ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi o ke kaʻa ʻana i ka EV ma mua o ka puhi ʻana i ke kinoea a i ʻole ka diesel?

E like me ʻoukou, e nā makamaka heluhelu, ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka pane pōkole ʻo ia. ʻO ka hapa nui o mākou e mālama nei ma nā wahi āpau mai 50% a i 70% ma kā mākou mau pili ikehu mai ka wā e hele ai ka uila. Eia nō naʻe, aia kahi pane lōʻihi - ʻo ke kumu kūʻai o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana e pili ana i nā kumu he nui, a ʻo ka piʻi ʻana ma ke alanui he manaʻo ʻokoʻa loa ia mai ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka pō ma ka home. Ke kūʻai ʻana a me ke kau ʻana i haleEV chargeraia kona mau koina. Hiki i nā mea nona ka EV ke manaʻo e uku ma kahi o $500 no kahi keena hoʻokele UL-listed a i ʻole ETL-listed charging station, a me nā mea nui ʻē aʻe a i ʻole no ka mea uila. Ma kekahi mau wahi, hiki i nā mea hoʻoikaika kūloko ke hōʻoluʻolu i ka ʻeha—no ka laʻana, hiki i nā mea kūʻai aku o Los Angeles ke ʻae i kahi $500 rebate.

No laila, ʻoluʻolu a maʻalahi ka uku ʻana ma ka home, a makemake nā polar bear a me nā moʻopuna. Ke hele ʻoe ma ke alanui, akā, he moʻolelo ʻokoʻa. Alanui wikiwikinā kahua hoʻoiliʻoi aku ka maʻalahi a ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi, akā ʻaʻole paha lākou e maʻalahi. Ua helu ka Wall Street Journal i ke kumukūʻai o kahi huakaʻi alanui 300 mile, a ua ʻike ʻia e hiki i ka mea hoʻokele EV ke manaʻo e uku e like me ka nui, a ʻoi aku paha ma mua o ka mea puhi kinoea.

Ma Los Angeles, ka mea e kaena nei i kekahi o nā kumukūʻai ʻaila kiʻekiʻe loa o ka ʻāina, e mālama ka mea hoʻokele mach-E hypothetical i kahi kālā liʻiliʻi ma kahi huakaʻi alanui 300 mile. Ma kahi ʻē aʻe,Nā mea hoʻokele EVe lilo i $4 a i $12 hou aku no ka holo ana i 300 mile ma ka EV. Ma kahi huakaʻi 300-mile mai St Louis a Chicago, hiki i ka mea nona ka Mach-E ke uku i $12.25 ma mua o ka mea nona ka RAV4 no ka ikehu. Eia nō naʻe, hiki i ka poʻe holo kaʻahele EV akamai ke hoʻohui i kekahi mau mile manuahi ma nā hōkele, nā hale ʻaina a me nā wahi ʻē aʻe, i manaʻo ʻia he 12-buck premium no ke kaʻa ʻana i ka EV he kūlana ʻino loa.

Makemake nā ʻAmelika i ka pohihihi o ke alanui ākea, akā e like me ka WSJ i kuhikuhi ai, ʻaʻole hele pinepine ka hapa nui o mākou i nā huakaʻi alanui. ʻOi aku ma mua o 150 mau mile ma lalo o ka hapalua o hoʻokahi pakeneka o nā kaʻa holoʻokoʻa ma US, e like me kahi noiʻi a ka DOT, no laila no ka hapa nui o nā mea hoʻokele, ʻaʻole pono ke kumukūʻai o ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana ma kahi huakaʻi alanui i kumu nui i ke kūʻai. hoʻoholo.

Ua ʻike ʻia kahi haʻawina 2020 Consumer Reportskaʻa uilahiki i nā mea hoʻokele ke manaʻo e mālama i ka nui o ka mālama ʻana a me ka uku wahie. Ua ʻike ʻia he hapalua ke kumukūʻai o ka EV no ka mālama ʻana, a ʻoi aku ka nui o ka mālama ʻana i ka wā e hoʻopaʻa ai ma ka home ma mua o ka hoʻopau ʻana i nā kumukūʻai hoʻolimalima ma kahi huakaʻi alanui.
