Or we could just go back and keep building the 2001 Toyota Rav4 with NiMH batteries which I still to this day consider to be the best EV ever made. And, I do believe it is better than a Tesla Model S and did / could meet the needs of most drivers. It has proven durability over 10+ years and in my opinion history will show it will outperform the production EVs of today in terms of battery life. How many leafs are already losing capacity 2 years into production. How many Rav4's ran over 10 years and still had more utility than a brand new and certainly better than a 2 year old Leaf. What we need is not something new, but to go back and use what is already proven.
