Electric

Over the past 12 months, Tesla stock seems to continually reach new highs. Like a mountaineer in the mountains, who discovers behind the bump which he thinks is the summit, another summit, the path which continues to climb. So it is with Tesla on the stock market.

France will soon ban the use of ICE cars!

What is an ICE car? ICE stands for Internal Combustion Engine. An ICE car is thus either a petrol engine car or a diesel engine car. At the moment there is no other source of energy used. Hydrogen is not used and people who think (dream) about using it in a car would use it no through an engine but through a cell.

The rise of the electric car in France

As in the rest of Europe (and the US, and China), electric cars are starting to be a very real fixture on the roads. Teslas, Peugeots, and more than anything else, the local champion the Renault Zoe, can be seen on all roads.

Charging infrastructure

The charging infrastructure is quite plentiful in the cities. Public parking in the street, commercial centers/malls, are all options for charging, for free.

This however is mostly low speed charging inadequate for a quick refill on the way to Provence.
