How well do electric cars do in bumper to bumper traffic like we see in the evacuations in Florida?
In: Technology
They are absolutely better than gas cars in bumper-to-bumper traffic. This is why a lot of early EVs are commuter cars like sedans and hatchbacks. The range issue is less pronounced since they’re travelling shorter distances, and they’re more efficient, since they don’t consume energy when at a standstill. Not to mention the powerband complexities explained elsewhere in this thread that make EVs effective in situations where they need to accelerate short distances.
