I agree, mandates are unnecessary. EVs are better cars in almost every way and getting better rapidly. ICE vehicles are pretty much as good as they'll ever be. In a couple of years, you'd need to be pretty dumb to pay more for an ICE vehicle that's worse than an EV in every way. It'll literally be an IQ test by that point.

They should just mandate gas vehicles can't be above a certain size and have a $0.05 gasoline sales tax to fund electric infrastructure. The idea that they could just mandate everything be all electric within the next ten years is absurd.

Can't save the planet with batteries

I live in the U.S. and I was not big on the E.V.s However I live in a decent size city and I have been seeing the E.V.s everywhere.I can't take a walk without seeing a Tesla.A couple years ago I just started seeing more and more of them.

They're sticking with what they already had, a hybrid, and ice, or even an electric vehicle. They just can't move to the new cars right now because with interest rates where they are they are too expensive.

@@O5680 that’s just a computer program that could just as easily be adapted for gasoline cars. Not that I would ever want to own a self driving car.

EVs generally have a much lower cost per mile than gasoline cars.

TheKriss, That is statement is absolutely untrue. Why? because the availability of the data necessary to make that statement accurate does not exist. First off, In places like Alaska, gasoline is easily a 1 dollar more than the rest of the country. In places like California, where they want it to look like Haiti within the next 10 years, its 2 dollars more a gallon than places like SC, OK, TN. But even if you do compile a national gas price average from sites like AAA, you have to compare that to home energy costs, and get a national average there. THAT is the part that is impossible to accurately obtain.

And one other thought on all of this, as the push for EVs is now switching to "hybrid" focus. All the advantages of both worlds, right? I suppose, if you live in places with lots of stop and go traffic. Your highway costs may not decrease enough to justify the cost of the vehicle. But do go ahead and buy one. (I said buy, not lease.) Because nothing I say here with knock you in the head harder, than the cost of keeping a hybrid maintained over time. Your own wallet will teach you far better than anything I have to offer.

lol bollox

See, Thats the thing, if what I said is indeed "bollox" then it should be fairly easy to demononstrate each point and where or why its untrue. But you did not do any of that. Because your eco beliefs are just as empty as the inside of your mind, and all you have in the tank is "bollox"?

Nobody wants a used EV. Battery could have water damage which equals spontaneous fire.

EVs can “survive” Canadian winters - they are on the roads in every type of weather, just as are ICE vehicles. No infrastructure?

The good news: You rarely need to take it to a garage. It's not going to be long when even small workshops will be able to service or repair EVs. In fact it's a big chance to specialize in EV repair as the contract garages' of the manufacturers are asking hefty hourly rates.

​@dirkvornholt2507 you don't repair batteries, you replace them

@mro9466 Nope. A battery is a bundle of cells or cell bricks. Bricks are combined to modules. Modules are combined to make a battery. Changing the elements (cell, brick, module) is referred to as repair, while changing the whole bundle is rather an upgrade as you get new cells with improved technical characteristics. Most battery defects can be attributed to the failure of a few cells. In this case, swapping cells is a viable option. Some 3rd party battery refurbishers already exist. More will follow. It's similar to ICE engines. You don't swap a faulty engine for a new one, but get a refurbished replacement.

You need to take it to an accredited garage where technicians have been trained and they use the recommended analysis and repair equipment.

so you drive non stop for 10-12 hours. I´d hate to be a passenger in your car. If I´m on a long trip I would stop every 2 hours for a stretch my legs, maybe a bathroom break and grab a coffee. After 6 hours of driving I would have covered 400 miles so stop and check into a hotel have a nice meal, a good sleep and finish the trip the next day. V4 superchargers will boost your battery from 15% to 80% in 20 minutes.

I envy your bladder sir. What a moron...

@@robertwoodhouse-bm7kt There is the traveler and there's the serious traveler. I to am a serious traveler. I make the 831 mile trip from Lancaster Pennsylvania to Jacksonville Florida. I sit very, very comfortable in a large large full size luxury automobile which tesla dosent even make. My jaguar XJL provides me with a highway range of 570 miles which supersedes any EV. No matter how many times i stop for what ever reason, i only have to stop once to fuel and takes me 3 to 5 minutes and not 20 to 30 minutes. I can easily drive for 3 to 5 hours before stopping to waste time. I'll keep my long range Jaguar XJl and leave well enough alone.....

@@robertwoodhouse-bm7kt , _>"so you drive non stop for 10-12 hours"._ Who told you that he drove non stop 10-12 hours? He said "I don't have to stop at all", but he didn say "I didn' stop at all".

agreed. Some people process their negativity while reading instead of comprehending first what the other was saying @@FirstNameLastName-hy1pf

Living in the Midwest with cheap housing, solar, and seeing people complain about where they choose to live or that they can't afford something. It's your own fault. Most people here have half a dozen kids going to private school and parents that "maybe" had a certification in welding.

@@syspowertools3372 People live where the jobs are and there are few job opportunities in the MidWest

The Hose-Guy.

@@syspowertools3372 If everyone was that "maybe certified in welding" person then how would society function?

