- EVs Makers Are BROKE And The Market Is SCREAMING IT! The EV market is in chaos! EV makers are struggling to stay afloat, and the signs are clear: the industry is on the brink of disaster. There are so many questions about the EVs these days. EV market is collapsing month by month, the EV situation deteriorates, setting the EV makers for what could be the most significant automotive crash witnessed thus far. With rising costs, falling demand, and intense competition, the electric vehicle dream is turning into a nightmare. Once celebrated as the beacon of future mobility and a key to combating climate change, the EV industry now grapples with severe and unforeseen challenges. But what's behind this sudden EV collapse? Join us as we dive into the shocking truth about the EV industry financial crisis.

😊 Hey guys! We created the Chase Car channel to give viewers a broad overview of the upcoming new cars from the top car manufacturers. We are huge fans of pickup trucks of all sizes: compact, mid-size and full-size trucks. So mostly, we will cover new upcoming trucks, but besides that, here you can find a lot of content about new sedans and SUVs too.
The Electric Vehicle wave sooner or later will become huge, so this type of content might appear on this channel from time to time. But as we are still on the way to becoming fully electrical, we mostly cover fossil cars from many amazing brands.

🔴Do you think EV market crisis is temporary or permanent ?🤔
🏆The Truth About Falling EV Sales WATCH HERE 👉 czcams.com/video/5uxnEGEtNk4/video.html
LOL and the USA sent people around the world to the hospital faster as current one people breath in 27 billion ton of CO2 every day.
Permanent. US doesn't have the energy to power EVs
temporary.
You have underestimated the attempt by Government to destroy our economy and Republic! TPTB are on the ropes…but that is a very dangerous place to be! Buckle Up!
@marktevault57 ExxonMobil interest on money is above American and the world health.
Every day, each person breaths in 27 billion ton CO2.
Just watched a video testing the range of the Ford Lighting with an RV in tow. They drive 10 miles on city streets before hitting the highway. Drove the posted speed limit of 70 mph..... They only made it 85 miles before it ran out of juice. Time to recharge, 1 hr 20 minutes and that's on a fast charger ..... What an effing joke
And worse, there is no benefit to the environment as claimed, considering everything from cradle to grave of EVs...
In 10 minutes you can fully fuel a class 8 semi on Hydrogen. Also have a range of 500 miles at the same cargo weight as a diesel truck.
The people who bought EVs can't afford it so the Democrats are raising the electricity for poor people to pay for their electric car
Charger in a fast charger us mire expensive than gas. Not even counting your time wasted.
hahahahahaja my 72 F100 will go way longer than that piece of junk
What a risk sitting on almost ton of explosive batteries. No brainer!
Chinese cars famous for this. Show me a Tesla on fire.
@@donaldkasper8346 LOL and the USA sent people around the world to the hospital faster as current one people breath in 27 billion ton of CO2 every day.
@@donaldkasper8346You must be joking.Nothing like an EVangelist to ask such a fatuous question
Yeah it's so much safer sitting on 20 gallons of highly flammable gasoline.
Be well...
Also last year there were 174000 car fires just in the US. Out of that only 20 were electric.
Be well...
sell your ev NOW..its over folks
They might as well keep them, because few people want a used EV.
Who would buy one?
Growth isnt slowing as much as the media portrays
Sell your electric vehicle? There's no resale value market for those things it's just like a flashlight in your battery back in the 70s going dead you just throw out the batteries you don't resell them.
@@Quappers yeah, that's why the makers are scaling back plans. Even Ford screwed the pooch on this one.
I would never dare park one of these things in the house garage
I don't even park near these things in public parking places.
@@andyr8812 I'm the same way, I avoid them, the owners are just as explosive as the cars.
Zero reason to by an ev. What a pain to save a few bucks on gas. But considering the price of EV’s, you’re probably spending more money a month.
Vehicle depreciation is a 'running cost' - but EVangelists do not agree... it fouls their sums up.
