Autoline TV is based in Michigan, and all of its sponsors are related to the internal combustion engine (ICE) industry. It's understandable that the show may not be enthusiastic about technologies that could make the jobs of their personal friends and colleagues obsolete. However, given Jim Farley's interview on July 5th where he acknowledged that Ford will be dead if they don't find a way to manufacture battery electric vehicles (BEVs) profitably, I now believe the future of BEVs is certain.
@elvinthalund5193Ай бұрын
I find it interesting how Autoline uses the legacy auto phrase lag of EV demand, when the best selling car in the world is an EV. What do you think will happen when Tesla introduces a $25K EV or if the Chinese was allowed to import their EVs, I would think the demand would increase dramatically. My suggestion to a better description of the state of affairs for EV's is "There is a lack of price competitive EV's in many segments".

Not some V8 forever type of guy but from my understanding Tesla sales are slowing. Their models are still the top tier but the growth is slowing. And they have put the idea of a 25k EV on halt last I heard but the industry always goes back a forth. I think the biggest issue facing Tesla is their aging models. The Model 3 and Y are ancient and the I think making a better interior instead of taking away more features would help them attract more buyers. And I think the R&D that went into the Cybertruck should have went to a said 25k EV crossover or a larger third row CUV. Just my opinion.
@nickmcconnell1291Ай бұрын
@@baronvonjo1929 Good opinions. As to the models, indeed they are slow but that's part of how they can be profitable when others are losing gobs of money or barely squeeking by. However, right now all of Tesla is concentrating on Robo-taxi where the margins are insane. For example, Tesla makes around $4,000 on a car sale right now. A robo-taxi charging only half the price of an Uber/mile and only used 50% of a day would, after maintenance and cleaning expenses, produce around $10,000 of net profit per year! If the car can be used for five years that's $50,000 profit per car. More than a 12X increase in profit per vehicle. Tesla management would be negligent to their stock holders if they did not pursue that full on.
@junkerzn7312Ай бұрын
Just excuses for their poor planning. These legacy vehicle makers are suddenly realizing that all their battery efforts become obsolete even before they go into production. The technology is moving too quickly and they can't keep up. Production facilities are not research facilities. This equation will change once battery technologies settle down, maybe in a decade or so, but in the mean time car makers really just have to buy the Chinese cells and convince governments that tariffs are counter-productive at the current juncture. -Matt

Stellantis have been making very mild hybrid vehicles for a few years. It's getting to the stage where only Hybrids and Electric vehicles will be available for sale globally in roughly ten years into the future which is no surprise. Even though Lithium-ion batteries are getting better the change to Solid-State batteries is definitely needed. My opinion is Hydrogen is not a suitable fuel for trucks and cars especially after watching a Toyota refueling in California but has a role in many other applications. People do realise that if a RAV4 Hybrid can do 700 miles on a tank of E10 fuel then how much further would a diesel Hybrid travel? We all understand that the percentage of power produced by fossil fuels in the USA is still in excess of 50% which makes the push for net Zero seem like a joke at the present time. 😎🇦🇺

Tesla sells more EVs in North America than every one else combined. Only stock shorters are foolish enough to bet against Tesla. It's estimated they have lost close to $100B!

It just makes common sense not to over invest in the current battery tech given the amount of cells required and overall weight. It's too bad humans just don't seem to take the long road into account but instead try short term gains at the cost of efficiency and conservation. Until the batteries get smaller and lighter weight then the whole EV market is just upside down. How does it make any sense at all to increase the weight of a low energy density platform? Again you'd have to reduce drag and weight if the energy density just isn't there but instead we are adding tons of extra weight per each battery pack etc. Some will argue we have to start somewhere but the lithium ion battery was never the right choice.

Leave the software development, electrical engineering, and battery chemistry, to the Americans and the Chinese. They have the experience, they have the data, they have the assets, the funding, the support, and they have the capacity to supply the entire world’s demand; there’s little doubt they do it best.

Soon they will be caught with their pants down when the battery market tightens up again as China makes more and more EVs for export. Mercedes needs to go all EV as petrol stations are closing through lack of demand throughout much of the EU. In three years it will be more difficult to find petrol and the price will have sky rocketed as refineries will stop making it or will raise their prices considerably to make their margins.
