Yikes, UK might have to ship their remaining gas cars to the US cause we're less prepared to leave gas than they are, given the size of our country. I still don't see a single electric car charging station in Arkansas yet, WHERE IS IT?,(reply>), @Retro Skaff You might be right, but please consider that there are many "nationalist" Americans, and because of them we portrait a picture of "careless and stupid" peoples with money and power (just because stupid peoples are loud, we know it). While it isn't true at all, but there are also "nationalist" peoples from EU, who are butthurt because US doesn't "respect them enough(basically they think that they are the middle of the world)" so they come up with many stupid and ungrounded ideas, and many Americans were influenced by this. We have many little man with little power, and we have noone that "far away" from us as far the US president is from the peoples. So we can make laws that support us better. But still we are just as stupid and careless as Americans are, and you guys shouldn't listen to us all.,(reply>), @Gabriel Choosylieas You're big statement's making me jealous of the UK dude. Wish we Americans had better regulations like that. Companies like the FCC are doing the bare minimum of maintaining logic due to costs. Like that's the whole problem with America here. All the citizens are having to put up with LITERALLY THE STUPIDEST AND LAZIEST decisions of multi-billionaire corporations, and for what? WHAT MAY I ASK THEM? NVIDIA AND MICROSOFT ESPECIALLY! I'm pissed with my own country it's so bad.,(reply>), @Pixl Rainbow UK HAS A PLACE CALLED ARKANSAS?! Whoa, every country has it's own Arkansas. That'd be funny.,(reply>), Well, there are many gas car enthusiast as well, also you can't buy new gas cars from 35, but you can still buy used ones.<br>Yeah, electric cars are more common here, but it makes sense, because of the regulations we already made and also the distances and speeds we have to make to the shop/job. The countries in Europe are small, but its dense, compared to US we drive way slower and less, and that is exactly the thing that EV s are good at. EV s have to evolve. It isn't the fault of Americans.<br>The energy density of the lithium is ~0.6 MJ/kg while gasoline is ~45MJ/kg. Even if the efficiency of the combustion engine is around 20%, that is still around 9MJ/kg energy you can use. And if we calculate with 1MJ/kg lithium with 100% efficiency(it is close to 100% tho) you get that the same mass of gasoline will take you 9 times further. Soo the only solution is to place batteries everywhere too, and hope that you have enough. We still have to mention that the density of the gasoline is around 0.7kg/L, while lithium is 2.5kg/L, so in terms of space for the same effective energy you need only ~2,52 times more space for the lithium than for the gasoline, but because of the increased mass you have to spread it more.<br>Edit: After fact checking: According to the US Department of Energy gasoline is actually around 120-140 MJ/kg, witch throws the calculations a little off in favor of the gasoline, but the conclusion is still the same.,(reply>), which Arkansas are you talking about? When I tried to look for Arkansas in the UK, it just gave me the town called "England" in Arkansas, USA
