LMAO@ *******s who actually think el motors will replace ICE anytime soon

Where do I start?

The energy density of Li-ion batteries is pathetic. The technology is pretty much peaked and a full tank of fossil fuel fares better than a half ton battery. The battery degrades with time and takes 10 fkin hours to fully recharge.

The battery itself - the cathodes of Li-ion batteries are made out of cobalt, which is a mineral considered critical - it's both vital and scarce. Most of the world's cobalt comes from the fkin Congo (over 70%) and the price for a ton is more volatile than bitcoin ranging from 25k to 80k EUR in just the last 5 years. Not even going into the lithium mines thing, the cars are basically zero pollution at the point of use only.

Meanwhile ICEs are becoming ever more efficient and eco-friendly. Formula 1 is making strides in sustainable bio and synthetic fuels.

Also who was aviation, trucks, cargo transport, maritime transport, and all that tractor and agricultural diesel chit which is supposed to be replaced by what exactly?

The legislation around Europe is also done by fkin morons with severe cases of wishful thinking and technical illiteracy. Take Norway for example - they plan to ban fossil fuelled cars in less than a decade, yet they recently found a chit load of petrol and have started working on getting their ****gy liberal hands on it. LMAO hypocrites

Gonna laugh my azz off when they start postponing to 2040, then 2050, 2060.

JUST LMAO SON

Won't be a problem when you're alotted 30 miles a day not including commute.


25 cents a mile for anything over your allotment, brah.
The closer we approach the uncertainty of life's ending the more we wish to trade all of the things we have acquired in exchange for all of the things we have lost: wealth for youth, knowledge for fresh curiosity, resignation for hope. We'd trade our wisdom for new experiences, but it is wisdom that will teach us that at the end of the road the only new experience is death.

The prices at this point are just unreachable for the average American. The Rivian trucks are going to be 100k optioned out. Even the model 3 is 56k for the top model.

We're 50 years away from this being feasible

Just lol at electric car range....

Brb driving 5 hours to Spokane from Western WA. Having to stop half way to find a charging station, wait in like for an hour, then charge for 2 hours just lmao.

5 hour trip turns into an 8 or 9 hour drive.

And thats not even the back country/forest service roads in rural America. Couldn't even go camping anymore because not enough battery.

The optimism and euphoria will meet reality sooner or later, feels like it has already faded quite a bit since people were heralding the end of oil because the world locking down dropped oil demand from 100million barrels per day to 90million barrels per day
