August 25 (Bloomberg) - Movie of 1985 "Back to the Future Christopher Lloyd's DeLorean problems fueling his car after a change in count from plutonium. Today Tomoyasu Fuji has the same problem after that converts electrical energy for your DeLorean.
"My great that the Ras of my apartment complex parking lot, has no exit," said Fuji, 39, a seller of advertising in the newspaper Hiroshima, adding that those responsible for rating building wants to install an electrical outlet. "Since nobody else has taken an electric car, do not see why it should bother."
Fuji in 1981 DMC-12 is a lithium-ion battery, which lasts four hours to recharge, so it is only Friday and to recharge the local garage. This is also an obstacle to Nissan Motor Co., Carlos Ghosn, head, leaving their electricity, filed this month, which ended with the battery model Mitsubishi Corp. and Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd.
Nissan's Ghosn estimates that by 2020, electric cars represent 10 percent of the market - about 65 million units last year. Default station road to the house and is one of the main challenges facing policy-makers must overcome.
"The infrastructure, along with the price, is a critical issue that the widespread use of electric cars and drop", Mitsubishi Motors President Osamu Masuka said in launching the company in June of electric cars that mieves
$ 109,000 roadster
The Japanese manufacturers to California to join Tesla Motors, Inc., which is only $ 109,000 roadster electric car sold in the United States, which has been approved for use on the road. More battery models appear as governments seek to introduce more stringent rules to reduce C02 emissions and dependence on fossil fuels.
Toyota Motor Corp., the world's largest automaker, plans to introduce electric cars by 2012 and General Motors Co. to start selling the Chevrolet Volt in November 2010
"Governments and municipalities worldwide are establishing a strategic partnership with us to develop the infrastructure and public acceptance is needed for zero-emission mobility of commercial success," Ghosn said at a press conference List of Events August 2
Ghosn predicts that the market is too optimistic, according to Ashvin chotas, executive director of the Intelligence of Asia Automotive Ltd. in London. Even with competitive prices, fuel prices and the corresponding filling stations can claim when only a few million units in 2020, he said. Act consultancy CSM Worldwide, the global production forecasts of electric vehicles will reach only 289,000 units in 2015
Previous Flop
The first attempts to popularize electric cars have been hampered by inadequate infrastructure and production. Toyota sold only in 1900 electric RAV4 sport utility vehicles between 1997 and 2003 in the United States and Japan.
"The costs must be established, and are now in the era of mass production," said chotas. "But there are many uncertainties for the iron, before things start to take off."
One of them is in the range. Gasoline powered cars typically run 300-400 miles (480-640 km) with a tank of gas. And mieves sheet is limited to about 100 m above the full load and operate the air conditioning could reduce mieves a range of up to 62 kilometers. Stella Fuji Heavy, can go about 56 kilometers. Break Delorean (Fuji after nearly 30)
The car manufacturers say that the scales are suitable for daily use of urban travelers.
In addition, electric cars more expensive, mainly because the lithium ion battery. And mieves is priced at 4.6 million yen (48,300 dollars) and Stella in "4, 7 billion yen. Third generation Toyota Prius is a hybrid that uses both batteries and gasoline, at $ 22,000.
The costs of the battery
Ghosn did not publish the price of the leaves, but said that for the same price of a comparable gasoline car. This excludes the stack, the buyer must pay a monthly rate which Nissan says will be less than the equivalent cost of gasoline, even though crude oil around $ 60 per barrel. The crude oil was trading at $ 72.01 a barrel yesterday in New York.
Meanwhile, Toyota, Nissan and Fuji Heavy to explore more powerful battery.
"Currently, hybrid electric vehicles are still behind," said chotas. "At a time when advances in battery technology and aggressive government incentives, it may overtake hybrids.
To charge the battery, there are two options: Put on a national basis for six to eight hours depending on model, or connect the charger most powerful "quick solution" that could take at least 15 minutes add the battery is 80 to percent.
Earlier this month, three Japanese cars and electrical Tokyo Electric Power Co., the largest utility, to establish a committee planning a national network of fast-charger standard "necessary for the popularization of electric vehicles," they said in a joint statement.
Sweating and Prayer
Keisuke Tanaka discovered that while driving one of eight mieves property of your company, convenience store operator Lawson Inc. in the early days, Tanaka was trying to find the indicator is blinking red means the battery is almost dead .
With just over eight stores, tracking visits, fled back to his office, sweating and asked the car to do.
"I realized when you need it the most regular systematic collection of vehicles," he said.
The Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry estimate of 300 billion yen this year to subsidize the station payment halved the installation of 3.5 million yen (37,000 dollars), the cost of quick charger.
Quick Chargers
Tokyo Electric, which plans to buy 310 electric cars in the current year, have installed 38 speed loaders Tokyo Metropolitan Area, 11 of them are available to employees who are not.
Nippon Oil Corp., the largest oil refineries in Japan, will create a quick charger, 22 stations in the country, starting in October as an experiment to gauge demand.
Nissan also plans to introduce Chargers merchants. In addition to Japan, has partnered with the United States from Electric Transportation Engineering Corporation (ETEC), which will be 12,500 220 volts and rapid chargers, 250 in mid-2011 to the cities in Arizona, California, Oregon, Washington and Tennessee.
Nissan is working with China, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Wuhan city government to develop a network of charging stations, said in April. Partner and carmaker Renault SA, aims to sell electric cars in China in 2011.
Kouzo Abe, head of environmental services division and the automobile business in Japan, said the target site provides users with a backup.
"People feel more comfortable if the amount of points scattered in the landscape, but if we build too much, they end up in the same fate as the public telephone booth," he said. "The burden is most at home."
Fuji does not have this option. He left two heating and air conditioning, because they drain the battery too quickly Delorean.
"In winter I bring a hot water bottle on my lap to keep me warm," he said.
