When will this board be EV dominated?
>>28649211Never.Appliance drivers don’t care enough to shitpost about their cars (though they do get into autistic shitflinging matches, but the appliance they’re driving is incidental)ICE vehicles have a soul, EVs don’t. Prove me wrong.
>>28649225The ICEV is an appliance. Prove me wrong.
>>28649225Why do ICE fags all pose as if they're professional race drivers? Statistically you most likely drive some Ford Fiesta 100hp shitbox that barely gets you to your daily dose of tendies. EVs are a million times more fun than the average ICE car.
>>28649211This board is too poorfag for EV. Give it another five years and you'll see most fags around here driving one as it is economically more viable than an ICE car, and also way more fun and practical. But we're still too early for true mass market adoption. EV is still more expensive than ICE. Once EVs hit poorfag territory, you'll see /o/ consensus change.
>>28649211when gen alpha (forget about gen z, they're too busy taking female hormones) come of age and start buying cars.
>>28649344>too poorfag for EV2nd hand Teslas are now sub 10 grand in the UK. /o/ will be rocking them soon.
>>28649348>Model SYeah sure and add another 10 grand for motor swaps. Still that's a really good price, very low mileages.
>>28649211Probably never.Performance hybrids will probably become commonplace among sports cars in a decade or two, and one of mild/plug-in/full hybrids will be the default appliance car setup for decades to come
>>28649356>motor swapsI'm more worried about the longevity of the battery packs, although I do see 2nd hand Teslas for sale with big miles, so maybe I'm worrying about nothing.
>>28649344>fastback by HyundaiI feel like I'm in the damn looney bin.
>>28649366Yes the batteries in these old Teslas are pretty dodgy. Tesla prior to 2021 is in general a huge gamble. Sometimes the owner has swapped the battery within warranty which increases the value of the car of course.
>>28649362Hybrid isn't the future. I'd rather have pure ICE over hybrid. The former has way better longevity than a 1kWh battery that is bound to shit itself after 60k miles.
>>28649211~10-15 years after they stop selling new ICE vehicles, by then most of the used ones will have filtered out and only the autists who religiously maintain their vehicles will have them
>>28649211I've been EV pilled for years now. I bought a 2020 Model S Performance and it's great. Sometimes I think about upgrading to a Plaid but really 750hp is enough a daily driver.
>>28649211Already has been for years.Its only the poorest of fags who are crying about EVs.The world has moved on
>>28649236All cars are appliances, prove me wrong.
>>28649341and that 100hp fiesta shitbox will rape your mastodon in any turn
>>28649356These things are going to give poorfags a whole new lease on life.They may finally be able to participate in our little hobby.
>>28649225You mean you drive a car with a lawn mower engine? Are you Mexican?
>>28649211>drive PHEV>decide if I want to drive EV or ICE>gas prices high? HA have fun normies>ran out of electricity? Just switch to gas>have insane range and can do roadtripsBruh these are multifuel engines don't sleep on em, why limit yourself to one type of fuel? That makes it a monopoly and why gas prices are so damn high.
>>28649225Horses have a soul. Cars dont. Prove me wrong
>>28650649It's just such an incredibly specific usecase. "I both don't drive enough that I can get by on just the battery but also I need to drive so much so often that I need the range and refueling speediness of a gas tank".
>>28649225Saying any car has "soul" is gay. You are the male equivalent of a girl that is into designer purses. You are the same because a 2 dollar grocery bag can carry your stuff but instead you spend hundreds of dollars for a useless status symbol. Similarly retards like the majority of this board glorify what is just a means of transportation.>but why are you on this boardto say things like this
>>28649211>EV output>2023 projectionsCompletly out of date OP
>>28649211U S posters will become more likely than not to own an EV about 20 years after EV sales exceed ICE sales. This will probably happen faster in Europe, Upsidedowistan and India. India in particular is making up a larger fraction of 4chan posters each year. My prediction therefore is circa 2040.
>>28650688Yeah, they heavily underestimated EVs and they're now selling way better than predicted.
>>28649225>Appliance drivers don’t care enough to shitpost about their carsand they don't care about soul. They want A to B that is modern, cheap and reliable. This guy is right >>28649344
>>2864922599% of ICEVs are 1.2 3 cylinder FWD shitboxes
>>28650790Boldest lie I've ever seen. Are any of those even sold in the US?
>>28650649>drive PHEV>have double the costly drive systems in a single car>I'm alone in my bad decision and the lead time for parts is getting longer at an alarming ratePHEVs are behind hydroLEL in the extinction queue. The only application which will remain are serial hybrid heavy equipment and trucks. Parallel hybrids and small passenger hybrid cars are not long for this world.
>>28650488>but really 750hp is enough a daily driver.Really???
>>28650649I own a PHEV and yet I consider PHEV redundant technology. If you can charge at home, get an EV. If you can't charge at home, get regular ICE. I do get good tax breaks with PHEV though and it's still way cheaper than full EV but hybrid technology is not a long term solution.
>>28650873I think so. 0-60 in 2.5 seconds is the fun part. I don't think it's as important what the 60-120 time is.
>>28650893That sounds way too slow to fetch my groceries.
LET'S GET THIS SHIT STARTED>OP
>>28650793whatever broin america most cars are fwd 4 cylinders absolutely soulless cars
>>28649225Stupid take. I'll build both my two-jizz with ITBs and an old fwd civic with an EV swap. Both have sovl
>>28649225>>28649211It will be all about hacking the firmware on Chinese electric cars/scooters/bicycles. See any 3d printer board from ten years ago before the 3d printing industry matured.The biggest block to EV fandom is the cars are all closed-source and the manufacturers are hyper-controlling. (ICE carmakers are controlling moneyfags as well, but EV divisions take to the next level.)
>>28650740>And China is teh world leader. And Solar as well. As it should be, China has been the dominate economic power of this planet for thousands of years, the period between Showa and the now being a mere blip in the continuity of history.
Take your meds.