Except of course just a few tiny details like no cancer gas out of the tailpipe, comfortable and quiet drive, better crash safety, having a comfortable temperature inside even before I get in, access to electricity to cook, light, charge my notebook or phone anywhere I drive, backup power for the house, ability to keep constant temperature when sleeping inside, not getting my dog cooked inside during summer and other irrelevant details nobody cares about :-)
Want to know why car prices got so much more expensive? This is a big part of the reason. Everyone buying a car is subsidizing this EV disaster.
More expensive? Imagine ICE cars without japanese.
Nope. The high prices were introduced by the dealers, not the makers.
@MSDGroup-ez6zk Before the Japanese, American cars had better build quality , built tougher and were very affordable. Now they have everything the Japanese cars does but built like crap and out of cheap materials and charge a premium. American cars used to have engines that would last 30 40 50 years. Didn't have to worry about a sensor going bad and everything was rebuildable, adjustable, and refurbishable. 80% of the vehicle was metal. Oh I'm sorry it's safer if a trash can has the possibility to total your car and we're going to charge more for that opportunity. What happened to the days of being able to jack up the car by its bumper? Oh yea that's right, Japanese cars had plastic bumpers that were plastic and looked sleeker so American car makers copied them. American cars used to have stainless trim but they had to follow the Japanese with stick on plastic trim. I can go on
@@ether_sectEasily said, but is it true? If you were Ford Motor Co. and you were loosing $36k per vehicle the fault of high prices appears to be shared.
yep they know this nonsense is costing more, the money got to come from somewhere
In order to even touch a GM EV at a dealership you have to go through over 100 hours of training, this includes computer training classes and then flying around to one of four training centers in US that have hands on training for EVs, after all that, you get no raise and then forced to work at half time warranty time cause your the only trained EV tech in the building. Most of us older techs refuse to go through all that headache for less money paid on very specialized work. Now try telling the newer kids coming into the industry that in order to touch an EV you have to go through huge amounts of training, no raise, then half labor time cause it's all warranty. They don't want to do it either. So remember not only are EVs more expensive, but you will find more and more places that can't even touch them due to no trained techs. Which will drive the cost of maintenance even higher cause it's such a niche market for techs.
Use to sell Mitsubishi's and had a couple of iMievs on the lot. Unlike modern EVs, we had next to no training on it as it was just super basic. Even with that, they never sold and were just used to drive between a couple of dealer lots. EVs are generally just too expensive and usually offer less on some levels to their ICE counterparts.
No matter how much the government demands it, the market they want for EVs does not exist and likely never will. Especially when they need massive tax incentives to even sell them at all. EVs in general as just a very expensive, more complex solution to a problem that does not exist.
@@goufr3540 Not really, you only spend 1% of EV spendings. The most expensive EV is still cheaper than Lamborgini, Ferrari, Rolls Royce etc.
@@MSDGroup-ez6zk I have seen people run the numbers and an EV can be very costly, even with minimal damage. Does not help that they very quickly lose their value to, and a used EV is a very very questionable purchase.
@@MSDGroup-ez6zk Compare a crap car to Supercars or Super luxury car? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL
Anybody that wanted an EV bought one. Now that is clear on the actual cost of these things, hardly anybody is going to buy one. EVs where a massively STUPID undertaking.
Yeah. That’s what the horse was saying about the automobile. You are absolutely incorrect and this video is completely incorrect. EVs still have a future and millions more will be sold world wide.
You meant anyone who could. afford. one bought one.
@@keithgilbert835 the horses were saying that.....? 🤦
@@keithgilbert835only reason they’d be sold is because they will outlaw the sale of combustion engines. This is all a forced transition to EV that nobody wants
@@keithgilbert835 Dream on...The technology is not mature enough, the infrastructure is not able to cope with the influx of millions of units on the grid...etc. Besides that, EVs are much worse for the environment and much more costly all the way around.
EV's are not the future.
