydrogen may be a solution, and where it just does not add up.
I heard someone ask, “if EV (Electric Vehicle) sales continue to increase exponentially at the same rate, how long before all sales are EVs”? While
After a long history resisting action on climate change, the Australian government finally ‘committed’ to net zero by 2050, and then did an about face,

If you follow car industry publications, there both facts and well recognised predictions that combined, signal a storm for the car industry. Reality: Why Makers
Batteries for EVs have progressed from being very expensive even while delivering an impractical range, to less expensive with a just acceptable range. Only now are batteries showing signs they can soon enable price completive EVs with a range that inspires confidence.
I have been exploring electric vehicles. What is needed to make them affordable, and what it is like to live with them. When exploring charging, the charging systems became so complex that I have extracted what I found as its own exploration, which I plan to keep updated as a reference. It currently does need an update for wireless charging, but some information can be found on my exploration of the logistics of charging.
