* Slow acceleration can use more energy than "normal" acceleration (engine efficiency).
* 45mph is a good speed in an EV (faster results in too much drag)
* 35mph gives relativly little more range than 45mph
- nsxwolf 13y agoSo us non-Leaf motorists have to treat the Leaf like a bicycle in traffic instead of a real car?
- woof 13y agoYes -a bicycle with better acelleration than most cars and a top speed of 90mph
- nsxwolf 13y agoWhich is moot if it's owners are driving it far under the speed limit.
- jessaustin 13y agoYeah, don't bother to wait until there's room to pass safely, just shove 'em off the road! Also don't worry about turning through their lane of travel, they can probably brake as effectively as a bicycle can't they?