EV= Edsel Vehicle

The sooner these battery vehicle manufacturers go out of business, the better it is for the country and the entire planet!
yep...our planet is dying for more exhaust. Its good for our lungs!
@@garyssimo
Well, don't be a hypocrite then - you need to start makinig your own consumer items and growing your own food if you are that concnerned about fossil fuels! Fossil fuels power everything on this planet.
Anyone that wanted to buy a EV has already done so..They are finding out quickly what a mess they are....
Its obvious in a financial crisis no one is going to pay a third more when every penny counts
Guess why car insurance goes up?
Answer: EV:s!
Most people can't afford to buy/own a home to charge a plug-in vehicle. No one wants to rely solely upon remote charging stations & all the various problems/hassles/expenses associated with it.
My city leaders edicted that government subsidized charging stations be built in the hood, so that locals could prey on suits charging their dumb $50k purchases for 40 minutes in 90 degree weather while surrounded by broke thugs. Great plan.😅 At least the charging cable won't be cut because the victims are needed.
@@davidhopper7295 still cheaper than the most expensive ICE cars such as Rolls Royce.
@@MSDGroup-ez6zkwhy do u use rolls royce as an example? A car that starts at almost $500k😅
Why not use the global best selling ICE/H as an example, the toyota corolla? A car that hovers at the mid$20k.
@arsyadidris6349 of course because people said EV is expensive, but actually, compared to Rolls Royce, the EV is cheap.
When the ICE cars were introduced, they were higher than others. So does EV.
@@MSDGroup-ez6zk rolls make BEVs too, ma dude.. the Spectre.
But ur right though. New tech is always expensive.
The ecolunacy is coming up against the laws of physics😂
People find out EVs don’t hold on to their market value.
2 year old Long Range Teslas now being sold for less than $20,000 US.
Why is it that we all know that electric vehicles are a big scam yet the car companies fell for it?
Because they are being forced to doing it. E.g. they pay fines if they don't sell some of this dog crap
The EV drivers also had the covid 'vaccine'😂
This is what happens when the government forces somebody to buy something that they don't want.
No body was forced to buy them . Idiots were brainwashed into buying them..
EV's have the same drawbacks today as when auto companies tried to make them 100 years ago. They're still just novelty cars for the wealthy and techy people and not for the mass market.
Only people with more money than brains, would buy an EV car or truck
Yeah, I bought a 1 year old Chevy Bolt with 20k miles for 16 grand and has a 4 grand tax credit. You've gotta be rich to afford that and 5 bucks to fully charge it. I think there is a reason EV owners are over 3 times more likely to have at least an undergrad degree.
Governments and auto makers were behaving as Dilithium Crystals where discovered as a power source and us peasants can't wait to buy one. They are just big inefficient batteries and batteries have always sucked since batteries were first made.
Makes perfect sense to buy a car that when the computer or battery fails the doors won't open. Nice when the batteries are on fire and you are inside. N I C E !
Tesla cars have a manual door opening mechanism on the front doors that works if the electrics fail. N I C E !
This is what happens when the goverment get involved.
The level of complexity in these EVs is mind blowing. There's no reason for popout door handles (deal breaker for me), everything on the touch screen, etc. Put the hi-tech where it's required, but get it back to where it drives like an analog. They were building electric cars 120 years ago and they did fine. K.I.S.S. 😅
Exactly! EV's have too much unnecessary tech, too much complexity. There is no need to use an electrical system when a simpler mechanical system works well, eg pop-out door handles.
Spot on.Also,why has a car that had 150bhp,when petrol,suddenly become 250bhp when electric?.Less power,more range,would seem sensible.
@@freeman10000 seriously? Have you seen Mercedes? High tech and expensive when it is broken.
@@keithhooper6123it boils down to power-to-weight ratio, and BEVs are just heavier.
