I believe that means the peddle is missing two electrons instead of just one.

The Aptera is leaking electrons? Well, better that, I suppose, than the current helium leak at the LHC, er, "Halo".

And it is true that with regenerative braking, stepping on the "-" will gain electrons...

Two cars?!

Just when I was thinking it might be a good Electric Car standard item. Not invasive, just kind of a cool "in" thing.

I hope Tesla adopts it. Some "we are all in this together" unity would be nice.

These also offer another term for writers (they love that).

I stepped on the plus pedal and felt the power of electrons pushing me back into my seat.

The plus pedal is always ready to give more.

I was nonplussed how this little motor could rocket the car with just a touch of this pedal.

Just when Martin was asking for a new word.

Actually, the number of electrons is basically unchanged. It's their potential that's changing.

Hey! Another Electric Vehicle descriptor term!

This one works well in article titles:

The Tesla Potential.
No shifting, all Potential.
Changing Potential. The thrill of a Tesla.
Potential Energy has never been so much fun.
Living up to potential.



Sorry to rant again but I guess I'm in the mode.

How about this?:

...After 3.5 hours, the battery pack is "all excited now". I pushed on the "excitement pedal" to let the pack share some of that excitement with the eMotor. Now the eMotor is letting me have some excitement too!
