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.

I would be hard pressed to live in a bunch of these states.

IL and MI are cool but a lot of these...

I wonder if R3 production will happen at all in Illinois? Or not until this new plant is up and running?

As far as I know, no. Normal, IL plant is for the R1’s and the start of R2. Georgia plant will be R2 and R3.

My R3 dreams are once again in shambles
