dageurreotype Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Preferably with an inbuilt speed limit of 25 kilometers per hour alike the electric bikes. Watch fatalities plummet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboGeisha Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 What a naive suggestion by "Europe" to promote electric cars in Thailand. You can't really pass or overhaul other vessels at high speed in a sharp curve. You can't accelerate enough when the traffic light just turned red. Useless rubbish.

Thian Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I see more hybrid cars in Bangkok then in Europe. But Bangkok has so much traffic jam that you don't want to get stranded with an empty battery. Also aircon running on battery doesn't work wel/longl i guess. But electric cars with a huge solarpanels on the roof would work well i would think. If you park them in full sun even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anon467367354 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) you can buy generators that run on water, I don't see why we don't have more cars that run on water, it's been and done well. I can't see why there isn't some kind of running contest between all the universities to come up with the best free energy machine. India has them, Australia has created them, but Thailand is fracking and drilling and talking about putting a coal fired plant on a tropical island. Come on Thailand, go to Youtube and see what's out there and do what you do best, copy them! Edited October 13, 2015 by gr8fldanielle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tequilasunset5 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Rather promote driverless cars, that are programmed how to back up and turn into a parking slot frontwards. Also programmed tonpass safely on a 2-lane highway. Lets see if anything else helpful? Humm... How about proper left and right turn at an intersection. Maybe a deprogrammer installed so that the car knows it is nit a motirbike. A program to yield to pedestrians in crosswalks would help.

BuckBee Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 ^ big part of it is infrastructure changes to support electric vehicles, I f they take over a huge percentage the changes required in electric power networks is quite huge. The technology also needs improve & become cheaper as not any longer range elec cars at sensible money. they also not as green as marketing would suggest if you review it on birth to death of the vehicle. Don't see much support for electric cars in EU, even in US it bit thin besides california . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
