Re: Joule
Thank you. There are a few problems locally for this car. One is cost, as a Developing Nation, cost is a very important factor when buying something like a car. The second is recharging, I do not know of any recharging facilities in my area. But the last and most serious issue is that South Africa has, due to faster than expected economic growth, a massive energy crisis with brown outs happening from time to time, so the last thing you need when you have an electric car, is an unreliable electric grid!
