Interesting - thanks.

Why don't they reveal the cost of an eight hour charge?

Cost is negligible. It'd cost about the equivilent of getting 250mpg. Gas engines in an automotive application can only achieve about 13% efficiency, the rest is dissipated as waste heat through the radiator, exhaust, brakes etc. EVs can easily get into the high 90% efficiency range.

A solar panel roof would seem to make sense.

Unfortunately Exxon-Mobil, BP, Chevron-Texaco, Shell, Total and others hold all the patents for decent solar (and battery) technology. They're not selling.

Every damn time a company comes up with a substantial improvement in solar or battery efficiency, the big boys swoop in and buy 'em out and make 'em disappear. Every time.

You don't really think XOM or the goob is going to allow you to tool around in a car that's maintennance-free and free to drive, do you?
