What is faster to refuel a Audi A6 ore a Electric car?
-
electric car...it doesn't take any fuel. :rofl (unless it's a hybrid)

Haha true,but wich car is faster ready
Hybrid cars are not Electric cars
-
Huh..
Well, I guess you could consider stored electrons in a battery, as "Fuel" for an electric motor.. :D

:lol if you're wondering how long it takes to go from empty to ready...the audi will be faster.

Not if you have to refine your own fuel from crude it isn't.
:bolt:

No since 2013 the E-car is double fast refueld...only in America

People can't line up to park a car hth they gonna manage to not run this thing over? Great idea but our population cannot comprehend attentive vehicular operation. Check out the attention paid to cup holder placement and it's regular inclusion in ads for vehicles.

Every one does realize that the electricity for electric cars has to come from somewhere right? And in most cases it ultimately comes from fossil fuels in one form or another.

What do you think produces the electricity you charge it with? Magic Unicorn farts??

never seen a gasoline run power plant...

Umm.. you said "fuel" not gasoline. ;) Even if the electricity doesn't come from traditional fossil fuels (oil, coal, gas) there is a price. I'm just amazed at how many ignorant (not directed at you) people promote electric cars as the ultimate energy solution as if electricity just comes out of the wall by magic.
At least for North America, the purebred electric car is a horribly impractical idea (very limited range, very long recharge time, heavy and hazardous batteries, current grid is already nearly maxed out, etc..). It's true that electric drive at the wheels is more efficient, but it's much more practical in every way for vehicles to carry their own powerplant (AKA series hybrid) the way that diesel-electric locomotives have for decade, then to plug it in to the current power grid, and charge a huge bank of batteries. I've wondered for years why no one has built a diesel-electric passenger vehicle yet.

Audi A6! :aok
I used to own one, a 2000 A6 2.7t 6spd quattro, It had the cold weather package if I remember correctly. (which includes a ski condom and maybe some other stuff that I dont understand or care about)
What is important is that I managed a 14.3 1/4mile twice in a row (completly stock car with pirelli p zero nero tires). :D Fuel for me was I think around 18mpg.
The closest match in my opinion would be Tesla model S. That's a car I would love to own and I think compares in size and purpose and price to an A6 in my trim.
I'm not sure what you mean by "faster to refuel" because the incredibly obvious answer is the A6, or any gasoline car for that matter. Which you I am sure already know.
Are you asking which car is better? or faster? or more fuel efficient? I have no idea myself but I suspect that using a Tesla S as the contender it would win in every category.

lol, ya no doubt...with a range of 100-275 miles no thanks on the batteries. funny you mention the diesel-electric idea, that idea kept me awake last week trying to figure out whether or not a 2 cylinder diesel would be enough to do the job. i think minimum of 1kWh output and up to maybe 3kWh for light duty trucks up to 1 ton.
