A newly conducted analysis predicts that sales of electric vehicles will outpace combustion vehicles by 2036 in the United States.
Ernst & Young (EY) released an analysis stating that Europe will sell more zero emission vehicles than combustion vehicles by 2028 and that threshold is expected to be reached in China in 2033 and in the U.S. in 2036.
According to EY's predictions, within the next 10 years, electric vehicles are expected to outsell combustion vehicles in the main global markets. In the next 25 years, combustion vehicles or non-electric cars are expected to only make up one percent of the global market

Right....Electric cars are great except...for.... the batteries and charging times..
“Where is all this electric coming from? “
No worries, when all the sheep are driving EV’s they will just cut the power supply so you can’t go anywhere.
Yeah well... so what?
Millions of personal generators to be sold soon, just so they can move thier car out of the driveway
Forgive me, but isn’t that too late as per AOC’s prediction of only 9 or 10 years left for humanity?
There are no zero emission vehicles. The emissions are just produced at the power stations rather by the vehicle directly.
Since we’ll all be underwater by then...perhaps submarines will be the preferred vehicle. /s
This is confusing to me. EVs have a small place in transportation, but going totally to EVs seems not well thought out.
The load on the grid.
The load on Lithium mines.
Mileage on a single charge.
Charging times.
Cost.
I suppose the manufacturers have determined that the indoctrinated are numerous, and will buy EVs no matter what because it “saves the planet”.
Just like our march to communism, this won’t end well.
and they’re death traps
—”Where is all this electric coming from? “
AOC and Joe the jamoke have that covered!
Not to worry.
All manufacturing and any other sources of pollution will be done in China.
No additional power sources are needed.
Most if not all predictions, 15 years out are clickbait.
BULLSHIT!!
Yes, of course. The greenies will demand it. But the power to charge them will not be there. So by 2037 horse-drawn cars will be all the rage.
this is my thought, too, as California has blackouts because of too much demand. Third world country $hi... and yet they are continuing to go down that road with no plan.
That means that if you think of your gas tank as a battery that stores energy, and if you think of the pump of a generator that is the source of that energy, the gas pump is the equivalent of a Diesel engine capable of powering a freight locomotive.
That's equivalent mechanical energy. I'm not counting the thermal waste energy, because that's basically the same whether your car engine is generating the shaft power, or some electric power plant somewhere is generating the shaft power.
So now, think of this: if it were possible to load a full charge into a car battery as fast as the tank can be filled from a normal gas pump, and if the battery could hold as much equivalent mechanical energy as does the gas tank in your car, you would need the generating capacity of a 4000 hp Diesel for every pump in every gas station. That power generation capacity would have to be there 24-7 for every gas station in the country.
“Just like our march to communism, this won’t end well.”
Either EVs become very expensive, or electricity will. There’s no other way if we go down this path.
We don’t have the juice or the raw materials.
But like you, I don’t see this ending well.
The way it’s going, horses and bicycles will outsell autos by then.
Horses are too advanced.
Rather oxen’s for the rich.
The poor will have to pull their cars themselves!

More power to them
