biking and walking will also be popular “options”
i am sure they will outlaw donkey carts
but uber rickshaws will be a popular side hustle
They catch on fire, have heavy batteries which injure and kill the occupants of the vehicles they crash into, the lithium and other components come from China, and where is the electricity coming from to power these not so ecologically sound vehicles?

we joke here, but the chink-o-nese seriously imprison their people in their own homes.
biden wants us to live like this, and reliance on the power grid for everything is a big step.
I agree, and the goal is not to convert our private vehicles from gasoline/diesel to electric - it is to eliminate privately-owner vehicles.
You have to drive an EV 80,000 miles before you have a net positive against an ICE vehicle.
Sir yes shur. *buys crappy EV car with $30,000 lithium battery*
Gas-powered cars are cheaper and better.
Even Toyota as many others has built a hydrogen powered pick up EV autos are not as efficient hydrogen only one emission water.
a win win deal
I have read several articles over the years, which of course are becoming more difficult to find now. The estimates ranged between 6 an 8 times the energy inputs of an ICE. However, a quick search finds the International Energy Agency (IEA) calculates that an electric vehicle requires six times the mineral inputs of a comparable internal combustion engine vehicle (ICE).
EV batteries are very heavy and made with exotic, expensive, toxic, and flammable materials.
Without the subsidies, there wouldn’t be a fraction of the EVs currently in use.
The auto industry just didn’t suddenly decide to phase out ICE vehicles. It did so through unholy alliances with our masters in Wash DC. IOW classic fascism: industry/government partnership that serves the financial interests of industry and the societal deforming interests of the Left.
“Things have gone so far that the EU recently announced they would ban the sale of new fossil fuel cars from 2035. Meanwhile Britain has gone even further and are banning new normal cars from the year 2030. That is only 7 years away.

>>>Now Switzerland is planning on banning people from driving their electric cars when there is an energy shortage.”<<<
‘Now they want to ban electric cars to save energy.’

BS again. Does that help? I don’t need to write a paper about it...
You just cannot get around the fact that batteries weight 13 times more than liquid hydrocarbon fuels to store the same amount of energy. Research brings that 13X down maybe 0.5 to 1.0% per year, if that. But that improvement is diminishing.
