Ben Murray-Bruce To Buy First Lucid Electric Car (Photos) by HeWrites(op): 4:56pm On Apr 10, 2021
Senator Ben Murray-Bruce says he has put some deposit on a yet-to-be manufactured Lucid electric car, Igbere TV reports.

The former Bayelsa East lawmaker who uploaded pictures of the car to Twitter on Saturday said it could go more miles per charge than an electric car manufactured by Tesla.

He wrote:
“In practising what I preach, I recently put a deposit on this yet to be manufactured Lucid Electric Car. Delivery is early next year. It’s capable of more miles per charge than a Tesla. An amazing machine.”

Murray-Bruce advised that “Nigeria should ban all combustion Engine cars by 2035.”

Murray-Bruce has been an advocate of “green cars” which would see off the era of combustion engine cars.

Please they should ban petrol cars by 2035.

Nigeria is too hot already for fossil fuels to cause more environmental depletion.


For those quoting me for charging booths. Once the ban and the year are determined. Many investors will align to proffer charging booths probably powered by generators. I trust our Chinese men to invade our markets with them as they have done with power banks. EV models that last longer per charge will also be promoted and that resolves everything, competition will make it affordable too.

Electric cars will really change the design of cars but definitely can't give the raw power combustion engines give.

I hope it will come with a reliable POWER BANK because our electricity providers are not reliable here.

That's another disadvantage of electric cars. And from what I'm seeing, it is just a matter of time before gloom and doom comes upon Nigeria

Before then, solar powered charging stations will be everywhere, thanks to Tesla's inbuilt roof solar panels and batteries that can last for 16 years.

Seriously guys, there are better electric car makers than Tesla, especially in China.

Tesla is overhyped IMO.

2035 is feasible. That is 14 years from now ba?

Enough time for other countries to generate enough Tokunbo for us, having in mind that majority of Nigerians can’t afford new ones.

Why did the electric car finish the race early?

He should use his generator to be charging it. Unless it's solar compatible.