So everyone moves to the Midwest and then it would be expensive there. More population density equals higher cost of living. Your comment lacks critical thinking.

Think about it. Outside Tesla, the charging infrastructure sucks even with government incentives. Car companies and government don’t know how to properly implement solutions to an issue that really isn’t an issue. If there really was a climate crisis, we would have had a space race type of R&D for alternative energy generation and transportation decades ago. When cars were first introduced, the public did not buy in until they got substantially better. EVs are still very early in development and forcing adoption of a technology that should be allowed to naturally grow is like a college student writing their essay an hour before. It makes a garbage product.

That’s why Tesla chargers are going to become industry standard.

I like vehicles where computers don't tell it to die. I refuse to buy even a push button start

Mining for lithium and cobalt..is disastrous for environment the scam of climate change is to tax on carbon footprint and making the social credit system..black mirror

​@@battery_wattagethere absolutely is a climate crisis. Several have tried to raise the alarm but the crisis doesn't hit immediately. It instead grows exponentially over many years. The sea level is absolutely rising, icebergs are melting, and extreme weather is becoming more common.

This is a lie. Stop trying to be relevant

@@JB-ys8mj we found the EV lobbyist!

Ive watched so much of Louis Rossman cover Tesla bring absolutely HORRIBLE on right to repair. they disable supercharging if you ever try to fix your own car and they make you pay out the ass to fix it at "their approved professionals". not to mention the older models not doing well with cold temperatures. its a total sham, ill get a gas car and a reliable electric bike.

@@JB-ys8mj Funny, I quickly found two news articles on KZfaq saying that people can get locked into an electric car if the battery dies. There is a manual way to get out but not everyone knows how to do that. Honestly took me less than a minute to find evidence the original comment could be true. So why don't you do a little research yourself and try to find out how the world really is instead of thinking you already know everything and putting people down to boost your ego.

@@scottperry7311the point is it’s on the owner to be aware of the backup door opener. There are gas powered vehicles that also utilize these electric latches now. The OP is clearly trying to fear monger with the door handles comment when in reality, it’s user error and irresponsibility.

💯

What should they have done? You need a critical mass of chargers for them to be useful

Vid is title is false, BEVs continue yr over yr rapid increase in sales. Ppl don't want EVs, they want Teslas, and for damn good reasons.

*LOL* That comment was beautiful. 🙏

😂

💯

They are also not greener. Looking at the whole life carbon footprint, they are worse

​@@lowermichigan4437It's about not choking folk in cities , you burn the nasty stiff out in the sticks to make electric vehicles for urban environment

Heat is also a problem

@@panzerswineflu These modern ones have heating and cooling for batteries so pretty good,you just have to read the instructions which most folk don't.

If you count the battery pack as 1 unit. EV’s have less parts than a combustion vehicle. So EV’s have less maintenance.

@@GROGU123 Yeah, then consider the cost of replacing it and it's like replacing the engine and transmission at the same time, as a WEAR ITEM

Despite of the present problems I believe EVs are the future, not in the next few years but eventually they will solve all technical challenges and become popular

@@thebeacon2 Make a EV battery that costs 1000$ and is standardized across the industry (something like 3 or 4 standard pack sizes and interfaces) and then the thing will be viable. Otherwise people here are confusing simple and viable. Simple is replacing a 8000$ module. Simple is replacing a 1000$ module that can no longer be purchased. Viable is not being stuck in either of those scenarios. Then we just need strong enough right to repair that we can go to a junk yard and pull a motor to replace a bad one and there will be plenty of parts around. The battery is really the sticking point because if they all go bad, you won't find good ones at a junkyard when it comes time to need one.

@@GROGU123 And if you count the vehicle as 1 unit you only have to fix 1 car... Uhm wait, hold that thought 😂 For crying out loud there's lots of electronics that can, will and do actually go wrong in electric vehicles, things that aren't being talked about because of shame. Less maintenance is just a terminology that doesn't mean anything without context, so here's something that you also can relate to: What does this or that car cost to own per year given the same amount of use if you compare a similar kind of electric compared to an ICE vehicle. Personally I believe there's a lot of things around electric cars that are just burried in fear and shame and all of that because of climate change propaganda. People wanting to be perceived as good obedient little puppies who purchase the car someone else want them to have so they can be poster sheep of the week... Anyhow, some people got to show integrity and just say: No f'ing way!

That's strange, I've been using EV only for 7 years now without any issue?

We are not completely there but 250 Miles on a charge I think that's very good start. And a lot of people are gonna talk differently when the fuel is $7 a gallon if Trump loses

ehh not true. radiation from them has definitely affected you in some way. @@airchie2

Some countries have adjusted well Like the Netherlands where 90% of all transportation is electric. there is nothing wrong with the EVs, The REAL planning is the problem. All they have to do is make them affordable, put chargers everywhere, and make the charging FREE!! As far as pollution, vehicles drive all over the place and are in direct contact with people, whereas the manufacturers are in one place so that's the difference.

@@airchie2wow that must mean that the EV experience is universal! Case closed everybody!
