Alguém já ouviu falar das baterias atômicas ou nucleares? Seriam a solução, mas esbarram nos donos do mercado.
Toda tecnologia é bem vinda, quando há o interesse de melhorar a quantidade de vida , más eu prefiro os elétricos, o ar e os oceanos vão agradecer bastante , quanto aos possíveis resíduos serão recolhidos e não descartados o impacto será menor no meio
Só vejo comentários de quem não tem carro elétrico!!! Carro elétrico já é realidade. Aceitem!!!
