What if you could plug-in your car in a sidewalk outlet? Well in some cities around the world it might not be so long before this becomes a reality. For some areas like London, chargers are already available (for free).
They call it the “Smartletâ€. This sounds like a good idea but only 120 or 220 volts would be available for your plug-in car. With the infromation we got from automakers, it would take about 14 hours with a 120 volts outlet and 6 hours with a 220 volts outlet to fully charge your vehicle. What good can that be?
