About every 4-5 years we have winter weather where I live that leaves hundreds of people stranded on the highway overnight. A number of them run out of gas because they keep their car running so they have heat.
Right now, a truck can distribute gas cans and get everyone moving the next morning pretty quickly, but I'm waiting for there to be a bunch of electric cars stuck with no way to get them moving. As a bonus, they'll be blocking the gas powered cars, preventing them from leaving too.
It will take people dying before the lesson is learned. Everything about electric vehicles is retarded.
Oh no, even when people die, no lessons will be learned. They'll just say that the 1000 deaths are nothing compared with the million death worldwide due to traffic.
As for retardation, not quite everything. I'm pretty sure there are enough engineers here who can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that electrical engines are less complicated and more robust than combustion engines. I'd be most concerned about the fire hazard.
the concept of a good EV exists. A good alternative engine in general exists... in the hands of a competent engineer and competent company.
but
what we get is what is only allowed by governments and pushed by their business partner scammers. we're not allowed good, functional products
This seems to be an issue that encompasses far more than vehicles unfortunately...
