VinFast, a Vietnamese EV company, announced in 2022 that they would be building a huge car and battery manufacturing plant in NC that would employ 7,500 people. They just announced there will be a delay and nothing will be starting until 2028. I'm expecting delay will turn into cancellation either this year or next.

I literally hate EVs because they represent a mass formation psychosis in which people have been duped into believing that the end of the world is imminent because of "climate change" and meanwhile there are wars everywhere that are killing people and causing mass migrations. The largest carbon emitter is the military. Some of the same people driving EVs are cheering wars in Ukraine and Gaza.

Back in 1988, about a month after I took a delivery of my 1st brand new one 4-wheel drive , Isuzu Trooper-II, during my trip home from work in Waltham, MA it was heavy ice storm, when I turn on my windshield wiper, it stopped working, I pulled over to my Isuzu dealer near my office in Waltham, MA and asked for help to fixed motor of wiper. They told me that my warranty does not covered the wiper during the storm since it was considering "act of God" and I ended up paying for this service. This was my 1st warrenty claims and it was denial and I have to pay up front fee at the dealer.

Just got a new vehicle but opted for a conventional ICE powered one over EV. The lack of charging stations and time it takes to charge, dangers of spontaneous combustion and EV fires being difficult to put out, range anxiety and the enormous cost of doing repairs among other things fueled my decision (no pun intended). I'll probably be open to considering an EV when manufacturers come up with acceptable solutions to those issues.

When I can zoom at least 400 miles on a single 10 minute charge to a lightweight, fireproof battery that will last at least 20 years, and said charge costs way less than a tank of gas, and the vehicle will last 500,000+ miles and costs less than $30K..... you'll SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!

Hey, and don’t forget the people that own them already are going to have fun because in order to use their sunroof they have to have an app and they have to pay monthly to use that app but Fisker isn’t going to support the app anymore. Now these people won’t even be able to use the sunroof in the cars they already own, or should I say they won’t be able to operate the sunroof that they bought and paid for

Tesla was first to market with a huge market share. Tesla will continue to lower prices which will utterly slaughter all non Chinese EV companied. Then when Chinese EVs and Teslas get cheaper than ICE vehicles legacy auto will be slaughtered too. Legacy auto has already been slaughtered in the Chinese market.

I'm keeping Geo Metros, but may get a Yaris. The reliability of the Yaris will surpass any fuel savings of a hybrid - if the small size is adequate. I have a simple old truck that will mostly be parked so Yaris or Metro is fine for me. EVs are fun, but saving money is better.

Regarding breakthroughs in a lab: The scientists know exactly what they have, and how far from having something on the bench is from use in actual production. The problem is in the reporting. Yes, there are exciting and potentially world-changing things happening in labs around the world. But it is still something experimental, in a lab setting. Science reporting is generally pretty poor by the regular media. Science focused journals like Nature do a better job.
