Automakers Have Painted Themselves In A Corner

- EVs promise eco-friendliness, and from extensive mining for batteries to a shortage of mechanics, we discover challenges abound. Premature disposal and high repair costs raise concerns. Addressing these issues demands holistic solutions for sustainable transportation. But unless affordability is rife all around, consumers, in the end, have the final say.

This was a great video full of common sense and facts
The issue isn't merely the highly optiimstic 2035 timeline:
- the demand isn't there causing falling sales
- sales are falling because infrastructure is spotty, unreliable and inconvenient
- Their isn't enough energy to replace every ICE vehicle and supply electricity to everything else.
Current EV technology is a bad deal.
None of that is true.
Actually it is. To go full EV in passenger cars and long haul trucks would require a doubling of electrical generation and transmission which would cost trillions.
Just for America to convert their trucks to EV would require a 40% increase in electricity generation and transmission and would require the entire output of the world's key minerals for 25 to 30 years. Then 6.2 years later they'd have to start all over again because the batteries would be spend. Governments are stupid but they're not that stupid. This must be a scheme to get US out of cars all together. That the majority are inti it is beyond belief. Better to keep getting your booster so you won't need a car. You won't even need oxygen.
If governments weren't pushing EV's the market would corrected itself years ago.
Wonder what would have happened when if the government didn’t push bailouts in 09
Competition is good.
if Norway, are able to switch to almost all EVs, there's no reason Canada cannot do the same.. the weather, infra, businesses, are virtually the same.. except that Norwegians are more pragmatic, i supposed..
meh let the chinese carmaker sell car in NA and introduce competition to bring down the prices , if a bunch of 15-20k car are on sales instead of stupid price point they are now people will switch in a heartbeat, keeping protectionism policies to keep big 3 on life support is not going to fix the problem that they are shitty at making car now and don't want to invest anything that isn't specifically made to generate more maintenance cost for the buyers. actually for a better transition they need to ban hybrids first not gas to make it clear that those maintenance hogs overcomplicated pieces of crap are not the future. and ya simple way to phase out gas is pretty simple just completely ban the installation and replacement of gas station tanks. once people can't buy gas ain't going to be anything they can do.
Chinese cars are made with electricity generated with coal. And will you be happy when that Chinese car burns down your building? If you think Teslas are flammable you ain't seen nothing yet. These things burn thousands of degrees hotter then needed to melt steel.
And where are we going to find the Electricity Fairy to provide the electricity. Ontario has a critical low shortage of electricity as is. I expect temporary plant closing to be far higher this year than last. I'll bet you didn't even know they were happening.
And did you do the research to find that EVs have a life cycle CO2 output that exceeds ICE cars? Or that wind turbine and photovoltaic power facilities need to have 100% redundancy for when it's dark and the wind isn't blowing?
That 46% of Canadians are still interested in EVs shows how foolish this nation has become. This is basic thermodynamics. It's a branch of science that actually knows what they're talking about and yet we ignore the truth to hold onto our hopium. And the rest of the world continues on laughing at us fools.
6:45 gas prices are too high so can’t afford an EV? Did she mean natural gas for heating? Gonna give her benefit of the doubt.
I think the survey percentage going down is correlated to people buying EV's. as more people buy EV's the people left are going to be less likely to want EV's. Almost 30% of people here in BC are buying EV's.
Plugin hybrid are a bad design. we own one(outlander PHEV) and id never buy one again. it has now two systems to break. As a redseal partsman and seeing all the costs associated with gas and the tiny amount for EV id only ever buy full EV. I currently have a used Hyundai Ioniq and i love it. $4 to fill it up and zero repairs
Where's BC going to get the electricity? Nuclear? The day BC builds nuclear plants is the day to head for the hills. BC: home of the Vancouver Stock Exchange and the most over the top Covid response on earth. Is your chief medical officer still having a mental breakdown on TV each day? Lol.
@@bunsw2070 we get our power from Hydro electric dams. Anothe giant one is going live this fall. also many many people are adding solar panels to their homes.
Wish everyone on earth took covid as series as she did. we could have eliminated it but now its here forever like the flu... thanks dumbasses
Awesome that guy saved 15k. He should sell that POS and put the saved money towards a new vehicle
Funny how nobody wants to talk about the Recycling of the battery anymore.
Could it be that these cars are far less 'green' than we are told?
They can't be recycled. Only a very small portion of their elements are recoverable and only at great cost in machinery, energy and waste.
@@bunsw2070 That is the problem. Recycling is not lucrative. So children in Africa will not be unemployed in the future....
It's got nothing to do with lucrative. It's not physically possible.
what accent is that? 🤔
The 2035 EV target is just as unrealistic as the prior 2030 target.
You're right, we will reach that target before 2030.
Come back and tell me about it in 2031. Until then...
LOL!
Simple Buy an PHEV
