Clean Speed Has Come a Long Way
I’ve been driving an EV for years now, but I haven’t had much luck converting even my most climate-conscious friends.
I find myself repeating the same arguments: EVs are quieter, faster off the mark, cheaper to maintain, and if I’m honest, just more fun to drive. You’d also be in the company of people trying to make the future better.
Unfortunately, old habits, perceived limitations, and a lingering sense that EVs are some kind of compromise still get in the way. It’s the same resistance, incidentally, that I run into when I try to get people to taste the Impossible Burger.
But I now realize that there is a much greater embodiment of this idea than anything I could say: the all-electric global racing series, or Formula E.
