what about the range?

Well said.

@ Jelly Aptly put 👌. This should go beyond just EVs and further to other innovations (especially techs relating to energy/power, bio-linked, et al) to be considered well first and allowed to be determined by the market (people). An innovation should flow in a free market where it could serve as an option to some while, a necessary transition for others. All comes with backsides and these backsides may be weightier/more intensive from a small scale compared to say, another with a bigger/larger scale. EVs rate incomparable on the scale of general efficiency and that is sure, a great point. That means we'll not just for the climate but...corporations as well.

Pls elaborate more!

Toyota is 💩💩💩. Byd, tesla, kia etc better everyway, battery tech. Company.

There's a really good chance that using AI technology to model chemical/material simulations and using AI to find new potential candidates is going to be what creates the most substantial progress on this subject. The pharmaceutical industry has almost entirely switched to using specialized AIs to find new drug candidates and to simuate what kind of receptor activity and pharmacological effect they will have. The vast majority of drug models are now made by computer programs. Same thing for protein structure modeling. It used to take entire teams of scientists to put together the structures of a handful of proteins. Now, computers are able to model hundreds of proteins in mere minutes. It's absolutely incredible, and I'm hard pressed to think that material science would advance in any other way.

May you please develop more what you know about it?

No it isn't, in fact LITO batteries are still wildly utilized and researched, it isn't used in EV/BEV applications due to it's relative higher weight to energy ratio in relation to lithium ion and lifepo4 cells

The Nio ET5 has a range of 1,000km (with a 150KW battery) and can swap to another full battery at a station in 4 minutes. If one needs the car only for daily trips to work & can charge at home then range is not an issue and no time wasted at a gas station. Big and fast changes happening to the EV cars technology. Internal combustion engines are becoming a history.

@@skasey4080 oh 4 minutes for full charging 150 kWh battery pack ? can you tell us what is a charging current ?

​@@minhkieu3412 They're not recharging them. They're swapping the dead batteries out for ones that are already charged up and ready to go.

​@@skasey4080 I do think recharging is the way to go, though. I don't think swapping out batteries on something as expensive as an automobile is realistic for a consumer market where people are responsible for the maintenence of their own vehicles, and where a lack of maintenence can result in very costly repair bills.

