By taking a test drive in the AC Propulsion eBox, I noticed there was no gas pedal anymore. The pedal was the juice pedal and braking started by regenerating when I let go of the juice pedal. All of this got me thinking about language and its power over culture. Over 10 years ago, not many of us even knew what’Äôs a megapixel, now it’Äôs ubiquitous. A series of teaser ads lead to the main article showing new lexicons for the electric-powered car. It’Äôs usage in a sentence and an explanation is accompanied so enthusiasts can start using the new phrases. A glossary is also included, so one day, the word gearhead and petrolhead will be an anachronism. |
