like James watt invention of the saying horse power of the steam engine to the number of horses, it was an impressive difference, and a stylish thing of the time to travel on a train, steam engines now are not a main part of rail transport. Electric Trains are. But the term horse power is still used today.

Do you think the electric car revolution could go the same way. Times are a lot different to ole James Watts time.
I don't know if there was a climate change debate going on at the time, i doubt it.

Maybe they should have created a new saying for electric power compared to the electric beetle, it has over 2 million electric beetle power. That's a lot of beetles.

I'm not for or against electric or gas vehicles, i just like looking back in history and comparing it to the present.