Lets take an F150. The lightest F150 lightning is 300lb HEAVIER thant the heaviest ICE F150. And F150 arent very light to begin with. Even a hybrid Rav4 is around 200lb heavier than its all-ICE counterpart.
That permanent added weight needs the extra power just so it could perform as well as its ICE counterpart. But more power means bigger battery to maintain range… which means more weight. crap. Catch22😅
But apart form that? Yeah man, i agree. Why dont they offer a spartan trim for these BEVs? Coz these idiots are greedy and out of touch
Complexity? How do you measure that? If it's on the basis of, "how many buttons, levers, and knobs are there in this thing?", there's no contest between the simplicity of a Tesla's controls and the baroque gadgetry of a typical car. As for there being "no reason" for it: wrong again. Things that don't exist can't break. Also, features controlled through the touchscreen can be added via OTA software update, whereas regular vehicles' features are pretty much frozen at time of manufacture. "But what if the touchscreen fails?" Yeah, that's a problem. Most of the features are also controllable via voice commands, though, so there's a backup workaround to use while waiting for the touchscreen to be repaired.
The cost of all the expensive virtue-signalling has still to fully impact national economies.
They`ve run out of idiots to sell them to!
you wouldnt want to buy an ev from a new small brand because if they go bust you wont be able to get parts.
In Australia. I did an insurance check.
ICE VS EV. Tesla model 3 both 2 years old, both $62,000 value.
Minimum EXCESS selected. 30 years old male driver.
PREMIUM /EXCESS
ICE $2031 / $750
EV $2870 / $1325
S0 $800 py higher premium and higher minimum EXCESS.
Expensive stupidity.
Companies that make electric cars are pretty damn stupid; all the history books proclaim that the USA gave up on electric cars over 120 years ago, yet still actually considered making them now. That is like a wagon-maker going into business, when the country gave up on them over 120 years ago, too. Electric cars and horse-drawn wagons both ended their run at the same time, over 120 years ago. 120 YEARS AGO!
Why would anyone buy a used EV? 😂
Cause it was $17,800, looked new, goes 259 miles on a charge, ok had 67,000 miles and been in minor fender bender all repaired.
I love my 2017 Bolt Premier!! and so do thousands in our Bolt owners club. Thats why!
The manufactures, engineers must have known the major issues and ignored them. Battery technology needed does not exist. Electricity is not available, charging station are no available. A lost cause from the start a FJB , democrat idea.
Let’s not forget that gasoline car sales are down 3 million cars per year in the United States since 2019.
So, sales collapse looks worse for gasoline cars. Regardless, many of the EV makers are struggling.
Guess Rivian's large tract of land, purchased for a new plant, near Social Circle, Georgia, will be sold soon.
The traditional car companies need to sue the EPA, in a landmark case that will expose the AGW fraud once and for all... unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats have no right to arbitrarily impose rules, mandates, and punitive fines to destroy commerce and free enterprise.
It's simple. EVs don't do what most vehicle buyers want a vehicle to do, and despite all the hype it's very difficult to see how that is going to change any time soon.
sell it ? thats stupid.. its worthless.. only worth anything to the current owner.. bought it stick with it
0% on Tesla pretty much tells you where they stand.
I have driven two EVs and have zero interest. The cost of charging saves you nothing, so there is no real up side.
Very true I rented one once just too see if I like them but half a hr to charge plus it wasn't really cheaper then fuel.
The perfect situation for a BEV owner is they have two cars. A hybrid and a BEV. BEV for the daily grind, hybris for the weekend/holiday long drives.
They also would want a landed unit for easy homecharging. And electricity must be cheap enough per kwh to justify. Would also be great if solar panels were installed…
And how many people actly fit this description? Not very many😅. And most of them already bought their BEVs by this point.
Coz there are several cases (in comment sections of various socmed platforms atleast) where the BEV owner also owns a stonkin’ fullsize pickup with a giant V8, or some other highpowered gas guzzling monstrosity…
These folks essentially bought their BEVs so they dont have to drive their prized ICE chariots more than neccesary. Its a win-win for these guys.
