I want one that will go 400 miles on a charge and recharge in 15 minutes while I take a pee and buy a soft drink.

If EVs are so exciting and desirable, why are they subsidized by taxpayer money and being mandated by the government while the government is working to regulate and ban the EV competition?

Electric gold karts and “exciting” are a very humorous combo.

Though, the virtue signal cultists may get a tinkle down their leg.

Yes, I look forward to bankrupting myself having to buy more expensive cars more frequently because their battery doesn’t last as long as a combustion engine and the battery is the most expensive part of the car.

Many of these EVs are not being produced now, just a promise that they’ll be made years from now. And in small numbers, if at all. All promise to be Tesla killers, but promises mean nothing because Tesla will be stronger and better in the few years before these other promised models are even sold. Only a couple can give Tesla a run for the money, perhaps Lucid, VW and Nissan (their Ariya competes with Model Y).

They’ll last until hydrogen powered cars take over.

Pass.
Try taking one of those cars, not SUVs, out in 12” of snow.
I’ll stay with my Jeep GC HEMI.

It’s gonna be pretty damned funny watching people with No Electricity trying to figure out how to charge their car up. 10 years at best til the power runs dry, at least in the west

Electric Hummer with 4 motors. I would buy one right now if it was available and if I had the money. I love my little Kona Electric from Hyundai.

With current technology the only way you are going to solve the range issue is with hydrogen fuel cells. That requires an infrastructure that isn’t there yet. I think a lot of this is just wishful thinking from the eco-warrior crowd. As for me I’m gonna keep buying rusty old pickups with solid mechanicals. Less expensive to run and maintain. I don’t drive very far so gas cost is a minimal concern.

All of them are the same, about a 50 mile range in winter and uphill.
