EV features emblems/badges
ICE vehicles come with badges indicating the key features to brag about,
usually placed on the rear trunk lid or similar location. Some examples
are: "Diesel", "ABS", "TDI", "AWD", "Kompressor" and "3.6L". This is
part of the marketing sizzle and helps generate interest in thease
features/options/sometimes extra profit producers. I bought some
"ELECTRIC" emblems to put on my bike and car (when it is delivered in a
few weeks) and they should make a few more people aware that there are
alternatives on the way to work, and trigger some opportunities to
explain more.
Has there been some thought about making/putting "features" badges on
our EV's? For example: "REGEN" would help awareness of re-using kinetic
energy instead of wasting it as heat or stimulate some questions of
"What does it mean?". Likewise for battery chemistries like "NiCad" or
"Nickel-Zinc". (Some are best avoided, like "8 Inches" replacing
"3.6L", which would not be that thrilling or well understood, and if
replaced by a Horsepower rating such as "28HP", would underwhelm most
people used to seeing "200HP" in the specs.)
Any comments? Mike?
Regards,
Doug
