Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

Turning gas-fueled cars into electric ones can be four times cheaper than buying a new EV.

This is a very positive step forward for the reduction of fossil fuels as obviously the majority of the world isn't able to afford the expensive/luxury vehicles that the EV market seems to be focusing on.

which isa good thing.

But being cheaper than a new car doesn't help you if you have to finance cars in the first place. Kinda doubt there's going to be a ton of banks willing to work with this.
