More each day, I'm convincing myself that it's time for an e-car. I don't drive that much - run what errands I can on bikes and work close to home. I don't need to drive a lot. So an electric makes sense. Still not settled on the car, but one thing I haven't really explored is what this means for car audio. I don't have a lot to work with now - 85A alternator, and it's plenty with modern efficient amps, but I'm still going to want more than what the factory audio can provide.
Anyone have any ballpark estimates on what I can expect for available power use in maybe a mid-tier electric? Any other surprises to consider when going from gas to electric? I do live in a climate which sees extremes in the Summer & winter. It can range from 0F to 100F and either side of that. So I would expect a great deal of demand for heat and cooling in the Summer & Winter. The good news there is that I'm rarely driving more than 15 miles in a day, so wouldn't expect range to be an issue, but would like to have ample power available for at least a kilowatt of audio. Reasonable?
