>>28700420
Here's the thing. I don't have the equipment to refuel or recharge a car at my house, I have to do it elsewhere. With a normal vehicle, I put my 10 gallons in at the station in 5 minutes and I'm good to go for three round trip commutes. And that fuel takes me pretty much the same distance whether it's 95 degrees or -10 degrees.
With a new base model Nissan Leaf, I can't do one round trip commute in the winter.

>>28700691
>in any weather
is the key factor there. To get 200 miles of real world range in -10 weather you need something with an epa rating of like 350-400 miles (which it'll never hit even in perfect conditions cause it's acceptable to just lie on the spec sheet)

That's just poorfag cope, and Big Oil FUD.
The firm I work for runs a fleet of Teslas and our sales team drive all over the country in them.
Most get about 400 miles on a full charge and our fleet management system confirms this.
In the real world Teslas have pretty damn good range, as well as performance and that improves with updates and as new models arrive.
The team love them, and they could choose an ice if they wanted, but literally nobody wants one when they have the choice.
What it looks like is the only people who are upset about EVs are the ones who are enturbulated about not being able to afford one.

>>28701550
Actually, what i wrote is true. We are ISO compliant and independently audited.
For this reason we use Zoom meetings where possible, but due to the nature of our work our people have to be on client's sites regularly.
Teslas are perfect for this compliance, and they also save us a pile of money on gas.
Not to mention our team love them.
When we first started making the switch over, we had a combination of Teslas and older executive cars and everyone wanted the Teslas. Now our fleet is going strong and we will rotate new ones in as they get too old.
The mileage and performance is fantastic.

For short range i'd probably be down for EV, but for roadtrips I'd keep to hybrid until Elon deploys massive charger stations on parity with the number of gas pumps across rural america. Too many times I passed places where there was only 1 or 2 chargers and people were already at them, i'd be way too annoyed with that shit. I already saw he's building massive stations for chargers in Cali. I'll wait until 2030-2035 to reevaluate it.

Brother. I'm russian. I know everything about snow. I also personally know the first guys who brought the first Teslas into the country (including the one who put an interior from the 7-series into one). They lost range from cold batteries, they lost range from having to warm your balls up, they lost range even from just the studded winter tires, as we've found when we swapped to them too early. Any deviation from average California conditions, and they lose range.
A modern 400 km Tesla is good enough, you can slash its range in half and still drive all week without having to find a charger. A fucking Leaf does not survive the winter unless you have a personal charger at home. Most people here live in apartaments with street parking, and most who don't either don't have the electrical infrastructure for more than just wall plug power or/and live far enough from civilisation that they actually need all 400 km of range and more to make it work (yeah, by the way, nobody drives the speed limit here, and surprise, a Tesla barreling at 180+ km/h from a rich guy's forest retreat to Moscow does not have 400 km of range. ain't nobody got time for hypermiling).
You wanna know another funny thing? These fucking failures. They have never been sold here new, and yet they were relatively popular to import from ze germans (until ze germans decided that they don't want roubles). Drive around town on electric power, drive out of town and during winter on infinite range from the generator, siphon electricity from every wall (by questionably legal means), pay tiny taxes, it's super cheap to own 'round here. And it is, surprisingly, stupidly reliable. Actually well-built, unlike Tesla. If you wonder where all of these guys went, we have them. Opel Amperas too, though those suck.

>you want pussy?

>>28701734
>I'm just going to repeat the same phrase and undefined acronym over and over to make me appear authoritative and legitimate
Listen, you might find range anxiety and spending a half hour at a charger every other day to be an immersive part of the experience but I don't. I don't hang out at gas stations anymore than I absolutely have to. If it's not capable of doing what literally any normal car can do any day in any weather it's not a viable replacement. I've looked at something like a Volt because it's an electric with a range extender engine - but they have a price premium on them because everyone else likes that about them too. I've owned a first gen Prius before. I'm not allergic to new things, I just don't want to pay more to get less.
>just get an at-home charger
House only has 100amp service, garage doesn't have power running to it at all. It would cost more than what the electric car would ever save me in gas to upgrade the house, run power to the garage, and then get a level 2 charger.

The idea is that you don't need a gun because there aren't feral brown gorillas, you don't need a house because apartaments and surrounding areas actually provide the things you need, and you don't need a car because there's good public transport. But in practice, they are trying to take things away before they give you replacements, because we elected talentless hacks.

