Charge time for an electric car dropped to just 10 minutes
In the race to make electric cars a viable alternative to internal combustion engines, Nissan announced that it had developed technology to charge a car in 10 minutes.
The time it takes to charge a car is seen as a major hurdle to widespread acceptance of electric cars. With the current technology, it can take several hours to recharge an electric car.
Kansai University in Japan is credited with inventing the technology.
The Sydney Morning Herald reports that the technology is a decade away from commercial production.

A decade away from commercial production. *Siggh* I know it is meant to be likely that but why the good techs are so slow to come about! In the meantime ride your bikes.

At this point in time, choosing an electric car is going to be more difficult than ever. Not only is the technology so new that many people are barely aware of it, let alone familiar with it, but the selection has yet to reach any type of substantial point.
