Yes. Electric cars are on the rise but still the minority here.
Are they actually the majority there? I can't begin to afford one here. Or I'd have one in a heart beat.

That's all super interesting thank you! I'm glad the newer cars are thinking of things like this. I just never realized how wasteful older cars were until now. I mean I knew they were wasteful, but they are on a whole nother level than I knew.

Yeah but we all drive. That energy is really only used to start the car and is just excess while we are driving around. We could be capturing it. I do actually have a battery that i charge while driving and it charges a ton while driving for work and is enough for my phone and laptop for a night. And I don't even have a better inverter installed yet. I'm not saying it's green. Just that gas powered cars are wasting a TON of electricity driving around every day. It's a waste.

Maybe not a full size fridge. But the point is there is a massive amount of power wasted. You're just nitpicking.
Eta: if you store the power in the battery you probably could run a fridge for quite awhile as we use our ecoflow for small fridges and there are larger batteries than ours.

Ahhh eventually we'll learn. I'm envious.