Plus the fact that charging stations are a popular spot for criminals to wait for their prey to show up..like a watering hole on the Serengeti.
@@sandraheilman2543 people keep saying… “oh they wont steal the cable, its like any other copper”, or “they cant steal the car, itll be remotely locked out”
.
.
Ok, so what about u as the driver? Ur definitely worth robbing😅
Higher insurance, Higher initial costs, parts availability and higher costs, extra cost to electrify home to charge them, higher tire costs, batteries last about 10-15 years then you are out $15K and up, way up!! NOPE!!!
You can own a Bolt EV for 18k brand new in California. 😘
Not a problem. It will just take billions upon billions in subsidies to make this magic, world-saving technology magically become desirable.
Once every car is subsidized to the tune of about $40k, they'll become affordable!
Starry eyed EV buyers find they can’t sell their vehicles when they come to regret their purchase. The original franchise won’t buy them back, when they have an overflowing back lot of unsold cars. The same for independent used car dealers, possibly for an absurdly high loss to the original buyer.
Green Hydrogen has hit $2/kg which means the cost to charge an EV is more than the cost to fill a H2 vehicle. Toyota's decision to focus on h2 is going to pay off big time.
Unlikely, there's no progress on infrastructure.
The only thing keeping tesla afloat is the carbon fine money they get from other companies who are not making 'enough EV' ( in the opinion of the government ).
BUT, EVs have definitely the best heating system. ~2500°C - in mere seconds ☝
Two things not covered. 1. Increasing number of parking restriction. 2. State and local taxes. Anything with battery packs are super heavy and an increase on the wear to roads.
FJB, F EPA.
German and other European car makers also better adjust there objectives,and pressure their gouvernement to slow down the transition.
There ya go. Start a company with an unsellable product that depends exclusively on donations from other companies and the government.
What could go wrong??!?
People will only buy 1 then they take it back 4 years later and it’s worth nothing .
Look at any rechargeable device they’re all throw away item same with EVs
Why don't car makers just start ignoring the government's forced MPG ratings. Simply stop giving in to unreasonable demands.
So, Elon Musk is "broke"?? Wouldn't we all like to be that "broke"! 😂
Musk is smarter than that. He knows what he is doing; Fooling the leftist globalists and getting rich with that.
He can't be to smart, he produced the cyber urinal😏
Go Woke, Go Broke
These manufacturers made the mistake of conflating government mandates with genuine consumer desire. However, that said, it seems the Chinese are able to supply EVs at a much lower price which probably soaks up what demand still exists.
I am one who could actually use an EV. Nothing great or even fast. I drive 2 miles a couple of times a week, to get a rack of beers, and I bet I could do it even with old batteries. But alas anything EV is bumped up a billion percent. Oh and food, I do buy food, not just beer, but pretzels and nacho cheese...
Also, there was such a HIGH demand for the Bolt that I had to wait 7 months for GM to build it. There was no stock.
Legacy car makers can’t compete with Tesla and BYD
Truthfully, mes amis, ALL EV'S, vehicles of a Fool's Paradise, are but a fanciful dream...a Wet Dream.
PROBLEM IS that most of car makers CEOs apparently don't have a driver licence...
And then we have toyota’s former CEO (now chairman), Akio Toyoda, whos a certified racing driver.
His achievement as a racing driver is pretty crap, but he actly participated in them, while still keeping his job as Toyota’s CEO. Dude even had a crash in a prototype GR Yaris😅
After steam, in the 1940s came diesel electric locomotives. The Toyota Prius was produced starting in 1997 as a gas hybrid. Edison Motors has now built a hybrid logging truck. All 3 of these technologies that have worked for years have had little to no change in the infrastructure because they are all based on existing technologies. But now we run off and want batteries to do the whole job without a backup plan. And that precivilization is a dead end. E VS without infrastructure are basically junk. The whole world is pushing EVS, and now we see that EVS are Catching Fire "literally." So we have a fire hazard and an infrastructure problem, Plus EV sales are dropping like a proverbial rock.
