I'm Done with Electric Cars! Going back to Combustion Power - Here's Why! 

I'm waiting ✋ for them to run on Duracell batteries 🔋. This way you just bring spares or stop at local grocery store. 😶

Sometimes in the cold, it's difficult for the house power to keep the battery warm enough to charge: it's basically like connecting a 3kW electric fire up and placing it outside.

Some electric cars are even known for catching on fire when charging. So the manufacturers recommend not to charge to 100% and not to leave it in your garage so it doesn't catch the house on fire.

@@Midala87 I personally have never seen an electric car on fire but have seen some gigantic fires of gasoline power cars.

@@martyk1156 Just look it up online. Electric car fires are supper intense, and fire departments have no effective way to extinguish them.

@@mikelp72 in comparison to the number of gasoline powered car fires , electric vehicle fires are pretty rare.

@@Midala87 , "So the manufacturers recommend not to charge to 100% and not to leave it in your garage so it doesn't catch the house on fire." Is a misunderstanding of the intent. No properly designed battery should just burst into flames from the user charging to 100%. They have charging protection ICs (integrated circuits) to control this. Literally, the logic will not let you overcharge. Rather, while not a big deal, it's needless to charge to 100% if it's just going to sit there. It's like filling up your car with high ethanol fuel and just letting it sit there. Hence, a lot of EVs have charging schedulers if you really want to maximize the life of the battery, aka, charge to full an hour before I normally go to work...etc.

Yes, they can get $20 of copper from one cable but it costs $1,000 to replace it. EVs sound more like a worse idea every day.

​@ojaschandegave not sure what you mean. I just switched to EV and find it so much easier, quieter, and fun. Instant accelerate and regenerative drag (which slows you down when not pushing pedal) means that you have much better response in both pick up and slow down.

@@terryofford4977 his video is stupid because he didn't use plugshare to check station status before going. Also, your jaguar total cost of ownership is 4x a used $4k EV.

In our area, a survey was conducted regarding the travel times affected by the waiting at recharging stations. In general, a four hour trip takes between eight and nine hours due to long waits at charging stations. On the other hand, departing on a four hour trip with a fully-charged battery should get you to your destination without having to charge up along the way, but many EV owners fail to do that and still think an EV is no different than an ICE car.

Waiting isn’t really a problem, it’s not having the infrastructure that makes it hard to drive across long distances. - A Tesla owner.

@@saurabhsonic Ooohhh, I would love that!!! Thanks for the vision!!!

Another problem with this push to go green with everything is how much extra time is needed to get things done. If your day isn't carefully planned you will have a bad day. What about the construction industry and farming industry where time means everything?? The longer it takes to get a job done the more money it will cost. That will be a big problem in the coming years.

I agree. It's an adjustment, but will improve in 10 years.

@@JessSkubi It will improve in 10 years obviously doesn't equate to, "it will be as readily available as gasoline in 10 years"

Not too long ago, someone parked their model 3 next to my car, so I had the opportunity to check if those panel gaps stories are true. Not only they're true, it's actually shocking, nothing lined up. The horizontal window line between the front and back door had a 1cm misalignment, some other gaps were 2mm on one end, and 7-8mm on the other hand. Quality Control, you say? I would have probably lost the job within seeing the first car in the factory, pointing at all the problems and questioning why isn't the car sent back in to the assembly line. Would not buy one, not even considering how they run a monopoly on car parts unavailability and right to repair at indepednet garages.

Assembly line work is brutal. They work the crap out of their employees too, I used to work down the street from their Fremont factory, we would hire former employees sometimes and had a bunch of guys that used to work there when GM and Toyota operated the factory under NUMMI. They didn’t want to work for Tesla of course since it was anti union, it’s decent money for a kid but I wouldn’t imagine many people work there for long.

Green tech is only going to get better we have some of the smartest people in the world making breakthroughs all the time, gas and the combustion engine hasn't made any significant breakthroughs in a long time. It got us to where we are now but I think it's time to leave it in the past.

@@sakidickerson Why do you call the tech 'green', though, when carbon dioxide is literally what plants breathe, and the more CO2, the faster and larger plants grow?

Seems about right smh

It’s nothing new. It’s not an electric/Tesla thing. My 2002 BMW does exactly the same thing. The windows automatically roll down a fraction when the door is opened and when you get in you hear it roll up again and seal. If the car’s battery is flat it doesn’t work and you hear the window bang in to the trim when closing and grab at the trim when opening.

The button for the door is the default way of opening the car. The handle release is designed for emergencies when the vehicle doesn't have power, or you've been in a crash. The warning it gives you for the damage to the trim is because the windows rolled up tuck under the trim; the manual release doesn't automatically roll the window down slightly to get out.

