Sorry Elon.
Manhattan Contrarian ping
My prediction is their prices will drop.
another result will be safer gas cars
they will be larger
and they wont be made out of plastic
As far as the headline goes, the EV market was already practically nothing even with the EV tax credit in place. The fad is over and hardly anybody else was buying EV's.
And so it should today.
It wasn’t surviving with the subsidies...so let’s take a wild guess.
My guess: there will still be an EV market, but it will be smaller. The end of subsidies will reduce demand, but EVs still have advantages and emotional appeal for certain groups.
Hopefully not. Few want to purchase these high-end golf carts...unless US Taxpayers are forced to subsidize them.
Mr. Musk, how about electric train travel?
Make train travel great again.
For EV makers, there is a glimmer of hope. A small, practical cold fusion device is supposedly set to be released to market this year.
All too often the incentives provided by government under the auspices of “doing good things” are really just a vehicle to transfer public funds into the pockets of the “connected” either directly or indirectly.
Only a leftist would substitute ‘maneuvered’ for ‘regulated’.
I don’t know the author, but I stopped reading right there.
Was it ever alive or just Leftest government dreams
Will EVs survive having to compete on a level playing field?
Yes, just not as well.
Where’s the pic of all the ford ev trucks packed into a field?
Today, we have electric cars that are firebombs on wheels. Not that every EV bursts into flames. No, EV fires are very, very hard to put out using current fire fighting techniques. It's like we have a seventy-story building and fire truck ladders can only reach the bottom ten floors. Ships have been severely damaged by them, because shipboard fire fighting gear is worthless against fires with their own oxidizer.
My apartment lease has a ban on battery-powered plug-in cars. No exceptions. That's why there isn't a single Tesla badge on the property. So far, the ban does not extend to hybrids...yet.
If we every have another "safety czar" rise from the ashes, you may see the current EV cars declared a public safety hazard. Then we will see how the EV makes transition to safer battery chemistry.
will EVs survive when auto makers are freed to manufacture vehicles folks REALLY want to buy AND without the need for Federal bribes? ... i think the answer is clear, and the answer is “NO”, EVs will be deader than the Dodo bird ...
Its called a single cylinder engine because inlet and exhaust occur at the same time...clever design of the inlet manifold causes swirling while exhaust goes on.
Not only will it survive, it will thrive. And, it will be the survival of the fittest. And, the fittest is Tesla. Not only are they a decade ahead in technology of all other EV manufacturers, Tesla is going to be right on time with the release of their new super aluminum ion battery. Certain models of Teslas will be equipped with this new battery in the 2026 models. The new battery is lighter, has higher energy density, lower cost, longer life cycles, and faster charging times and improved safety compared to lithium-ion batteries.
What people forget, is that Tesla is a BIG producer of batteries in the solar energy market. Tesla and solar are joined at the hip. Their new battery technology will definitely transfer right over into the solar market. This means cheaper and more productive solar for homeowners.
If you think Tesla is going to take a dump over this, you're behind the curve. I'm not a gazillionaire, but I've made enough money on Tesla stock in five years to buy a Tesla.