Honestly, I think this is such a fucking cope. People such as yourself try to make it sound like EVs and EV technology is too young and undeveloped to be at all practical, and that's just simply NOT true. No, EVs are not developed to where they can outright replace ICE vehicles, but I'm not even necessarily sure if EVs will EVER replace ICE altogether. It may very well remain the case that for industrial and commercial applications, diesel engines and diesel generators powering electric motors (as is the case with modern trains) will remain to be the most common solutions. HOWEVER, when it comes to passenger vehicles and what the best solution is for everyday transportation and commuting, EVs are already in a position where they offer a real alternative to ICE vehicles, and it won't be very long AT ALL until EVs are MORE convenient - as it stands, the only real area where ICE vehicles are without a doubt more convenient than EVs is when used for long distance traveling. Yes, it is much quicker to completely fill a tank of gas than it is to completely charge an electric vehicle, but I think you greatly overstate how long it actually takes EVs to reach a full charge these days. Yes, if you have your car plugged in to a 110V wall socket next your vibrating dildo it's gonna take 24-36 hours to fully charge from 0%. But nobody charges their car like that anymore. At the very least, people are charging their cars at home on 220V, which cuts that charging time in half, and when they charge their cars at a charging station, most modern EVs are are able to fully charge in a half hour or less and be able to take you just over 300 miles, with some EVs having even longer ranges than that. How many miles can your car take you on a single tank of gas? Cause my 2.0t 4 cylinder Japanese sedan can take me about 360 miles on a single tank. 360 > 300 is NOT a selling point. Worst Worst case scenario, when you take a long trip, every 4 or 5 hours spent driving will have to be broken up by a half hour to stretch your legs, get some snacks, use the bathroom, and do whatever else while your car charges. Honestly, that's not that bad. Especially when the average person takes a trip of that sort maybe only a couple of times each year. Not to mention, the majority of people who are faced with a drive over 4 or 5 hours are probably just going to opt to fly anyway. And even in the case of people who work doing a lot of driving within their hometown/metropolitan area doing something like delivering food or working as a parts chaser for an auto shop, it would be rare to drive 300 miles in a single day, and even if you did drive more than that, you can just park at a charging station when you take your lunch break and get a full fucking charge in before you have to clock back in. As for price, idk what cars you're looking at, or if you think all EVs are the same price as Teslas, but EVs are actually incredibly affordable. Brand new EVs are within the exact same price range as their ICE counterparts, they're cheaper to operate because electricity is WAY cheaper than gas, they require maintenance less often than ICE vehicles, and when they do, it's often cheaper as well, and contrary to what you believe, EVs are actually FAR more reliable and cheaper on repairs over the lifetime of the car than gasoline or diesel vehicles. As for longevity, are we all just forgetting that vehicles haven't gone 300k miles and lasted people for decades since we left the 90s? Most people drive about 12,000 miles per year. So saying that EVs "only" last 10 years before needing a battery replacement is fucking asinine. You show me any car out there other than a Toyota that isn't going to need some form of major repairs done on it once it's ran over 120k miles. Honestly, I just see comments like yours and it's obvious that you've never actually looked into whether EVs COULD be convenient or not, and you're simply repeating the talking points that every EV hater parrots but doesn't understand in the least. Either that, or you use examples of rare use cases and apply it to say EVs can't fulfill the needs of everyday commuting. You MAYBE driving from Houston to Dallas once a year to visit your in laws at Christmas is a stupid fucking reason to disqualify you from purchasing a vehicle which is more than capable of getting you to and from work everyday, running all of your errands, and taking you around for a night on the town without ANY issues, and doing it all more cheaply than an ICE could. I should know. I owned one of the very first EVs available on the market, and even that car with its 90 mile range was plenty for getting me around the urban sprawl of San Diego county. It was my ONLY car. I drove it every day, had ZERO issues, paid only $27 extra in electricity charges (in one of the most expensive cities in the nation for electricity), and not once did I run into an issue where I couldn't do something because my car limited me. EV technology has only gotten SUBSTANTIALLY better since then. To be frank, I really think that what you're saying is simply your way of being able to justify your refusal to make a responsible decision, because you just don't give a fuck. And between you and me, I would respect you a hell of a lot more if you'd just come out with the truth and tell everyone that you actually just don't really care, and that their environmental concerns inspire nothing but apathy in you and that everyone can kiss your ass. At least then you're just an asshole, instead of being an asshole AND a pussy.

Uhhh... Dude, that's not an actual person narrating this video. This was pretty clearly made using a Text-to-Speech computer program. It's the same technology that is so popular on TikTok videos where the voice of a woman is used to read off the video captions. 😂

If I'm not mistaken, EV's have started to use more proprietary cell structures for their batteries. BUT! Up until just a few short years ago, basically all EV batteries, regardless of automaker, just used a shitload of 18650s wired together into arrays which were further wired together into assemblies further wired together to act as one. For example, something like 20 18650s would be wired together in parallel and treated as a single "cell", then 10 of those "cells" would be wired together in series as a single "battery." Now, I don't know exactly how many 18650s were used at each level, so those figures of 20 and 10 are just to illustrate a point, but yes, originally, EV battery manufacturers DID use 18650s as the base unit battery with which they built their battery arrays.

@@GR8APE69 yea I've seen that as well.

And discharge them in a matter of seconds, they are nowhere near being a contender for being the main power storage method

Capacitors have very less power storage time and their discharge is very fast. They are not suitable for long time current flow requirements.

Yeah, but saying "capacitor" sounds cool as fuck and makes me look smart 😎

likely equal to or more likely less than oil .

@@niq872 Exactly well said.

A lot less than the dudes killed in the thousands of wars that countries like the USA invaded for oil... i mean, "liberated"

What about the slaves that were used to get the materials of the device you are using to watch this video. 🤣

How many?