Everything is computer controlled because THAT enables remote operation by government players. Can you imagine the glee of some narcissistic, controlling, sadistic public employee whe can lock you out of your glove box on a whim? Boggles the imagination doesn't it?

@@jbrenton134 Still unnecessary aggravation.

I have never been in a queue yet. Teslas supercharge extremely fast and they then fine you if you overstay on the charger, making sure it is available right away for the next person. I admit there is a problem with the myriad types of other public chargers which are not so well organised.

@@XenonJohnD there is not much Teslas on the road for now.. they probably built for future.. we will see what happens. Here nearby they built i think 6 and it is always empty.. and i mean all 6 empty:) don’t think this is a good business model so probably won’t stay that way. Even on petrol stations there comes a moment everything is full. It will be the same with EVs imo, but u will wait considerably longer. They will probably charge u more during some hours etc to mitigate that.. But i can imagine going on vacation when everyone else is going, wanting to charge and few car are before me.. that would be a pain:) prices might get very high in situation like that i would imagine - and btw i think that is correct response..

Last time I waited in queue to fuel my car was 1976, when was yours Teslaman!

Not to mention that the charging stop was just to demonstrate the issue. The car still had plenty of range left. He could have driven it all the way back to the starting point with no need for a charge. Most EV owners charge their cars at home and will only occasionally need to visit a public charging station. The scenario with the girlfriend is total BS unless the two of you are going on a long road trip. (Maybe in the Honda e it would only take a medium road trip.) The primary message I got from this video is that the charging network in Ireland needs work.

I just think they like making things without going through every future issue first then wasting other peoples hard earn scraps in the process.

Or how to unlock the door if your cars battery dies.

@@stenobabe1976 You pull the emergency handle on the inside (if you ever get in one it's the thing that looks like a door handle). All the electric bits are powered by the normal 12V battery every car has (now 16V in a Tesla but same thing basically). If the camera fails it'll be like any other car on the road with a camera. That's not just Teslas you know?

Ha, any modern cars with frameless doors have these. It's to allow the window to drop 1cm as you open the door.

@@jakecoventry9004 I think EV’s are great and I’m considering getting one just for the fact that they are way cheaper per mile than combustion vehicles however they still have some serious short comings. In an emergency situation caused by a natural disaster being unable to charge the vehicle when you need it the most is a potentially dangerous big problem. Another problem is loss of range that occurs during very cold weather. And the biggest most glaring problem with EV’s are all the issues surrounding the current process of manufacturing the batteries which requires environment destroying strip mining operations all over the world which consume copious amounts of fossil fuel, more fossil fuel to ship this raw ore to another continent where it takes more fossil fuel to refine it in a process that produces tons of toxic waste, and yet even more fossil fuel to manufacture the batteries and all the other components of the vehicles. Eventually this same EV technology will be upscaled and used to power ships, excavators, semi trucks, etc which will hopefully eliminate the need for the burning any fossil fuels during the entire manufacturing process but until that happens EV technology isn’t really helping the overall environment very much if at all.

The same as would happen if you were driving an ICE vehicle with low fuel. You won't be able to get any fuel. Fuel pumps, electricity?

@@mattsmith1137 Most of these myths have been debunked. Obviously there are concerns with battery production, but we use a lot if fossil fuels to extract and refine and transport petrol and diesel too. You will love it when you get one. Like with any emerging technology there will be some issues, plus we have big oil who are not happy bunnies, so there’s going to be a whole lot of misinformation out there.

@@jakecoventry9004 Higher than that. In Canada, after every snow storm or even a good wind gust.

What’s your idea of a “normal” car and what’s so overly fancy about the tesla? Anything you buy these days is going to have electronics in it.

Thankfully most do, just Tesla which are garbage.

It’s because adapted ice cars are not adapted for evs which will mean less interior space, raised passenger seats and poor energy efficiency.

@@jackjoyce1744 Ecactly. Traditional cars look the way they do because the manufacturer needs to package a certain type of drivetrain in them and everyone has come to the same conclusion about what the most cost effective drivetrain is and how to package it.

Dacia Spring? Nissan LEAF? Hyundai Kona? Kia Niro? Renault Zoe? VW ID3? VW E-UP? There are actually quite a few.

I got a 2015 Chevy Spark EV for 50 mile round trip commute through LA. In 7 years, I replaced tires and the 12V start battery which died a month after its five year rating said it would. No repairs, No smog, no oil, no brakes so far after 58000 miles although they are getting close now, and very cheap to own so far. I charge at home and have never charged anywhere else. I still need ICE vehicle for long range but for the daily short commute I don't know if I could bought a more efficient vehicle

Keep in mind the metals that are used to make the rechargeable batteries in EVs have to be mined. Which actually cause a lot more environmental damage compared to O&G operations. And EVs lack the power to be reliable in the country and in winter. Things that as an Albertan living in rural Alberta is more than happy to remind you city folks of.

