12,000 Miles for Less Than $200

Without doubt, electrically powered cars were the hot topic at last month’s Frankfurt show. It will be some time before we see a lot of near silent electric cars on our roads.

Unfortunately there is actually only one vehicle, the Mitsubishe MIEV supermini, that is close to becoming readily available. A Government sponsored trial is about to commence with 25 drivers using the MIEV daily on British roads.

There were over 3000 applicants to take part in this trial, clearly very popular. There has been so much interest that Mitsubishi have ordered another 500 cars for 2010.

There is so much confidence in this model that both Peugeot and Citroen have signed agreements to sell the electric motors with their badges on them.

One of the key selling points of the MIEV is economy. At standard electricity rates it costs just 96p (about $1.6) to fully charge the battery. A fully charged battery will enabley the MIEV to travel between 80 and 100 miles. This enables the MIEV to travel 12,000 miles for only £115 ($183).

Another feature of the MIEV that often draws comment is how it travels silently. There have been concerns raised by road safety campaigners including advocates for the blind and elderly.

If you have never encountered an electric car before you’d be excused for expecting the performance and speed of a golf buggy. But the MIEV is capable of a top speed of 87mph, easily fast enough for any of Britains roads. But be warned, travelling at speed will quickly deplete the electricity supply.

The future for motoring is looking increasingly electric. The future looks like our roads will be full of silent, battery powered cars plugging into lamp posts to refuel on cheap electricity.

pThe world is struggling at the moment due to the credit crunch. One of the worst suffering industries at the current time has to be oil suppliers, the price of crude oil rises and rises every year, this puts the costs through the roof.br / br / But as technology advances we start to see the use of oil degrade more and more, but should oil suppliers really be worried?!–more– Not all oil suppliers should be scared but the specific vehicle suppliers should look at evolving.br / br / The reason for this is because as we can all see the government is very much campaigning for people to start using more eco friendly vehicles, they have even started a vehicle scrappage scheme. So I feel that within the next few years most of the cars on the road are going to be the new breed of electric running ones.br / br / This will not only help up clean the environment but it will also help families in road costs. I mean that the price for fuel is forever increasing. With the current electric cars none of this will actually be useful anymore, instead all you would need is to connect your vehicle to a charge point.br / br / So one of the industries that could potentially see a hit in the future definitely has to be the oil suppliers that cater for commercial and non commercial vehicles. And what is there to say that it will stop there if we are going to clean up the roads why not clean up the skies and have electric running planes, with the current rate of progression in technology we may see it soon./ppa href=//www.boilerjuice.com/orderTankeredOil.php? target=_blankOrder Heating oil/a For all your a href=http://www.boilerjuice.com target=_blankHeater Oil/a/p
