One problem with EV’s, among many, is the tires and their price. The EV is heavier and requires tires for the load range so they’re pricier. A lot of older parking garages are posting prohibiting EV’s because the building wasn’t designed for the extra weight. One of the car shows put the three hosts in EV’s and within the first few minutes each one became worried about having enough range and where they could charge up if needed. Add in the fact that even a minor accident will total the car if the battery pack is damaged at all. You don’t repair the battery pack, you replace it. Stories are piling up about EV’s in salvage yards suddenly igniting even if they were untouched for weeks. We don’t have the capacity to recycle the batteries yet either. The time for the EV is not here yet.
