So well sales are 'increasing'... Come back and see me when you have one type of Tesla vehicle that sells 900,000 units per year... Pardon me if I don't hold my breath.
Rarely see evs in the passing lane. Chews up too much range. Faster an ev goes the less efficient it is. Not so for ice vehicles. Sweet spot for an ice is highway speeds. Ev is better at stop and go city traffic 30 or 40 mph.
When Trump gets back in office and oil drops again to sub 50 per brl, ev adopters will be really sore, especially when thay try to sell a used ev. Good luck to them.
Wow THAT’S it I’m selling everything I have to buy an electric car because they sold a few last year.
Go away with this stupid crap.
The EV is a plot to restrict our freedom to move and 2has zero chance of getting off the ground.
Aren’t these the same people that told us the American electric grid was so old and outdated THEY might have to command us to shut off our air conditioners?
Yep!
No AC for you proles!...................................
Who doesn’t want an EV, AS A SECOND CAR? Especially if you are rich.
For the rest of us, it is a loser.

It’s fun with numbers.“
That is exactly what it is and it’s BS. Last year all of the media ran with “EV are surging”. In actuality they went from 4% to 6%. So they were able to say there was a 50% increase.
Don’t care. I’m not buying one.
Percentage growth in a low-volume market doesn’t mean too much by itself. Would be interesting to see sales figures vs. ICE vehicles.
In Serbia?
The charts show that Ford is making it up in volume.
Sorry, not true.
where
Fd is the drag force,
ρ is the density of the fluid,
v is the speed of the object relative to the fluid,
A is the cross sectional area, and
Cd is the drag coefficient – a dimensionless number.
Not enough resources, another scam to impoverish lemmings. Suggested Reading: Professor Simon Michaux’s works on the resources required to “go green”.
Silicon 5.9 years to produce enough
Lithium 9,920.7 years to produce enough
Copper 189.1 years to produce enough

Reality refuses to budge.

I just bought what’s called a “mild hybrid” that has all the advantages of electric and none of the disadvantages.
I’d go without a car rather than have to buy an electric car. It is an invention so inferior only a professor or a political could think it was a good idea . For our enemies it must be part of their plan.
None of the disadvantages? No Insurance, No Gas, No tolls, no maintenance.
You bought the bridge if that’s what you think. You bought a little bit of gas savings and a lot of complication.
Yes, my old book on statistics tells me that hiding behind huge percentual increases is a very low base.
Doubling of sales, if you sold few originally could be a piece of cake. doubling a million car sales is pretty hard!
I will be ordering a ‘24 ICE-only F-150 Monday.
It may be the last chance.
It may be the last one...........................
