Default unlimited range EV is being reported

I saw this on another board, with a lot of debate if it was even possible. Do any of you experts know if this could really be true?

Default Re: unlimited range EV is being reported

yes, of course its possible. There are in fact two methods of achieving this that I can think of:

1) You stop, recharge the battery in an outlet, go....stop recharge the battery in an outlet, go. Its unlimited range right? As long as you recharge

2) Install pedals in the car, people pedal and that generates electricity used to recharge the battery used to power the car. You'll go what, maybe 5 mph?

Other than that, let me know when they invent a perpetual motion machine.

If something sounds too good to be true, it generally is. But let's chat a bit about how to properly post another URL:

Well, our lawyers have given us specific guidelines in which we must not deviate from. Off the record: It could be the first unlimited mileage, electric car. This said car might have a revolutionary, self-regenerating battery system. This car would have some of the sexiest curves and doesn't resemble any electric car you have ever seen. Oh, and best of all, what would you say if you could buy this car for under $25,000?

There is no information here so I won't be 'holding my breath.' But now there is enough information that others won't have to waste bandwidth clicking on another 'come on.'

Seriously, posting a URL without any reference or citing of the source material must be avoided. We call them 'click-through' and are a favorite technique of SPAMers ... we hate SPAM.
