  1. A better plan. While battery technology evolves and lawsuits prevail, BYD should be held to the fire to meet specifications in the contract. BYD was well aware of climate conditions and operating parameters with affect mileage and battery charge of current so-called electric buses (a true electric is a trolley bus with wires; who IndyGo operates are battery-prowerd buses). Long term economic analysis indicates economies with battery buses compared to diesel and hybrid vehicle, but this is only true if the battery buses meet operating specifications.

  2. Anybody who continues to support the lies and lunacy of IndyGo needs thrown out of office. They always knew the electric buses weren’t going to work; they had already failed in Albuquerque, New Mexico with the same system as the Red Line. Marion County is ran by mathematically illiterate fools.