I mean, Japan decided that they don't need guns (and swords) in the 40s, and look where they are- some of the lowest crime rates in the world in a country packed like sardines. Not just because they have no guns, but also because of a well-educated general population, they work in tandem to create an extremely safe country with neither inscentive, will or means to crime.
Meanwhile, USA refuses to educate their black population and make all of them upstanding members of society, because americans are fucking racist and want to hate someone. Send all the niggers to medical schools and see how crime plummets.

>>28701901
Japan has a mostly homogeneous population. The foreigners that are there commit a disproportionate amount of crimes.
blacks in America commit a disproportionate amount of crime. The public schools with the most black students are the ones that get the most funding to try and educate them. It doesn't work. I'll remind you that they had to redefine the limit for mental retardation from 85 iq to 75 iq, because at 85 over 50% of the black population would be classified as retarded. You can't teach a goldfish to do algebra, and you can't teach a black to be White. The top 5-10% of them, yes, they can be functional members of society (like Clarence Thomas). The rest of them, simply can't (like Ketanji Brown Jackson or Maxine Waters)

>>28701917
>The public schools with the most black students are the ones that get the most funding
No, it's the ones where the higher-ups steal the most money. Why do you think being a public school principal such a lurkative position? These motherfuckers make CASH on niggas' behalf. They are the guys you actually need the guns for, not for a honest nigga just trying to make ends meet because the system has failed him.

>>28701901
i'd suggest that perhaps Japan would still have incredibly low crime rates even if every one of their citizens (not imported diversity, incl whites, desu.) had firearms.
Similarly, whites in the US have very low gun crime rates. They of course skew the statistics (by 'they' i mean progressive vermin with a disarmament agenda) with suicides to muddy the waters.
It all points to a deeper problem though, if government cannot trust the citizens to behave in a somewhat decent manner, then you don't really have a country, nor a society, and you're going to wind up with a fucking police state -- because you're relying on MOMMY to coerce good behavior versus it being internalized.

>>28701931
>Japan would still have incredibly low crime rates even if every one of their citizens (not imported diversity, incl whites, desu.) had firearms.
If you read a bit of Japanese history... No, no they really wouldn't. A jap's default state is violence, violence that they have suppressed with education and channeled into productivity. Particularly the yayoi kind of japs that came from the south where all the equally violent mongols and chinks still are. Jomon are chill until provoked, but yayoi have been really fucking provocative throught history so they are also violent.

A minor ICE accident is a write-off for an EV

>>28702014
It literally does.
All those intricate, little ICEV parts, with their planned-obselesence built in, are designed to fail.
Defending that model is like a lung cancer sufferer defending big tobacco.

>>28702334
Those intricate little ICE parts were also relatively solved problems up until about ... 2010. It's partly as you noted a planned obsolescence thing, but also due to having to chase insane emissions/efficiency standards.

Its not just the intricate little parts that have been built to fail in ICEVs, lots of engines demolish themselves via timing belts or chains, or numerous other basic functions, like cooling failures etc.
And yes, manufacturers benefit from using smaller engines, it drives profit margins higher for them.
Also, ICEV engines have been blowing up forever, not just since 2010

None of those are unsolvable engineering problems, guaranteed with an ICE engine.
A late 90s early 2000s Toyota engine will outlast the rest of the car if it’s not abused or neglected. Hell even ford/chevy engines would realistically last over 200k miles. I think you missed my point about what engineering at whatever firm would want to do design wise, vs what they’re forced to do via bean counters and/or regulators.
The cost cutting and planned obsolescence issues here could just as easily apply to an EV.

Easy.
Just charge overnight while you sleep.
You actually save a bunch of time by not driving to and from gas stations, waiting in line at the gas station, the ten minutes pumping carcinogenic gas, waiting in line to pay (plus tip,) and thats not even including the money side of things.

>>28703024
>waiting in line at the gas station
In my 25 years of driving I've never had to wait in line for gas.

>>28703045
I mean, the lines at gas stations are admittedly getting shorter, as most people are buying new EVs now, and ICEV cars are being phased out.
That said, without the artificial demand for gas, there will inevitably be fewer pumps and stations, alongside higher prices, to deliver a niche product.
Think of some speciality fuels that exist already.

>>28703045
Queuing for fuel is a minefield.
You try to strategicly position yourself to see who will drive off from the pump first, while trying to remember what side your filler cap is on.
If you drive lots of different cars this is a problem.
All the while, someone who has left their car on the pump is taking a shit inside, or buying a week's worth of groceries from a gas station.

How many technical revolutions have now occured the past decade to make this possible? The comfort of driving a car and knowing there is no combustion engine to contend with is amazing.

The best thing about drives like this in a tessie, is the FSD driving for you.

