Comment:
The most effective way to get the majority of commuters to drive pure electric cars is to offer them a major benefit that they can't get with their gasoline or diesel cars. The Tango commuter car is the only car that can double lane capacity and quadruple parking capacity without giving up any comfort or safety, and in fact, increases safety, accident avoidance, speed, convenience, and pleasure of driving. Many years ago I suggested to Dr. Lloyd that I could license the patent for this car to the State of California at no charge for 100,000 Tangos. He thought that CA would do this if it weren't $32-billion in debt at the time. The Tangos could be put out to bid to automotive companies, or other potential manufacturers. I would expect that fully-certified Tangos could be delivered for $20k each at 100,000 volume. They could be rented out to commuters who would not have to commit in order to test drive these. Once they did, and saw the convenience, a huge market of possibly 50% or more of all single-occupant computers would take off. Please see attached file.
