Electric Car Bone Yard – France

Wake-up call!

This is a boneyard near Paris, France with hundreds of electric-powered cars.

 Mind you these are only cars used by the City of Paris and not personal vehicles.

 All of these have the same issue … the battery storage cells have given out and need to be replaced.

 Why not just replace them you ask? Well, two reasons.

 First, replacement battery storage cells cost more than half the new vehicle cost (this is why for many EV models, the price is more, approximately, double the cost of a petrol/diesel model), and  Second, no landfill or disposal site will accept the batteries.

 So these green, fairy tale electric cars are all sitting in vacant lots while their batteries drain toxins into the ground.

Still, think we need to go green right now???
