The Raser Technologies Electric H3 SUV

Finally an electric car that doesn’t have so many trade offs.

The only freeway legal EV here is the NmG. I drive one everyday 14 miles on the freeway in the HOV lane here in Silicon Valley at 65-70 mph. My employer recharges it at no cost to me during the day at work for the drive home. My wife and I use it for all our errand running, including grocery shopping, six bags and two twelve-packs fit in the trunk with no problem. We get a lot of positive "thumbs-up" at nearly every intersection, not to mention the "cloud" of ICE cars that drive along side taking pictures! Seriously, get off the negative grind about how these vehicles aren't practical and really think about how one uses their ICE auto, including the astronomical cost of service and maintenance to maintain a warranty let alone the fuel costs. The NmG is available NOW with Lithium batteries and a 60 mile range for $29K. Drive one and you'll never look back!</p> Okay, a bunch of folks with no actual EV experience, armchair EV’ers.

My husband says this is all hype. None of these cars will run fast enough to be street legal where we live. Specifically, he says you can only drive these on streets where the speed limit is 35 mph or less.

Well, if that is true, it just plain won’t get me to work, no such path exists.

I see that the most expensive one up there will go up to 60 mph, but that is alot more than my husband paid for his Ford Focus, so I don’t think he’d go for spending that much.

So, is he right? Is it true that a street-legal EV is still out of reach for us?
