Each kilometer of road cost about $1.2 million. The system keeps track of each vehicle’s use and charges the driver accordingly. A fully-charged battery in an existing, affordable EV is enough to get 87 percent of American drivers where they need to go throughout the day. As at-home chargers become more common, that figure could reach 97 percent, according to Erik Fairbairn, founder of POD Point. The bigger the vehicle, the more power needed to move it, which can be a strain on batteries. Likewise, electric roads make sense to power vehicles that move a lot throughout the day, so we could use them along public bus routes or places taxies frequent.
