“. . . are also seeing fast-growing full electric vehicle (BEV) sales,
So all those stories about EV’s piling up on dealer lots are just so much horse-pucky?
We DO NOT need the expensive, unreliable, and unnecessary electric cars, or their charging stations!!
Ban them!!
It’s fun with numbers.
If you sold 1 EV last year and 2 this year, that’s a 100% increase.................
People buy them out of curiosity and as a 2nd car. Most say Never Again. That’s why Domestic sales have tanked. People also don’t want to add $5k chargers to their house just to watch their garage catch fire.
There are lies, damn lies and statistics…
Not likely.
Interesting charts.
Where’s the one showing Ford has lost 6 Billion Dollars due to EV sales?
Some of the numbers are misleading. For instance, Toyota’s 748% increase had more to do with last year’s offering being underwhelming, and Toyota certainly not pushing them.
It’s a landslide! Still a firm NO! I wonder what, or if, there is any kind of ratio for EV saviours and CONvid vax recipients. Saving the erf ain’t easy.
The stat I just read said that 6.5% of all registered cars are EVs.
Wonder how many are government fleets.
Who can afford a garage to put a 5 to 10 thousand dollar charging station in it.
Why is it always sound like these people want to force me to buy one of these crapmobiles?
and the Biden Admin is buying 90% of them
Bidenmobiles.
Yesterday I had 5 dollars in my wallet. Then, today, a friend gave me the 10 bucks he owed me. I increased my wealth by 200%!!
All of my cars have batteries and have things that run on electricity.
“It’s fun with numbers.

My thoughts, exactly.
It looks like Tesla is way out selling all others. The others are losing billions.
Now wait a few years and see if the owners of electric vehicles still are driving them or dump them as my cousin did. He has a BMW hybrid now that cost more then his parents home did. He still does not get it but I am betting he will buy a gas car.
Percentages are fun.
I just heard some “financial expert” say that stocks went down 18% last year and are up 18% this year so folks are even.
Of course it does not work that way.
Simple example:
You have $100 and the market goes down 20% (to keep the calculation easy).
Now you have $80.
Then the market went up 20%.
Now you have $96.
Lol.
“Right now there are about 286 MILLION vehicles on the road. Being replenished by about 14.9 million new car/truck sales per year”
Call us when your crack 1 million in new sales
