and electricity prices are going up as they shift to “green” energy
pushing EVs before a grid upgrade sounded like putting the cart before the horse
you are not cutting emissions if your electricity comes from conventional fuels
“green energy” will be so expensive only the rich and powerful will be able to afford personal transportation
the masses will have to use bus bike walk
so the quiet part is that there is no need to upgrade the capacity of the grid
the shift to “green energy” and EVs is not about banning gas cars it is about forcing everyone onto public transportation
Posted on TruthSocial. Last week.
how much solar charging capability does it have?
my understanding is that solar could not add much
are you plugging into solar at home?
Ok
RE: The first five paragraphs must have been written by a 12 year old at best. A silly, facile comparison
Can you elaborate more? I think it is essential to compare EVs with gas powered cars to get an indication of how much it will cost the car owner.
I’d really be pleasantly surprised if your average 12 year old could write like that.
thank you
still would like to know the publication
whoa
thats not a car
its a spaceship
LOL, the state fee for “one” battery (not 6000)
I have a BMWi3, and I think its listed as a gasoline powered vehicle. It has the gas powered generator that feeds the battery.
I put about two gallons in the two gallon tank every six months. I charge every night for a 150 mile range in the morning.
So these hybrids, they will be worth more if they elude taxes.
“Steel and aluminum must be melted down and reformulated to be used in other products. No mining involved, but pollution guaranteed from the smelting and remanufacturing process.”
Obviously, but there is a huge difference in impacts.
I googled and got one:

Aptera... first look, shocking. But after seeing it for a minute, I like it.
Very futuristic look. Like a bird without wings, a fish with wheels.
Did you test drive one?
Only $30,000 to replace a battery? This is right out of leftist lunacy land.
EV’s do nothing to stop global warming which is a really big hoax.
My wife and I were joined on our morning walk by our neighbor, who knows every thing re everyone on our culdesac.
My wife and I noticed what appeared to be recent/new solar panels on one of the neighbor’s home.
Our fellow walker told us that it was new EV solar panels for 2 new EV chargers.
I remarked that the couple, who owned the house were Subaru liberals with a single 10 year old Subaru in their driveway.
Our walker said that the adult children owned EV’s and said that was too much hassle for their 2-300 mile one way trip to visit the grandparents, the owners of the Subaru.
So grampa and gramma bought/had installed the solar panels and dual outdoor chargers for the visiting EV vehicles and grandkids.
Our guide said so far everyone seemed happy.
To compare the operating cost of an IC to an EV using only the cost of a battery to start the car for the operating cost is horribly incomplete and dishonest. The starter battery in an IC is just a fraction of the opex of the vehicle.
I do not favor the EV but if there is to be a comparison it needs to be complete and honest. Superficial comparisons as this one don’t help the argument one bit. The author should leave the first five paragraphs alone and stick with the latter on resource base for the EV, something he may have some credibility about.
That the argument posed in the first five paragraphs is facile should be obvious to just about anyone with even a basic understanding of vehicles. The understanding presented is not even at a basic level.
Slave labor and environmental disaster is fine as long as libtards feel good
“carsick in EV” now trending higher on Google Search, LOL.
