Do you currently fill up at home? No. This car will not require you to charge it at home, it can probably run 400+ miles before it needs a recharge, then it will get charged at an Electric Station, just like a Gas running car. 6 minutes is a bit more than what everyone spends at the gas station.
No, but where I live, there aren't any places to charge other than my home, which in case you aren't following, means that I have to charge at my home. A quick check of my electric bill, and using the numbers others have put up here, each charge of this car is going to cost me about $75. Given the distance I drive to work, and need to drive for other essential things, it will add $375 to my electric bill each month. This is much more than my gasoline bill. Even if you limited a small percentage of people to using this type of recharging, it's going to be huge problems for the grid, since most people will be charging at roughly the same time. So, have some kind of capacitor/battery/phlebotinum device to spread the load throughout the day? That's not going to be cheap. Didn't RTFA, but usually these electric vehicle pressers don't mention price, due to them typically being significantly higher than a comparably performing gasoline vehicle. The additional costs for the whole package are very significant compared to what we already have. I'm not saying the whole endeavor is fruitless or a waste of time. But like so many of these green projects, the 'green' qualities only means the pollution generating portion gets pushed from the end user higher up the line. Great for your conscious/pretentiousness I suppose, but the net result is status quo.
Can anyone explain it to me in simple terms? I'm not a physicist.
Sure...wherever you go, there you are..
May I pass along my congratulations for your great inter-dimensional breakthrough. I am sure, in the miserable annals of the Earth, you will be duly enshrined.
