History re-learned...
“Let’s do it AGAIN!!”
Electric vehicles are powered by fossil fuels in a POWER plant somewhere;
so where are the savings?
“Great Leap Forward’’.
There’s a good idea. Maybe the Green Revolution needs a few million dead kulaks.
You know, We The People’’.
“For some reason, when I read your post I had a vision of the photo where Al Gore is bending over sticking his face into the barrel of his M-16. Some things never change.”
LOL! Indeed!

Any industry getting subsidies is, by definition, not economically viable on is own. Some facts are just too obvious.

We burned a bonfire today. The nearby trees enjoyed the yummy Carbon dioxide.
Laws?
I don’t need no steekin’ LAWS!!
If you really want to use EVs on a mass scale you need to be fanatical about expanding and upgrading the electric grid.
Good luck with that.
In much of the turd world, the most popular vehicle is the “tuktuk” — 3 wheels, 2 cycle / 1 cylinder motor.
Bahahahahah poor battery humpers can’t hardly give their crap away lol
More Model Ys sold than Ford F-Series?

From the cheap child labor used to strip mine the planet of precious metals for battery humpers to feel better about themselves
I couldn’t see the climbing down without a least doubling down 6 more times
A Prius doesn't do that. Or, perhaps only the latest models do.
Most of the Prius'es use both the electric and combustion engine in a tandem pair to propel the car, not all that different than some of those monster trucks that have more than one engine working in tandem.
The only one I know of (I bet there are others) with an actual generator was the first generation Chevy Volt. Other than at a high rate of speed, the motor was exclusively a power generator no different than the power generator you keep in your garage only for situations when the power is out. The combustion engine in the Volt was only used for driving purposes above 70mph.
If you always stayed below 70mph, the first generation Volt is a 100% purely electric car with a generator, just like a train.

“Not enough electricity generated to charge all EVs”.
BMW just announced a Hydrogen powered car FOR THIS YEAR! 2024...
Pollution limited to water vapor.
We may all be compelled to wear masks in order to protect ourselves against respiratory illnesses and they will ban the use of EVs altogether. Only Greta,John Kerry and Al Gore will know. It is suicidal that we allow these clowns to control mankind’s future.
“In much of the turd world, the most popular vehicle is the “tuktuk” — 3 wheels, 2 cycle / 1 cylinder motor.”
Can confirm with eye watering accuracy; that was the case but the air pollution is horrendous. All new tuks are four stokes and most are CNG or LPG fueled in India, Thailand and other Asian megacites now by law. The turnover time is short on a two cycle engine the four strokes pay for themselves via increase fuel.economy and double the ring/bearing lifespans. Still the triwheel is queen , king is still two wheelers also four stokes now. You can’t go two feet in India, Thailand or Vietnam and not be next to a motorbike. LPG is near perfect fuel for a trike dense clean and cheap. You can make it via fermentation to please the greens or go the electrofuel route and literally make from thin air or seawater. Another company has a nonthermal plasma process that directly converts methane and ethane into propane and butane with excess H2 as a CO product the later two are liquids at under 120psi in plastic tanks. CH4 has two extra H vs CH3H6/8 or C4H8/12 alkanes vs alkenes . Hydrogen is valuable by itself for a slew of uses it’s worth more per Kg than either the propane or butane.
