Japan Fuels Electric Car Mayhem!

Sorry the title sounds bad, but whoa! After plans were revealed recently for Japan to design and build a plug-in electric car charger, the EV world was rejoicing! Now Japan is planning to insert recharging stations all over the country, begginning with Tokyo, and then moving to the other cities and islands across Japan.

The news came as quite a shock to the so called ‘greener-nations’ like the U.K. and the U.S. They have been fighting so hard to beat each other to the punch, in the sense of designing and building the perfect car. As Japan has already built it, marketed, and made a tidy profit on the selling of these electric cars, the recharging stations are the logical next step. These will mean that drivers around Japan could potentially drive anywhere on the islands without fear of their cars running low on battery power. They want stations to be close together, enough to make it easy for any drivers to recharge, anytime. It is hoped that, within the next few decades, these recharging stations will completely replace the current gas filling stations.
