I think some guy who ran Toyota figured that out and was criticized. They now say he was late to the EV parade but will have a superior product for part of their fleet.
What gets me in those in the UAW who cannot see their jobs are heading to China. There maybe some assembly work in the US left but not much else. But I guess there is a bright side. They can get into infrastructure repair to accommodate the damage by the weighty EVs!
I think it was Hillary Clinton who told the coal miners they needed to learn to code. I’m trying to teach a challenged 26-year-old to learn to drive. If you don’t have the capacity for something, it’s going to be hard to switch from car assembly to infrastructure repair. There’s that normal IQ distribution curve again. The guys on the left side of it will have a hard time learning anything new.
