Things will change in time. EV's are better in many ways and will only get better. Haters are going to hate. Get your phumb out of your a and figure it out. Of course over priced cars won't sell, EV & ICE, both over priced right now.
The oil companies bought the EV patent and sat on them for 100 years. The patent dissolved and now governments decided that everyone must drive EVs now, but almost no research has been done for the last century. For the past 15 years or so, a few companies have working hard to produce EVs, and I admit, they have done a decent job making nice vehicles very quickly with limited tech innovation in this field. But come on, we have had 100 years to work on these technologies but basically ignored them until recent times. And all of a sudden, governments want to mandate we all move to EVs in their infancy. Rushing this tech is proving to be dangerous. The batteries are exploding, self driving is killing people, charging ports are failing (and sometimes powered by diesel), and just basically GTA in real life. We are not ready for EVs. The tech needs more time and research. Last year, I purposely bought a Mazda specifically because it was an ICE engine with a traditional automatic transmission (not variable). Why did I choose this vehicle? These technologies are well tested and reasonably and affordably easy to fix.
How about the wife does not like putting gas in a car. So you want her to plug in every day. Also every chance she can come across a charging station. Yepper, that will work. Dream on Alice. Oz is just over the horizon. The car cost is my problem. Feeding it fuel. Her problem. I wonder why her average mileage went up when I stopped filling it?
@@paulclarke245 Even if that were true (and it isn't), EV sales still aren't falling. Nice try though. And oh, I'm looking at monthly sales compared to year prior, not month prior. There is a lot of seasonal variability in vehicle sales, so you need to compare vs. prior year results. Monthly EV sales have increased over prior year month for each of the past 36 months (data from U.S. Department of Energy) This excludes hybrid and PHEV vehicles, whose sales are also increasing.
I have ZERO interest in sitting at a charger for 30 min to an hour for the vehicle to recharge. Those charging stations are going to become target zones for criminals. I would not want to be caught at a charging station when times get tougher then they are right now as criminals will see these people as more wealthy.
EV was a lie it's all about cash just like always… The pollution is just transferred to the electric grid. And don't forget the batteries the number one threat. If they don't spontaneous explode all by themselves then a car accident Will certainly be your demise. Have you seen what these batteries are like when they catch fire they cannot be put out. Do a little search on RU-vid and be amazed just how dangerous they are. It was a scam from the very beginning
I can buy a 4 year old EV with 0% battery degradation, 30k miles on the clock and loaded with tech, and do 10k miles for the price of 3 (yes 3) tanks of petrol. And what has battery degradation got to do with insurance costs?
@@petebusch9069 FFS Calm down, its only an EV. Ive leased my EV for the last 4 years, its loaded with tech, the battery health has been checked and its 100%, I think this is the usable battery where as the battery overall will have degraded as you stated. The new cost in the uk was £34000 when I leased it, it's done 29000 miles and the price to buy is £11850.
I'm glad the EV market is now collapsing and this BS is coming to an end. Still waiting for the same to happen to the other so called "alternative" energy sources like wind and solar and hydro but also to silly nonsense such as wave power and the like. Government interventions by regulations and subsidies are distorting the market and things are done which should not be done and are not good economically or environmentally. Also the climate nonsense will hopefully soon come to an end and people will realize that the additional CO2 has been greening the world and increasing crop yields in farming for decades now, which is a good thing. We should be making more CO2 not less. The morally right thing to do is build more coal power plants like China is doing.
EV's fit a niche that most of us don't want. Too expensive, to restrictive in long didtant traveling, very poor resale market. I would never buy a used EV.
Most Americans can't easily plug in an EV at home.. without that, EVs are a PIA to own. I have 5 cars in my driveway.. juggling them around to plug in an EV would be utter BS.
@@KrustyKlown The grid is not even able to support that in most parts. Charging EVs needs much more stable and sturdy [power grids. While at the same time solar and wind power are destablizing the grid. Greens aren't doing basic math and understand too little of physics. It's a lot of wishful thinking and virtue signaling and nothing behind it. To me, they are a bunch of clowns. But every one will have to pay the price for these net zero and woke DEI policies. China will surpass the USA economically within less than 10 years, even a Trump presidency cannot prevent that any longer.
50%. that means half are not disappointed. New technology and growing infrastructure. You don't like the idea yourself so of course you'd make a comment like that.
A friend had a EV and was charging it in his garage in Mounds view, he woke to the smell of smoke and heard crackling, his garage was on fire..and the EV was shooting out sparks.
Never going to happen. I don't see them build the additional coal power plants to replace all vehicles with EVs. The grid couldn't handle the load. The EV scam is coming to an end now. It's over.
He who fails to learn from history, ends up repeating mistakes that they could have avoided. Toyota should learn from Kodak's mistake of underestimating digital photography
