Typical from Haaretz columnist Rabinowitz. What else does he think is bad for Israel? The IDF, The West Bank, Jerusalem, Netanyahu, The Iron Dome, etc, etc. In fact he thinks Israel is bad for Jews, Arabs and Muslims. Does he think dependence on Oil is good for Israel? He must for him to hate Better Place EVs even before it started.

In reply to Maurice. But why should the consumer pay 10 times the price of power to fuel the car? Earlier promises made by Agassi was that the cars would be cheaper, thus making them competitive with petrol-run cars.

I think it’s all speculation at this point. We need to wait and see what will happen when the cars are actually on the road. As for Mr. Agassi and his company; if he wants these cars to sell here, he better have the infrastructure for them up and running! He can’t expect a car owner to have to drive to his center near Tel Aviv to exchange a battery, etc.
