EV cars are sitting on new car lots on average for over a year now!

[MarathonMike]

Consumer reports sticks another spear into the EV bull (see what I did there?). They are less reliable than similar ICE vehicles. So you get to pay a lot more, for a lot less range, the hassle of charging AND they are not very reliable. All the government subsidies and mandates and the EV industry is going belly up. The consumer is finally waking up from Wokeness.

Electric vehicles have proved far less reliable, on average, than gasoline-powered cars, trucks and SUVs, according to the latest survey by Consumer Reports, which found that EVs from the 2021 through 2023 model years encountered nearly 80% more proble...

Everyone knows that sitting around unused, uncharged is very bad for any battery. So now with an EV, you get to pay the full, very high retail price for a car that is already a year old, and a battery that has sat around in the lot for over a year before you even drive it off the lot?

I DON'T THINK SO.

You don't know what you are talking about. My daughter just bought a hybrid Accord, and she got the rebate.

Hey dumbass... I was referring to non plug in hybrids that charge with your gas engine like the popular Honda and Toyota BMW line of cars... not everyone can put a charging station in their home... so Biden should include non plug in hybrid cars too...



too...

You got a problem with hybrids?

Their owners are the ones having problems. Too bad, that was actually a good idea towards a possible transition. Liberals mucked that all up with their zero emissions demands.

We are not ready for the EVs. Already, Musk's power car charging fields with many charging stations need supplemental diesel powered generators. The charging stations vary greatly as to the 'handshake' needed in order to have the station recognize your car and many stations were found to be faulty and out of order. Right now it looks like commuters like them but, they buy the cheapest. With Ford cutting back on the production of EVs (due to lack of demand) the EV market is collapsing. If it were not for Government incentives and subsidies, "EVs for all" is just not viable. IMO infrastructure is really lacking.

I did see a Tesla semi that was really cool. After listening to their spiel, the last thing they said was that EV semi delivery trucks that have established routes would be ideal because recharging could be accurately scheduled.

The news on TV a little while ago said that EV sales are down 50%! That is a lot.

All these people that bought these L-I EVs now realize how shitty they are.
