EV's have a place in the future. The current ones do not, they are likely just step 1 of a 3 or 4 step process in EV vehicle development. My guess is that 5+ years down the line no one would consider the current generation of EV Vehicles, and that the current generation will not have much (if barely any) used car market and will almost certainly be junked by 10 years of age (and most sooner than that). As a comparison: The average ICE vehicle last 26 years before being junked.

YES of course they are IF we want a future at all. Of course ICEs could go the route of finding environmentally friendly fuels that replace fossil fuels, but so far they have no intention of that; so yes OBVIOUSLY EVs are the future. To drive that point across new types of EV batteries are being developed that would provide faster charges, longer range, and be far less contaminant than lithium. Even more, as it is China has already created an EV that charges in 10 min and has a range greater than that of the average ICE. To all that we add how big a leap technological leap EVs have made in a matter of less than 10 years, so the speed of their technological advancement is surpassing that of ICEs. so again YES , HELL YES, EVs are the future.

So true there, the government mandates for EVs is utterly moronic. Does not help that the government is also the biggest purchaser of EVs as well. Therefore, the actual market of EVs is much smaller than any of these companies think it is. If anything, the EV market will shrink while the ICE and Hybrid models continue to grow and actually sell.

I might have this completely wrong but to me once a buyer has decided on what type of vehicle they want to purchase and what price bracket they’re in, one of they’re next main criteria must surely be the look/design of the vehicle. All the main manufacturers tend to want to make their electric offering look different from the ice equivalent, why not have it look exactly the same but with a different power train.

No one can afford to buy them or maintain them or insure them. 🤷🏻‍♂️😂😂😂😂

I don't think most people would want to rely on certain countries (CN, RU) when it comes to supplying raw materials for batteries, batteries or other parts for EVs. Even tires production should be shared across the world. I had to wait for months for my tires, so I had to buy used from eBay until the new tires arrived. In a global economy this is not what customers want.

No EV could compete with my new Rota-MAX Rotary Engine design.

Car companies have gone to high tech and think people have endless supply of money to pay for high priced technicians. We need easy fixable cars that can be repaired easily with out special computers and highly trained technicians. The mantra reduce, reuse and recycle does not mean anything in the automotive world today. They produce cars that are unrepairable and the parts that can be repaired are too expensive.

A mechanic should check the used hybrid, but without a paper record most sellers overestimate their care for the hybrid. Lots of motor failures in Prius.

People say Toyota was wise to be cautious. But the real question is why were Mercedes-benz, GM, or Ford so convinced that consumers would choose EVs. All they needed to do was ask their existing customers on what suits their lifestyles, budget, and preferences.

Cold weather disasters.

Some really interesting points raised in this chat. I have to agree with most ICE are just far better, plus with the reaserch into alternative clean burning fuels that are cleaner why in the fuck would I buy a stupid ev. The fact most cars can be modified to burn hydrogen and with the development of ammonia fuel gaining momentum, I just don't see a future for evs given the problems with charging and energy density of battery tech.

Basically- In the real world; the arse dropped out of the second-hand EV market when people realized that a replacement battery was more expensive than the car itself... MB buyers look on it as an investment (sort of). Buy what you can afford, and then upgrade as you can. This relies heavily on being able to sell the old one at a not considerable loss. But in reality- you cant do this with an EV. They are dead money, a financial boat anchor, and no-one is THAT stupid.

"Why can't we just force people to buy $80,000 cars?" "Why don't they just buy one or borrow the money from a rich relative?" I can't afford their high priced, limited use, non resell able, and disposable vehicles. Battery replacement costing 1/3 the price of the car. You may get 10 years out of them if they don't blow up first.

Mercedes EV sales in 2023 increased by 61%. Just check the annual report. These people are modifying facts just to fit their narrative.

Lol. Manufacturers have realized that auto sales are low! Lol. They are not selling the cars they had hoped to sell. They have to cancel their expensive plans. High interest rates and a consumer base that is more interested in higher-tech features. Stale old designs don't sell anymore. Their traditional market is not selling, and they make a profit only on their ICE cars. They do not make enough EVs to turn a profit, so they have to either A) start building enough EVs that they can turn a profit. B) Return to selling only 100-year-old technology. They have chosen. China is the largest car market and right now more than 40% of car sales are EVs. Global EV sales will be about 25% this year. If your company does not produce at least 25% EVs as their mix of cars there is no reason to think they will survive - they are producing ICE cars that nobody wants. The best estimates we have now are that the world has produced an excess of about 5-6 million cars that will not sell this year. About 90% of these excess vehicles are ICE. About 5 million excess ICE vehicles and another third of a million are mostly hybrids. The same thing is happening with GM - 139 days of inventory... their production is about 5 months ahead of sales. They seem to be adding a week of excess each month. These guys will have to close ICE factories and cancel shipments of materials because they are so far ahead. They cancel their battery orders and those companies still need to sell them - Tesla says "thank you" because they can buy them at a huge discount. This is what it looks like when you lose a price war.

avoid this poor quality company. been a Mercedes mechanic for 29 years now. they pay their mechanics very poor wages to work on your car.

