California gubmint sez ... You can't buy a gas powered car ... also ... You can't plug in your electric car
🧠 These people are stupid!
And THAT is exactly the scheme.
California will suffer an energy shortage and “Flex Alerts” through Labor Day due to high temperatures, and residents will be asked to conserve electricity during afternoons and evenings, which means refraining from charging electric vehicles, among other uses.
I have a Nissan Versa Note and I get about 38 mpg in city driving. If I was content to go 55 on the highway, it would get 50+ mpg. At 70, it gets about 38 :) (although I've never driven far enough at a constant 40mpg, to do the measurement, according to the mpg gage, it would get about 60mpg at 40mph)
