You might me right ( but with the research I have done it only looks like it is climbing) but the ICE market is crashing even faster. The American Car market is nose diving at a alarming rate
Medium priced EVs only cost $15000 - $25000 at the moment ! 20 years later , you will see Legacy Cars still in the US , Japan & a small number of EU countries only . 30 years later , you will find Legacy Cars in Museums only ( like Kodak films ) .
Nope. Early adopters are no more. EV has to convince the masses on merit alone and that is not happening. This is why politicians are resorting to EV mandate.
The cheapest EV in the US is $24,000 quote from EV Viking 20 Years later no EV manufacture will still exist as they will all be bust 30 Years later you will only see parts of your car hanging from a wall (for power storage)
@@PelleGIT No1 ever said Nokia wasn't going to be replaced. Battery lack the power, endurance and efficiency compared to ice cars. If EV does take over it will not be by these current battery improvements or upgrades, They will need to invent a new type of power that will match ice cars and even if they manage to invent this, its only match what we already have had the last 100 years.
They are not, if you look at the sales records 15m last year. I guess you are looking at USA and that is a unique market and POTUS has been doing everything he can to stop imports of foreign made EV’s which are killing Local made EV’s
Not mentioned:The amount of copper NEEDED. I have seen/heard reports that in order to meet the projected demand for EV's by 2050,MORE copper is needed than ALL that has been processed EVER in recorded history!!!!LOL
@@glidermike1 Once again, ButtTube is censoring comments..... "The More Electric, The More Copper According to International Copper Association research, copper use increases dramatically along the scale from gas-powered cars to fully electrical vehicles. Conventional petrol-powered cars contain around 9 to 22 kgs of copper while a battery-powered EV contains something like 80kgs. A fully electrical bus on the other hand contains a whopping 400 kgs of copper! With the rapidly increasing adoption of electric vehicles, copper will be an essential material for the coming electrification of all forms of ground transport and major driver of world copper use."
You realistically need a garage to have an ev for the charger. Apartment dwellers and renters are out of luck. Teslas for rich people will not solve reliance on fossil fuels. Heating homes never even discussed. Evs also have much more limited range in the cold.
There's a Buck-ee's here where I live that's about 1/2 way between Dallas and Houston on I-45. When you go in there on a Holiday Weekend, ALL 24 of the Tesla Only SuperCharging Stations are full with dozens waiting to get in. There are also 8 Non-Tesla chargers behind the Shell Station and 8 Non Tesla chargers at the Walmart. Needless to say, if your EV runs down, you MIGHT be sitting a while to get it charged on the weekend/holiday/hurricane evacuation/etc.
You are right there are not enough chargers today for every car to be an EV. But why would you want that today? Here In the uk in 2024 there are 1.1 million EVs and 66,000 public charging points. More than enough for the current EV fleet, the public chargers get an average of 90 minutes use per day. Why build more now? when you remember that 80% of charging is done at home and most of that over night.
Vehicles were already money pits; now its much worse with EVs what with high depreciation and inability to repair them. Because the battery packs are a single unit and not repairable, the life of the vehicle is how long the battery pack lasts, because they cannot be repaired or replaced in a cost effective way. Why should buyers shoulder this high price, with a limited life of the vehicle. Compare to an ICE vehicle where you can replace components in a cost effective way, and even the engine from a doner vehicle if it completely fails. I will stick with old ice vehicles and keep my money in the bank!
One day in the not too distant future, everyone will be in autonomous flying vehicles and nobody will ever crash, when AI realises healthy humans make good batteries. 🤔😂
What a piss poor video, poorly researched and a promotion by ICE industry. For those that do not know, there will be 17MILLION electric vehicles sold this year!
There is not enough electricity to power EVs and keep the Internet running. Wonder who will win that battle? (PSST: Don't let EV fanboys see this video)
Meanwhile, from the real world: "As of July 17, 2024, electric vehicle (EV) sales in the United States were growing in 2024, with a 22.9% increase from the first quarter to the second quarter and an 11.3% increase year-over-year. In the second quarter, 330,463 fully-electric vehicles were sold, which was a record high volume"..............and............"In 2024, electric car sales in the United States are projected to rise by 20% compared to the previous year, translating to almost half a million more sales, relative to 2023. Despite reporting of a rocky end to 2023 for electric cars in the United States, sales shares are projected to remain robust in 2024." And BTW, autos are a *global* market and with the largest market in the world (China) eclipsing the 50% mark for % of new car sales being EVs (along with other countries), if you don't know how to make an EV, you are toast. So you EV haters keep on bad-mouthing stuff and putting us on the outside looking in and costing us $$ and jobs just like you have done in the past.

@@Support_Ad_Blocker Legacy auto (Ford, GM etc) is not abandoning, they just cant make them profitable so they need to slow down the manufacturing or they go out of business. They are hoping someone else, like Tesla, will build out the charging network, supply chain etc. first to bring down costs for them.
@@Support_Ad_Blocker This is only true or legacy autos since they cant make profitable EVs. Tesla is making more money on their EVs than legacy is on their ICE cars.
A big turn around will be when charge range goes beyond 500miles. This will happen when they start putting solid state batteries into EV's where they are half the weight. If they can get a 1000 mile range, then it will be a no brainer to get one over an ICE. You'll start seeing solid state batteries in about 5 years in EV's. In 20 years, the opinions will flight against ICE engines at that point as gas stations start becoming more scarce.
