Whys ask me, I'm from the outback of Alberta. You fuks are the ones who claim to feel the pulse of today's society. I mentioned the Arrow a few posts back for a reason, that was the last time Canada was allowed to have an independent thought.
If any of you could actually read and comprehend you will also see where I said it was a 'similar article' and you should 'keep looking'. All you are doing is showing my 'prophecy' about your stupidly pays off in spades on you very next post.
'That should be enough that you will look through a few articles, not my problem if you pass.'
'and assembled them in a circuit box 24 inches long, 12 inches wide and 6 inches high,'

WTF are you trying to say? Is this a real option? Gather radio waves amplify them up to power a coil to run an alternator to power an electric engine is your solution? It's been known for decades why isn't it being used today in modern EV's?

How can anyone disprove that Tesla is the first US auto maker to succeed from scratch in decades.

Why wouldn't the white natty's hate it?

Is white natty’s supposed to be derogatory? Is it a sin to have European heritage ? Should one be ashamed because he has white ancestors ? How do you feel about mixed race unions and their progeny ?

Survival on Wall St is a totally different hurdle than having the vehicle get from point a-b as desired. If you don't already know that you should before you start off on what others (should) 'know/do not know at the moment' to be compatible with 'your kind'.

Next Dodge Challenger to be electrified, says FCA boss

Dodge is the last of Detroit's Big Three to truly keep the muscle car purpose and heritage alive with the Challenger and Charger. As the Mustang and Camaro have transitioned to sports car-like experiences, the high horsepower Dodges have stuck to their guns as straight line behemoths with little intention to compete with the others in corner carving.
People still dig the old-school-cool of cars like the Challenger, as sales actually went up while Mustang and Camaro sales took a hit in 2018. That said, new FCA boss Mike Manley said things will be changing in an electric way for the next generation in a report by The Detroit News. "The reality is those platforms and that technology we used does need to move on. They can't exist as you get into the middle-2020s. New technology is going to drive a load of weight out, so we can think of the powertrains in a different way. And we can use electrification to really supplement those vehicles."
News of electrified muscle cars is nothing new at this point. Ford says it's going to reveal a Mustang Hybrid in 2020. And with Al Oppenheiser (former chief engineer for the Camaro) moving to GM's electric division, you better believe Chevrolet is working on an electrified version of the Camaro. This, however, is the first solid evidence we have that FCA and Dodge are caving into the world of electric for its muscle cars.
What Manley said next is something we all know to be true, but a bit heartbreaking nonetheless. "I think that electrification will certainly be part of the formula that says what is American muscle in the future. What it isn't going to be is a V8, supercharged, 700-horsepower engine," Manley says.
Even if it's a bit silly, we all love the Hellcat for its 707 horsepower V8. Clearly, plenty of other people do, too, because Dodge keeps cranking out more insane versions of the car with the Redeye and Demon. As for how much electrification Dodge's muscle car will receive, Manley wouldn't go into extreme detail on. Though he does say that electrification "can't be the dominant part." This should provide some solace to all those worried the gasoline engine could disappear from the American muscle car. Just as Dodge is reluctant to stray from the original intent of the muscle car, it's not hard to imagine the Challenger/Charger being the last couple to go full-electric. Gas engines supplemented by 48-volt systems or plug-in hybrids will most likely be the end result when we first see electrified Challengers.
