I drove the Leaf to San Diego's official electric car celebration on Sunday. More than seventy electric car owners were there. Free lunch! Lots of talk about high-voltage Level 3 charging stations, which are starting to roll out in California. Those make long-distance trips more practical; a Nissan Leaf could theoretically charge from empty to 80% in 20 minutes!
Unusual to see a parking lot full of non-guzzlers. Two owners of the brand-new Tesla sedan showed off their beautiful cars:
This one had a sticker price of over $108,000. YIKES! If you can afford that, I guess the federal and state incentives don't matter very much.
