I don't...but I wouldn't mind an electric bike....my neighbor has one. I would love to use it in the summer for outings...but I don't think I'll ever have an electric car. Some of my trips are long and I wouldn't want to have to stop to plug it in! LOL

I want to get one of those electric pedal bikes, the ones that you can charge the battery by pedaling or by going downhill. You can do a bunch with them, if you are tired, go 40 km/h with the electric motor, or if you are kind of tired, go half electric motor and pedal half(saving energy), or pedal all the way/go downhill(and charged the battery). I am going to wait for them to come down in price though, because I don't really need one right now, with the price they are at now.

Electric vehicles sound good, but the plugging them in for 8 hours to charge bit doesn't (to me, at least).

That's no different than getting gas in a car, the e bike plugging for 8 hours isn't to bad. cd

electric bike - I have not bought one so far. I plan to buy one next year. It is very convenient to have one.
Many people around me have bought electric bikes, but I have not bought one so far. I plan to buy one next year. It is very convenient to have one. There are many kinds of electric bikes in the market. It needs to be charged for around ten hours. I think that it is friendly to the environment as there is no air pollution if we ride electric bikes compared with motorbikes. Thank you for the discussion.

I would want both, I think it is really a wonderful invention! But as for an electric bike, I would be scared that someone would steal it, to be honest...

I do not have an electric vehicle and I would not recommend buying one at this point in time. I will wait until the technology is much more advance then buy one. I will let other people test them for now and so they can post reviews about them.
