New EV fee proposals charge owners 2-3x what gas drivers pay in federal tax
New EV fee proposals charge owners 2-3x what gas drivers pay in federal tax
As everyone who lives in the SFBA knows, it's been really cold around here recently. Cold weather reduces #EVrange by reducing battery efficiency.
I just discovered how much.π€¦ββοΈ
I drive FAST which reduces the range of my #iD4Pro from it's publicized EPA range of around 250 miles to just 200-210 miles at 100%.
The recent cold weather has further reduced the car's range to only 170 miles. Good thing that I don't drive it much.
The lease on the iD4 Pro expires in July 2026 &, if/when I lease another, I will not lease anything with an EPA range of less than 350, which is a pretty short list. π€·ββοΈ

Chery is the latest car brand to join the solid state battery party. The Chinese brand said it is expected to fit the next-generation batteries to its cars from 2026.
The world doesn't particularly need a 100% solid state EV battery today, but it will probably need one tomorrow
