“Automakers from Ford Motor and General Motors to Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans,” reports CNBC.

The headline says it all: “EV euphoria is dead. Automakers are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans.”

Yeah, there’s a shock.

Gee, why-oh-why would people not want to purchase a super-expensive vehicle that can take more than an hour to charge — and that’s if you can find a charging station?

For years, the automotive industry has been in a state of EV euphoria. Automakers trotted out optimistic sales forecasts for electric models and announced ambitious targets for EV growth. Wall Street boosted valuations for legacy automakers and startup entrants alike, based in part on their visions for an EV future.

Now the hype is dwindling, and companies are again cheering consumer choice. Automakers from Ford Motor and General Motors to Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Jaguar Land Rover and Aston Martin are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans.

What you quoted is from Luke 10:24 and Matt 13:17 and these were contemporaries
of Jesus describing the anticipation felt by the writers of the Old Testament.
But few knew the Cross awaited Messiah.

That’s Fascinating!

The Boiled down truth seems to me that God wants friends surrounding himself.
Identities that are comfortable with
Themselves and Others.

From what I've read, EV sales had a about a 7% US marketshare last year and California EV sales were about 25%. Tesla accounted for 55% of sales and everybody else 45%. Auto experts are expecting about the same numbers for this year..
