I have 6 cars at my house. 3 are mine . I absolutely have considered getting an EV for my wife to replace her X3 in the near future. Probably a Porsche Taycan 4S or some other SUV type EV. I will be replacing my house electrical panel to a 200 amp service so I can have an electrical charger set up in the near future if I need it. So idea of me being against electric vehicles is of course total Barbara Streisand. I’ve already stated a half a dozen times what I’m against. |

Still is now, but the incentives will obviously disappear as the momentum behind BEVs displaces ICEs from the market and the grid and renewal electricity generation have to adapt. It is unlikely the cost per km/mile of the same class and age of ICE will ever be below that of a BEV again. https://www.euronews.com/next/2022/1...-vs-refuelling

No one is forcing anyone to purchase an EV or not purchase an ICE vehicle. And they wont for decades to come. Buy whichever you prefer. Last edited by akin67; 04-23-2023 at 10:05 AM.. |

This is from the Shanghai Motor Show last week. You can see what is coming from China in next few years. . If we don't develop competitive EV technologies in the US, these are the vehicles Americans will be driving.

China is on the "foreign entity of concern" list. They will never qualify for the IRA $7500 tax credits, due to this. Being down $7500 to competitors is a massive barrier to entry into the US market. |

Which is why Tesla is the leader in this game period. I said it many times and I’ll say it again. It’ll take about 5-8 years for car makers to catch up. With the tesla price cuts, nothing on the market competes with it, no matter what variant of whatever Tesla model you’re looking at. Let’s go Elon!!!

First it was a conspiracy that governments were pushing people into ev, now it’s because pollution etc.
Evs are retarded and requires modern day slavery in the form of destabilizing counties to plunder their resources. It’s too look and deep of a conversation for this topic, but anyone claiming EVs are cleaner probably is ok with exploitation of people for the sake of feeding their ego. What more economical- keeping a car you have or buying a new one that requires Massive amounts natural resources? |

the whole notion that EV's are somehow plateued on technology is also hilarious
EV tech is just getting started...battery tech is excelerating rapidly longer range 10 minute charging almost fully recyclable battery etc... https://electrek.co/2023/02/09/this-...in-10-minutes/ https://www.autoevolution.com/news/s...er-210281.html https://www.energymonitor.ai/sectors...cle-batteries/ https://cleantechnica.com/2022/05/09...l-performance/ |

Dang! Our first thread elitist!!!! Where have you been hiding? Dealing with people like you in person face to face is a complete and total blast. It usually ends with the elitist storming out of the room.

How is not allowing any more combustion engine vehicles to be built after 2035 not forcing people to buy electric vehicles? I don’t hate electric vehicles. I bet MOST of the people here arguing against them being made mandatory to manufacture through unguided emotional legislation don’t hate them either. |