@@ResidentWeevil2077 Agreed. Saltwater batteries will eventually replace lithium if allowed by TPTB. I have worked with salt water batteries. They are real and being improved rapidly. Lithium may be like 8-track cassettes. A transitional phenomena. Battery powered vehicles with sustainable batteries are the future. This is the selected future despite the flaws they represent. Electric vehicles lower maintainence needs and less moving parts are a huge advantage to greater sustainability than ICE cars.

@@edwardruiz8920 while I agree with you (and would definitely ditch my regular ICE vehicle), EVs are impractical in rural areas. And you seem to ignore the glaring issue of EVs losing efficiency in cold climates.

@@ResidentWeevil2077 Disagree with rural areas issue but do agree with the cold climate issues. There is no intention to solve them either. This will make car ownership more problematic and expensive. The environmental plan ahead is too thin out the rural areas, do away with car ownership, and decentralize the grid. It is already happening. I've worked on planning teams and watched the prototype batteries get installed to test designs in urban areas. Sempra Energy and others are committed to this already. By 2030 in California, there will be no more ICE passenger vehicles sold. It is already state law. As California goes... The other states lag behind but eventually all fall to its influence. Arizona is about to become East California over the next 10 years.

Got a Tesla... it's better.

For you, clearly it works. But your savings will only be truly revealed when you decide to sell your used vehicle. When ALL the costs are included I have yet to see any figures that demonstrate that the savings are anything but marginal, if that. If you had purchased an ICE and were told after you had filled up you had to go and park your car somewhere for up to an hour or more before you could drive away you would have considered that insanity. If you put a monetary value on your time it is insanity. But for EV apologists there are hundreds of reasons why this is rational.

This is the problem with reducing everything to economics. The cheapest thing to do is pretty much always the worst choice.

Until you’re in a minor accident…

Maybe if you’re broke and in denial

@@matthewdriver334 And how do you think their numbers will look when they’re no longer the only game in town? All the major automakers are entering the full EV space as of the 2023 model year. Tesla’s days are numbered. Their model is premised on the profit margins made possible by being an effective monopoly. Once the majors are involved and selling at lower margins and at all price points Tesla won’t be growing. At least not at the rates you’re suggesting.

The bulk of buyers will play into the comate hysteria and think they're doing the right think by "transitioning" to renewable energy. Look at ebay motors and see how many people are trying to get rid of Teslas, some with sort term ownership and low mileage.

Exactly !!!

I have not been to a gas station in over a year. The idea that I spend more time waiting to 'fuel' my car than people with ICE cars is false. You spend much more time fueling your vehicle than I do. Orders of magnitude more. The ICE is less convenient for my situation. Not going to be that way for everyone though. Having the home charger is the key.

@@Gauge213666 ”…because I say so”

@@FinnGamble #1 the idea is to HAVE A CAR. That means taking trips when one wishes to. Spending a couple hours a day at charging stations is grossly impractical. And Michael is right: EV is VERY dirty energy. The mining of the rare earth minerals to make the batteries and the toxic nightmare of disposing them makes nuclear waste seem tame.

@@Gauge213666 This is false and I assume you're referring to the political propaganda that the car, battery production, and electricity production and waste is the same if not more than ICE if compared in whole so the whole idea of EV is moot when it comes to solving pollution issue? If that's the case, then yes, that point is true. However, you and other anti-EV crowd are missing the point. The push for EV globalization were meant to centralize the issue of the pollution. You can solve an issue when the problem's centralized in one place much much easier than solving millions of different individual cars making their own contributions to pollute the earth.

Exactly!

It’s like buying packaged meat at the grocery store. Nobody sees what goes on in the background. Just pretty packaging.

The most uneducated comment award goes to you Takes a simple Google search to understand how much more efficient the EV is in utilising power vs ICE engine burning the same tank of petrol ..makes a massive difference to carbon output even with the EV battery having an initially higher carbon output during production And that's without even considering how quickly charging network's are already shifting to renewable sources..it's happening so fast thanks to the availability of EVs to balance the grid

Public transit is the true efficiency

@@TheWizardGamez yep…I just love getting stuck behind those buses and sucking in all that exhaust. Doesn’t really solve the problem. Hoping we can do better.

thats cause your comparing apples to oranges. If ICE cars use the same evergy a EV car uses to get to its destination then their range would only be 180kms. Their tanks are way bigger then an EV so they can store more fuel and subsuquently more energy to go from point A to point B

Try a Lucid Air, you can get around 800 km in my experience on a single charge.
