People inherently believe that electric vehicles are slower than their gas powered counterparts. Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman of the popular television show MythBusters are going to put those beliefs to the test next season. They were busy riding ATVs and filming for the ATV related episode in Lake County on Wednesday according to the Record Bee.
I have to say that I love the Mythbusters series. They put things people claim to be true to the test, often in spectacular fashion. I usually agree with their findings but not always, I look forward to seeing them race gas vs battery powered ATVs. Full disclosure – Jamie Hyneman is involved in the development of an electric powered ATV (Model One). Don’t assume that the show will be biased however, if anything his knowledge of electric and lithium battery ATVs will benefit the show.
