EXPERTS ARE PREDICTING AN ‘EXPLOSION’ OF INEXPENSIVE ELECTRIC CARS

[Into the Night]

That you have ZERO articles to post that are not opinion columns from radical right zealots, just goes to show you know you are spreading fabricated BS.

If you could post actual articles from reputed automotive journals you would.

Ford has lost billions from it's EV models. They are laying off 7800 workers and getting out of EVs. Toyota has already gotten out of EVs. They were seeing the same lousy sales.
These are the automaker's statements themselves. No magazine needed.

D'uh.
Again you speak on topics you know nothing about.

You are describing yourself again.

D'uh.
Let me educate you once again.

You can't. You don't know the subject.

D'uh.
In a pre mass commercialization market and just building one of self sustained vehicle of course electric cars would make the most sense.

They are not self sustained. Makes no sense.

D'uh.
Not many people can distill gasoline at home

It's easy to do. Anyone can do it if they know how.

D'uh.
and access to it was very challenging.

Nope. Gas stations are everywhere.

D'uh.
However to scale in those early days, gasoline offered many advantages electric did not.

Why are you talking about the 1840's??

D'uh.
You need a very robust FIRST to scale up, and even today with our very advanced grid, we know it needs many upgrades.

Define 'advanced grid'.
Electrical grids are NOT a source of energy.

D'uh.
Gasoline, once you have mass producers, seeking if for profit, is much easier to scale, into communities with much less infrastructure. And since that infrastructure is also profit driven (gas stations) you get private individuals to carry those early costs.

Why are you talking about the 1840's?

D'uh.
It is sad you keep trying to opine on topics you clearly have no clue about anything you speak to. Your base knowledge is about a zero and your opinions are at 10. In real life you must be a real treat, offering strong opinions on everything, especially things you know nothing about. Again very much like MTG. You would probably lecture a top brain surgeon about 'why you do not accept what the experts say' just before surgery based on something you read on the internet and did not comprehend. Sad.

EVs are not brain surgery or surgery of any kind.

Your entire post is strawman after strawman...irrelevant.

Move on child. Let the adults speak.

Not you then.

You should have stopped at "you are prolly correct..."

Attempted proof by contextomy.

If you read Jim Farleys own words in his written articles, it is UNDENYABLE how bullish he is about the future of EV's and how Ford is going to play a key and dominant role in that market.
I doubt you can find a single article IN HIS OWN WORDS where he says different as the only negatives he talks about are the costs and dangers of not doing the transition right.

If you ONLY read derp opinion columnists, in doubly derp clown publications, selecting out singular sentences from Farley and then telling you their spin on it, then as you did, you might believe falsehoods and be too dumb to realize it.


Make no mistake, if Jim Farley was crapping on EV's it would be in all the respected Automotive Journalist magazine and media.

You can rail against this all you want but when the ONLY place you can find something negative to post is the OPINION pages of derp right media, and it appears NO PLACE ELSE, and you are so accepting of it that you run to post elsew2hgere as proof, you are living proof of the gullibility and stupidity that exists in abundance on the right. The echo chamber effect in full display.

Ford is getting out EVs. Toyota already has.

Yes you are done loser

'Done' does not mean 'lose'.

It’s a loser bot hole

They say what they claim to say. You don't get to deny the contents of a post or a meme.

What a superficial definition of soul you have.

If you charge a Tesla from dead it will take 4 days. It varies based on the KW of the battery. I do not see this catching on either for now. It would be better to ease into all this with hybrid engine/electric vehicles.

Tesla sales increased 83% from last year.

EXPERTS ARE PREDICTING AN ‘EV-PLOSION’ OF CHEAP, ELECTRIC CARS — HERE’S HOW LOW PRICES COULD GET

The EV market is booming, and there are a lot of exciting upcoming models. by Mila Dyson*/*May 18, 2023

In 2022, electric vehicle (EV) sales were on the rise but mostly remained popular for buyers with a large budget, with many consumers still finding them too expensive. Several of Tesla’s models were among the most popular EVs across the U.S., and Car and Driver reported it as the bestselling luxury auto brand.
Why 2023 is the year of the EV
Thanks to the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), many EV buyers will now qualify for all or part of a $7,500 EV tax credit when they go for a new EV. And Tesla and other carmakers have lowered their prices.*
So, as the numbers of EV models available skyrocket and the price of EVs naturally goes down, when the tax credit is considered, many more EVs will soon enter the mainstream, in what Tech Crunch called the “EV-plosion.”
What’re some of the most exciting upcoming electric vehicles?
The EV market is booming, and there are a lot of exciting upcoming models. Many higher-priced EVs don’t qualify for the IRA tax credit — they need to have an MSRP of less than $55,000 unless they’re trucks, vans, or SUVs (which can be eligible at prices up to $80,000). But the growth of the lower-cost EV is electrifying.
One exciting new prospect is the 2024 Chevrolet Equinox EV, which should be relatively affordable with a starting price close to $30,000. Once the $7,500 tax credit is factored in, it would come at a reasonable starting price of $22,500. This compact electric SUV will have an enormous range of 250 miles estimated between charges (or up to 300 miles with higher-priced options), so there is no need for any range anxiety.
The Fisker Ocean is a stylish SUV that its maker has released in Europe and expects to start delivering in the U.S. in June. The base model has an estimated range of 250 miles and a base purchase price of $37,499 — MAGA wets panties.

EV prices are going in the wrong direction / Up — they’re going up

"One of the major barriers to mass adoption of electric vehicles is cost. EVs are just way too expensive, with the average price hitting an all-time high earlier this summer of $66,000. That’s disappointing because the auto industry has always promised that prices would come down as EV battery packs became more efficient to manufacture.

But even more disappointing is the rate that EV prices are increasing as compared to their gas equivalents. According to a recent analysis by car shopping database iSeeCars, electric car prices saw a year-over-year increase of 54.3 percent while gas-powered cars were up just 10.1 percent."