I am surprise how very few, specially amongst trade market so called “experts” (more than amongst true automotive market analysts like Toyota has some good ones), saw it coming, the current market collapse for EV’s. I guess each factor affecting negatively the EV market taken individually (Nord Stream, Li price, surplus on the used market, etc) did not appear significant enough to many of our experts ….Even adding up together the few identified problems and with business as usual, this could be easily offset again by even more lies and toxic massive propaganda fooling the natives to purchase fast devaluation junk... In reality, those factors DID NOT just add up, they all work “in synergy” to multiply their global negative impact…and this is the crisis we are facing right now: 14 mio EV’s in 2023, 17 mio foreseen for 2024 in 2023…and such a so disastrous Q1 2024 sales total that the 3 mio extra for the year is already lost!!! Meanwhile no. 1 goes from 3.5 millions hybrids sales in 2023 to 5 millions in a 2024, a monstrous 43% growth rate without dropping the prices either while winning the ACEEE 2024 greenest car award with a PHEV and ranking first and better than Tesla on overall GP in 2023. Attracted like honeybees by those sweet « good old suv profit margins levels » the copy-paste followers like BYD, Honda and Mazda became also suddenly found of a massive hybridation…but they are still far behind….to bad to be late surfing the big wave, because much ahead of time, the whole BEV market collapse could be foreseen…the day a stupid Karen realises that carrying 1000 pounds of battery over 5 miles to get 20 pounds of groceries at the nearby supermarket and being unable to do anything else useful with the not cheap coal wagon, it got a bit too much….the total domestic gigantic electric tricky waste…So, for the poor “startups” with only BEV’s in the pipeline and new unfinished factories to reimburse fast….it’s getting Frisker outside!!! the layoff sanctions are immediate. For all of them, it smells 🌲 🌲 🌲 even without much of the Californian and Oregon forests on 🔥 🔥 🔥 . LOL……😂😂😂

$25k ev Car. Hell yeah

An EV is much dirtier than a normal car with benzine

I believed they were good for the environment. Yes, they are good for the ‘LOCAL’ environment, as they don’t spew pollutants into city air. But the electrical grid still causes pollution from coal and natural gas and nuclear waste will always be an issue.

We want V10 😂

Although I despise the nonsense and prostitution of the industry with its SUVs front-wheel drive/17cm ground clearance or laziness fed by the automatic gearbox or engines made on the knee in 3 Pistons, I could have all these at any time in my life as long as they have under the hood the Holy freedom offered by the heat engine. Therefore, because I do not want a cashless society in the digital-climateric dungeon-social credit score, I will never have any kind of crematorium "electric car" (of whatever kind it is, even more so on batteries) and I will never climb into this automobile abortion. Never.

The progression of who generally wants EVs is a bit of an odd one. First you get the wealthy first adopters willing to pay 100k plus for a car with Honda civic build quality car with more issues so long as that is an electric car. Next you get largely tech savvy engineering types who are willing to put up with the downside sides to have a high tech car. Now family cars that kids love and parents like the safety of. Yes by the stats they are safer than gas cars despite what fear mongers say. Currently the group who really want EVs are younger people with not a lot of money wanting a very cheap one as a mostly daily commuter. What is interesting is outside of Tesla other car companies seem to think use what works with gas cars and apply to EVs. And they end up constantly trying to sell to groups of customers that don’t exist.

BS. The wealthy do not use electric clunkers. The electric clunkers are very polluting (starting with the mining of different raw materials and ending more than 93% without recycling - despite what some like Redwood claim, because the recycling is very expensive vs. production, just like for photovoltaic panels), very expensive, unreliable (Tesla, their champion barely made it to #17 in Consumer Reports annual reliability surveys), dangerous, impractical, disposable (their battery cost almost as a new car) and very controllable. And the high reliability and the low TCO are the main requests from the smart consumers.

I like my battery powered drill. But in the last 10 years I’ve replaced the batteries 3 times. I’ve essentially purchased the drill several times over. Show me a battery powered ANYTHING that is 10 years old and still works as it should. I’ll show you a garage full of ICE cars, mowers, saws, trimmers, blowers, snowblowers, and generators that are over ten years old and work as new. EVs and their batteries will soon be an environmental landfill disaster.

Accurate for the short term, on the long term with more range, public stations and reduced maintenance ev will be predominant. Never underestimate the progress that can happen in one decade or more.

It's likely going to take at least 1 and perhaps 2 decades for the EV companies to accomplish that. In the meantime they are turning off most people with their maintenence, charging issues, and the requirements for battery replacements - espeically for used cars (there is virtually no used car market for used EVs). The average ICE vehicle lasts 26 years before being junked. At this point there is no evidence that any EV will last beyond 10 years without expensive battery replacement (at least once if not more times than that). Due to accidents affecting batteries the insurance industry junks EVs if the battery affected at all.