When will all of these super smart multinational billionaire corporations Going to figure out that batteries explode and prius,s Get thirty five percent better fuel economy and run forever.
Sometimes I think the people who are in the positions to do things aren't good enough to clean my toilet.
Stupid also included hiring and promoting woke.
What will we do with all of the gasoline powered cars if they ever eliminate gasoline? All those junk cars just sitting around will be a lot of pollution. If they really care about the environment, they would push propane and natural gas conversions of gasoline-powered cars. It would cost about $3000 to convert a gasoline car to propane or natural gas; and this would create a huge number of legitimate jobs. And everywhere you go, you can buy refilled propane tanks - the infrastructure is already in place.
This isn't about the environment; it's about locking us down and bankrupting the auto industry.
The fools and their money were soon parted.
You are forgetting all Dealerships where price gouging for years this is inevitable cause and effect.
Mache E🤮
i dont want one, i imagine theres a ton just like me
What a way to blow a lot of money on a vehicle that no one wants and has worse depreciation
than a Citroen
In some ways for a few seconds i fell sorry for the buyers that were duped into buying an EV.
I have learned that hard and expensive way that you never buy the latest tech until it proves to be viable
and can still be sold and repaired many years after it was made, you can't say that about any EV.
First: I have a Jaguar diesel, I can not afford an EV.
Second: I put on 10k miles in a year and it lost £10k in trade in value, just let that sink in.
Third: GM went bankrupt in 2009, it sold SAAB, Vauxhall and Opel and has a debt of $122 Billion.
Forth: Ford has a debt of about $149 Billion. These are not small amounts.
The real reason EV have not been adopted by the middle class is because the middle class is gone, there is no middle class any more.
The reason EV sales have halved is because those who wanted or could afford an EV have got one. and they still keep there second hand value more than ICE cars.
Here is the rub, in the next three years Chinese car makers will break in to the world market in huge quantities, because there own market is swamped,
when this happens the price will be substantially cheaper.
That is when the real problems will occur, never mind the charging network, where will all the electricity come from, and what will happen to the current cost of home electricity?
EV's are not going away, they will replace ICE cars, they will become a disposable item just like the mobile phone, all it will take is for the recycling network to function correctly,
once that is in place all the current ICE makers who have not converted will be dead in the water. This is just my own opinion, yours might differ.
Fools and their money are easily parted!
Love that D. Trump is going to put an end to EV's !!
Sorry...Bobbys gonna put a much needed end to mr T.
Many ordinary people dont buy new cars They have to rely on used cars. The rest are finding out the hard way and regretting their losses. .Now we want EVs to go away. life is hard enough anyway
This will not work if battery replacement costs more than the car.
Also need at least 600 mile range and more abilities to charge. As well as rapid charging. And must get the cotton picking price down.
Be well...
A few years back, TOYOTA was the laughing stock, with many predicting their downfall. Fast forward to now, and TOYOTA is having the last laugh. Demand for TOYOTA ICE vehicles, especially Hybrids is so high that customers are willing to wait up to three years to lay their hands on one. At my local dealership here in Victoria, Australia, there isn't a single new TOYOTA available. The salesman informed me that people are even willing to pay extra to jump ahead in the waiting list. While there were a few TOYOTA models in the used car section, they came with hefty price tags. The salesman assured me that if I decided to sell my Camry, it would be snapped up within days. Sell my Camry? - I asked. Are you kidding me?
Jesus would never swap his mule for an EV. 😊.
EV is not broke. Our government pouring money. I wish I was broke like they are.
Redistribution of company profits. Say you're broke and receive more subsidies.
Hybrid is a best option for reducing carbon emissions
I dont know what to believe
I see semi trucks loaded with Rivian vans on Interstate 70 every day.
