Will electric cars encourage sprawl?
Got me thinking about the growth and inevitable dominance of electric cars that they will actually be a boon IMO for our cities, encouraging the continued car dominance that has caused the plague of urban sprawl.
Do you see electric cars as a boon for our cities in that they will enable urban sprawl and keep it as the acceptable standard? Given the range, the lower cost compared to filling up with fuel. Higher commuting costs might encourage some folks to live closer to work, but if it becomes cheap, it'll only further feed into the car/highway mentality.
