if i can afford one, i'll buy a car with it. but if i can't, i'll keep using my 04 nissan.
It's unlikely you will see a car powered by those in near future if ever as they have relatively low density. But you'll definitely see those as home battery and such where size/density doesn't matter that much. And I bet it's less inflammable as well.
Edit: ha, I stand corrected, there are cars powered by these but don't expect huge range.
honestly, I'm fine with a lower range. when i go into the office , it's 15 km away from my house. i can charge up at home, drive to work, come back and charge it up for the next day, so as a daily driver it might be fine. The problem comes when I want to go on a road trip, which is my preferred method of going medium to long distance. I avoid flying like the plague, and trains are really expensive for some reason.
