Get idea for vehicle that needs large amount of torque. A battery/capacitor setup might work well in this application 😀
 
In the world of physics and engineering, To get a certain mass to a certain speed with resistance figured in, it takes a certain amount of energy. Where that energy comes from is the only variable. The manufacturing of electricity and batteries are usually left out of the equation. And if you removed government subsidies, the energy would cost the consumer about the same. I will say that the D.E.Q. has forced the engine manufacturers to build more efficient engines so that's a good thing. As far as the Co2 crisis goes, .04% of the earths atmosphere is Co2. 2% of that is man made. Seems like there is plenty more to worry about. Just my .02 (.20 adjusted for inflation)
Your math needs adjusted, our opinion is worth less today than it ever was. Adjust by adding two or three zeros as follows. .00002
 
Diesel / Electric vehicle - isn't that an oxymoron ?
All modern railroad locomotives are diesel-electric. 1930’s technology.

It does not matter what the science says, today we can change science by wishing on a star. This must be what happened to all those kids raised on Disney. It just took a long time to take hold. IF a man can get pregnant then mere physics is childs play.

Are you talking about Hollywood, or Disney, or both?
 
All of it blends together today. There were no more dams to build and moons to go to so they just change the world in an imaginary way. And force society to believe it. Just like pretending we can all drive electric cars and not curb our travel in any way.....