Coz what u see is only what YOU see. At most its a few hundred units that u personally see. What u dont see are the holding lots outside the factories.
Put it this way. Toyota alone sold 2.3 MILLION cars to americans last year in 2023. Translate that to the car carriers shuffling around the country to move that number… thats easily 200,000 car carrier trips a year, all around the country.
Theres no way earth ur gonna count that many cars or even car carriers in ur lifetime😅
BYD is still killing it.
Why is everyone wearing masks?
Bottom line is all of these ev makers are not car builders like the big 3, and the Japanese makers, they will all go broke
Indeed. fisker’s bullsh1t is that they dont even build their own cars.
Legacy car makers piled into EVs and they got it wrong.
They were going to provide competition for Tesla but now its going to be the Chinese EV makers.
Funny how this video doesn't mention Tesla the leading Western EV maker.
With the advances of ice vehicles the pollutants are not as bad as say the 70's with leaded gas. Electric is no where close to being feasible. Keep improving ice engines and release eletric when they have infrastructure and quicker charging.
The Australian government will want to prop the EV manufacturers(probably ford and gm again) to the tune of billions first before the taxpayer gets ditched. Again…
EV = Nut Zero = Woke = Broke
Another good example when driving a market with immaturity and hype and not as professional adults.
I'd rather invest in a pushbike.
Govt will force it
I love my Bolt EV! I love my ICE minivan. Am I wrong?
BEFORE YOU BUY AN EV, BUY THE VACANT BLOCK NEXT DOOR, AND KEEP IT MOWED VERY SHORT,
FOR PARKING !
SATT.
Perhaps they're making the wrong kind of EV.
The only way EV's could survive would be to target the second car and budget market, an ultra cheap get me to the shops, school or work and back on a single charge so I only have to charge at home and so cheap no one will want to steal it (an electric Mira or Mini) no bells or whistles (nothing to go horribly wrong) just a basic comfortable interior plenty of carrying space and a range meter (A mum/kid's first car). Even that would still be a challenge because they could still only be sold to people who have somewhere to park and charge them. Going for the luxury market should only have been rolled out after there was sufficient cheap away from home charging. and the little cheap cars had been proven reliable and people were after something EVen better. Oh, and make then easy to repair at home.
How on earth will Tesla survive this when they are not tooled=up to produce hybrids? What are they going to do with all that "dead" EV stock, piling up in large abandoned parking lots? Will the all-electric robo-taxi save them?
Oh dear , Oh good , EV's AU REVUIER !
Keep your e.v
Will be an antique someday!
EV's are junk! Buy older and great gasoline cars and rebuild them.
Why are the workers wearing face nappies .
There is no choice there will be EV and Hybrids in the future and less Gas and Diesel, I have seen this same scenarios in other business in the past.
. There’s an article by Roger Pielke that came out in Sept 2019 that broke down the math of what would be required to reach net-zero carbon dioxide emissions by 2050. The math is pretty simple. The fact is it’s an impossible goal. It’s probably impossible by 2100.
Oil, natural gas and coal are all at record highs for consumption. The only dip in recent years was because of the COVID shutdowns.
I’m all for cleaner sources of energy but the fact is it’s not going to happen unless it’s economically feasible. EV’s for the most part aren’t.
Here’s something else to keep in mind is that they are predicting that 1 to 1.5 billion people in 3rd world countries will be moving away from burning wood and animal dung to fuels such as natural gas.
There are multiple factors that must be consider including the ones you have stated.
The world has been threw this many times in the past.
Example: Mercury, Lead, Asbestos, Insecticides, Formaldehyde, Tobacco/Chemical additives and there is more that can be added to this list.
All have denied the cause and effects in the beginning plus yes numbers used can be wrong on all side.
How humanity adjust to these situation matters, This scenario is like a 2 mile long freight train traveling at 50 MPH it can not be stopped on a dime.
Thank You for a reasonable Discussion/Debate
So, you dont bealive in free energi?
