Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

The most eye-stealing highlight is the Flash Charging technology, which works in conjunction with the latest Blade Battery 2.0. 

– Charging from 10% to 70% takes only 5 minutes. 
– To charge to 97%, it only takes 9 minutes. 
– Even in temperatures as low as -30°C, it can still be fast-charged in 12 minutes.

That's awesome!

I'd love to have one that's a small form truck or mini-van with a flat front for maximum visibility and minimum footprint.

To be perfect: Absolutely no touch screens allowed, no internet, no satellite, honestly I'm good without Bluetooth. Make it feel like a 90s vehicle, but electric.

I missed it in the article, does it say how well it holds its charge compared to non-fast-charged ones? That tends to be the limiting factor in many things, as it's much harder on the battery. I doubt they'd be pushing it if it wasn't an improvement though

The truck everyone says they want, but no one will buy.

It's not out yet, how can they? I don't even like trucks and I am considering buying one when they become available.

Connectivity is a legal requirement iirc.
