Volvo Electric Car ReCharge Concept hybrid In-Wheel Motor EV

its great! but imagine u pass trough a hole... some roads r in bad conditions...

Yeah - this is the way to go. That overnight charging crap they're talking about is bullshit. You need to keep the car charged on the fly so it can keep going. I was thinking of a gas powered charging system that doesn't power the car - it just shifts between two sets of fast charge batteries to keep it going. But this probably works out just as good. Now all we have to do is get past the elite and their oil company pals. From what I've heard, they're gonna drag this out for a long time.

See Tesla's writting on this very subject... search tfcbooks on google and use the link /tesla/1904-12-29.htm ... Tesla couldn't understand why we are not using the internal combustion engine for the purpose of electric generator instead of for drive the vehicle itself.

I wonder whos patent is this, because is the best desing, but nobody is doing, my guess is because of patent rights. (some oil sheik might be the owner) imo.

I know who he is, heard a lot about him, but he doesn't get the credit from it as they got rid of him so I heard.
He is an ordinary hard working guy from UK

Tesla as been explaining this concept in the early 1900 (instead of using fuel to move the car, to actually generate electricity from it). I can't believe how long it took before we start using this technology. I can't believe either we are not yet utilizing this yet.

It is fine but still crappy. The 4 electromotors still have to pull the death weaght of the gas engine.

then again the power of the gas engine is converted in electricity and conversion means losses! maybe the gas engine should be connected to the wheels as well while driving on gas and recharging batteries

it s just nearly to 100% electric car... the next near future i think there will be.... hope so... but traffic prblm still cant be solved

you could always have a solar panel on the top of the car for extra charge time while sitting in traffic. i know i wont fully recharge the battery but it will help

yeah these cars can really haul. i want one.or a conversion kit would be cool too
