So basically it was relatively better that some electric cars now, as their range, pretty average today, can be extended using modern batteries, not a huge leap forward in 40 years and then, like now, prohibitively expensive - I think it will be a long time before they really catch on...... ;) ;)
With a top speed of 48mph (77km/h) and a range of up to 56 miles (90km)
A number of owners are planning to adapt and refine the 70s technology, replacing the heavy original lead acid batteries with lightweight lithium ones, and dramatically increasing the range of the car

I think if you were to compare it to Guffer's Leaf you'd notice a fair bit of improvement. ;)
