"Philippines urged to try electric vehicles"

[Ry_Tower]

but treehuggers will say you gotta start somewhere

if not now, when?

if you don't start now, it's never gonna move forward

oh well... this is what happens when something is driven by ideology

P50,000 per battery pack. With the need to have TWO packs for each vehicle to ensure minimal downtime for the e-jeepney to offset the limited range (50 to 60 km per full charge). The battery packs required 8 hour recharging time.

Actually... here's the funny thing. They claim increased range for the batteries.

Seems like the reason the first generation one had such poor range was because it used a converted drivetrain, with a gearbox, driveshaft and live axle. The current one works much the same way as dedicated EVs do... direct drive. Which means a nearly two-fold increase in battery range.

I'm currently compiling data for an article. Can't say much more before it's written. ;)

I would be IF the supporting infrastructure is there like fast charge stations. One question I'll ask myself is if I can make a long distance trip in one with accessible charging stations along the route
