Adrian Hallmark needs to be told to get off the big lie of climate change.

Wanna make EVs? Fine. Quit the virtue signaling garbage.

With the price of EVs these days you’d think they all were Bentleys already...

Anyone remember the Chlorophyl fad way back when? Food, pharma, candy/gum, and other manufacturers suddenly started putting it into their products, claiming chlorophyl’s “miraculous” ability to eliminate odors. Green was everywhere and in everything. Until someone pointed out that sheep, goat, cows, etc all eat chlorophyl while they’re grazing, and they stink to high heaven.

Point is, every few years manufacturers lose their collective minds until the cold hard slap of reality wake them from their trance. We’re witnessing the beatdown now.

Given that a Bentley weighs about as much as an M1 Abrahms, I just laughed when they announced this nonsense.

On a semi related note..... I don’t think that a report has every been issued yet about the Bentley crash at the Niagara Falls border crossing, has it?

Electric automobiles are about a hundred years too soon, maybe more than that.

“Dang it.”

Correct. Bentley’s mistake. You don’t buy a Bentley for its cost of operation. The electric powertrain would give it fantastic, impressive acceleration. You don’t drive Bentleys very far because you have your Gulfstream for that.

EV plans as global adoption grows slower than many expected.

Yes the slow ones are the last to get it why things fail.

Why any company would have ever, ever, ever entertained “all electric” as a corporate roadmap should have its leadership TOSSED OUT IMMEDIATELY... PERIOD.

Of course the fact that EV sales world wide are stalling might, possibly, have been a factor in stopping production. The old law of supply and demand.

It’s like summer vacation and they’re all in line to jump off the ledge into the river pool below.

The first few landed in the deep water and made it look like fun, like anyone could do it, too. You know, “Here, hold my beer and watch this!”

Unfortunately, the last few have landed headfirst on the rocks hidden just below the surface or in the shallow water and they all broke their necks.

Suddenly, it doesn’t look like fun anymore. It just looks dumb and dangerous and back down the hill they come.
