QUESTION:
Will the "per mile driven tax" be added on to gas cars on top of gas tax or just on electric cars?Also how much will it cost to install the computer system in our cars that reports miles wireless and will it work with older cars? If it doesn't work with a older car, will we have to buy a new car by law?
-
ANSWER:
I saw some discussion of this a while back. The plan was to install GPS units in vehicles or require manufacturers to install them in new vehicles. Governments would then determine the miles driven and tax accordingly.GPS and vehicles raises privacy concerns that have yet to be completely addressed. To my knowledge, no state has yet instituted such a tax and it is presently only a matter for discussion.

QUESTION:
What are the cheapest electric cars with at minimum top speed of 65 mph (100 km/h)? Now? The near future?
I would really like to get an electric car in the near future and was wondering if there is any out there now that have a top speed of at least 65 mph (100 kmh). And I need something that is affordable (less than ,000); so you don't need to mention the Tesla Roadster (But I'd love to own it). Yea what are the best prospects for an electric car in the next five years with the top speed mentioned? Thanks.
The Xebra Zap goes a little slower than I'd like.-
ANSWER:
Green Vehicles Triac. Available beginning in July, it can go 80 mph and 100 miles per charge for k.http://greenhome.huddler.com/products/green-vehicles-triac
Or there's also the Vectrix electric motorcycle which can go 62 mph for around k.
http://greenhome.huddler.com/products/vectrix-electric-maxi-scooter
Regarding the other suggestions - as you note, the Xebra can only go 40 mph, the Nano will not be available in the US, the cityZENN will cost over k, as will the Chevy Volt. The Triac is surprisingly affordable - the cheapest highway speed EV that will be available for at least the next few years.
