Re: Popcorn

An electric car can be extremely simple and bought for less than £500

So there is nothing fundamentally complex about an electric car.

In fact its a heck of a lot simpler than an IC car. No pistons, cylinders crankshafts timing gear injectors water radiators, starter motor clutch, engine management computer, exhaust system, starter battery, lambda sensor turbocharger, MAF sensor, water temperature sensor oil filter...

Look under the bonnet of your car, remove everything and put back a single computer to control a single electric motor, and perhaps some aircon rads and a fan. Of course brakes and steering are still required, but these are not rocket science.

An electric car is a cinch to make.

Apart from a suitable battery.
