Electric Jeepney

A few days ago, I read that two electric jeepneys were leased to Makati. I appreciate the efforts of Makati City to reduce pollution and hope that more cities would follow.

There are just two things that would hinder such project unless it would have generous sponsors. First, I read that a unit costs around Php300K. Secondly, it would take about 8 to 12 hours charging in a plant for the automobile to run around 80 to 100 km.

I hope that scientists would invent a way to reduce the cost of the vehicle and the charging time, esp. if these units would be soon sold to private corporation or individuals. It may discourage a lot of people to support anti-pollution sentiments if cost would be such high.
