Because the INTEREST a person HAS for an EV fades rather rapidly as the consumer learns of the mistake she made and it becomes a beast of burden overshadowing the fascination for the gimmick.

"New Study: EVs Losing Value Twice As Fast As Petrol Vehicles"
Decades ago, something I started giving serious consideration when buying a vehicle was how difficult I expected it might be to find replacement parts. That turned out to be a very wise consideration. I'm not sure I'd take a used EV even if I got it free.

The rats plan is to regulate ICE vehicles out of existence. The next round of CAFE standards are designed to do just that. They will be damn near impossible to meet. The car makers are well into converting all future cars so they aren’t putting up a fight.
To: Red Badger
T’was to be expected. EVs have been out for a few years and the suckers who jumped on that bandwagon early are now finding out that the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is substantial. Add in the cost of charging station, the increase in monthly electric bill, higher vehicle insurance and the expected value of close to zero for a well-used EV with a dead battery and the suckers will realize that they have coughed up several times the sticker price for what is now a large paper-weight. And they are now on foot ...
Just how stoopid are liberals anyway ??

Yes.
Nothing about the rat’s push toward EVs makes sense until one realizes the larger goal is to impoverish the middle class and build The New Man upon the rubble.

Not anything to worry about. The Fed will just issue another bailout for those foolish enough to buy them.

all the talk about getting away from fossil fuels, going ‘clean’, etc .... we do not have the mineral resources to do it Don't need them. EVs are powered by rainbows and unicorn farts.

I agree. But their agendas eventually eliminate most cars altogether.

They have virtually no resale value - battery goes out, that’s it for it. Either a new battery doesn’t exist to begin with at any price, or it costs a fortune if it does.
To: gibsonguy
You’re right. The car companies are going to downsize dramatically for various reasons, the biggest reason being not many people will be able to afford the EVs.
Toyota has already said they are not going to build many EVs until the infrastructure to support them is in place.

EVs make a great 3rd car for wealthy couples to drive to the local supermarket on weekends. Ad a few correct bumper stickers and they can look like true climate warriors!

Exactly the case with a former friend. During the lockdown, he and his wife had their groceries delivered.... from Whole Foods, of course.

Toyota Is about the only holdout. They see that despite the huge push EV’s have gone from 4% to a whopping 6%.
To: gibsonguy
Toyota is very smart. They’re at the top of sales and want to stay there.

“The Government really needs to take action if it wants to continue to push the idea of EVs onto the consumer,..."
This one statement proves unequivocally that EVs cannot compete in the marketplace. If government action is required, the free market has rejected it.
