Keep fighting as the world changes around you Colin.
Might be nice not to hear the garbage trucks at 6am? Similar trucks already operating overseas.
I’m glad you’re so concerned that they might run out of power half way along their route. Lol.
Bigger picture.

And again with the “costing more”...?

What part of cost parity don’t you understand?

Are you still trying to tell us that the costs aren’t dropping continuously for batteries, battery packs, motors, controllers etc..?

Cost parity. It is the tipping point for mass adoption and the inflection point in the hockey stick. Adoption starts earlier of course due to other factors, but “everyone wants one” when they become cheaper too. Due in Europe in a couple of years and elsewhere soon after.
Yes there’ll be a few exceptions but that’s fine - it certainly won’t stop the evolution.

You know you can go drive a Tesla for free and with no sales pressure ..? Go see what the future is about. Go on, you might just like it.

You do know that for most (almost all) people, a Tesla 3 style of vehicle that simply tops up charge at home overnight is absolutely practical in terms of range and charging..? What do you think will happen when a corolla/golf style of EV comes out for $30k, costs a couple of dollars per hundred kms to charge, has minimal servicing and maintenance costs, and is quieter, cleaner and more high-tech than ever??

Tell us what the average km driven per day is and then tell us again how this whole EV thing just won’t really happen !!

Seriously.
Are you getting paid to generate traffic/responses or something..?

It’s fine if EVs don’t initially suit a small number of people. It will have basically zero effect on what is unfolding.


...Should I tell the brewery down the road that they’re doomed just because I don’t like beer?