1. EVs burn just as much fossil fuel over their lifetimes.
2. I'm a lefty. And an engineer. EVs are sold to people predicated on them "saving the environment" which is why I brought that up. I do care deeply about the environment and man-made global-warming is obvious.
If we went nuclear EVs would be the clear choice, but as it is they're the same as a gas car. Power plants are 25-55% efficient then there are losses in modulation, transmission, and within the EV. Then EVs weigh more than similar-sized ICE cars, F=ma.
A better solution to saving the environment is birth control.

We’re not. It’s just pointing out the naive, childlike tendency towards failing to grasp anything beyond proximal cause that progressives tend to fall into.
>I don’t see any smoke when I charge my car transportation appliance, therefore it’s zero emissions
>if we just continue to raise the minimum wage, eventually everyone will be rich
Stuff like that, basic midwit thinking.

>>28703795
EVs are a right wing phenomenon though

>>28703796
Look, you can’t be a Nazi and want to flood the country with jeets, no matter how many spicy hand gestures you make.

>>28703793
Math is wrong here fren.
Most developed countries (like china) use a lot of renewables. Even Germanistan has 50% renewables on average.
Grid scale powerplants are in their sweetspot of >50% efficiency most of the time. Gasoline Engines are almost never in that sweetspot, ESPECIALLY in city driving.
You are also ignoring regenerative breaking in your F=ma calculation. Once a speed has been reached the energy spent is mostly wind resistnace.

batteries don't even have them built in deliberately, they have planned obsolescense built into them by fundamental physics

>>28703800
didn't germoney had to ramp up coal purchases/burning to make more electricity after they shut most of their reactors down and russia stopped exporting their natural gas?

Thank you based ai
>Yes, electric cars are expected to take over the market, with many experts and car manufacturers seeing them as the future of driving, driven by government regulations and technological advancements. The transition is already underway, though it will happen gradually as EVs become more affordable and charging infrastructure improves.
Factors driving the transition
Government mandates: Many governments are setting phase-out dates for new petrol and diesel car sales, such as the UK's 2030 target for new petrol and diesel cars and 2035 for hybrids.
Manufacturer commitment: Major car manufacturers have committed to making their future lineups entirely or predominantly electric.
Technological advancements: Improvements in battery technology, vehicle range, and driving experience make EVs more appealing.
Economic factors: While upfront costs can be a barrier, EVs are generally cheaper to run, and the second-hand market for used EVs is growing, helping to increase affordability.
Lower emissions: EVs can be operated with electricity generated from renewable sources, offering a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels.

>>28703827
Yes, yes they did. They shut down ALL of their reactors. I grew up as a kid in '90s Germany (USAF), they fucked themselves in so many ways.

Yeah it's complicated but the short version is still that roughly 50% of the energy is from offshore wind and solar.

Still looks like the majority is boiling water with burning fossil fuels to me.

I literally don't care, you'd do better by making fewer babies. Plastic is made from crude oil, batteries are made by extracting metals that will run out more-quickly than oil.

>>28703870
Sodium batteries are available already, and solid state batteries are a complete game changer.
It might not be what you want to hear, but its happening.
You can wither grow to like it, or just seethe over it forever i guess

>>28703870
You're talking about brown ones, right?

>>28703873
Well, we will all be caramel color in the end.
That way there will be no racism

28703876
i hate everything about you.

>>28703881
Huh? We are all on the same side now.
We are pretty much family

>>28703872
Still energy made my burning fossil fuels in a heavier vehicle.
I don't give a shit. We could make similar environmental gains in many other ways. Having fewer children is the ultimate environmental ace card - not storing fossil fuel energy in batteries.
I don't give a shit what you think. Why don't we make cruise ships or beef illegal? That'd have a bigger impact than changing every car from ICE to EV. Why don't we go all nuke for base-load and natgas for above that?
I absolutely believe in man-made global warming, but buying some EV isn't the solution.

>>28703872
>Sodium batteries are available already
Enjoy 30km range. Perfect for commuting inside your WEF human habitation zone.
>solid state batteries are a complete game changer
EVs need a complete game changer just to break even functionally. To say nothing of cost.

Niggers will dye themselves white at the first opportunity. Brown people in interplanetary space will be rarer than gingers.

Even with China dirty electricity, EVs pollute less after just 10k miles.

>>28703793
>I'm a lefty. And an engineer
Nah I think you're an unemployed nigger

The best thing about EV isn't even it not killing the environment the same rate ICEV is. The best thing is that I can enjoy my rides in perfect quiet cabin with no bitch engine constantly reminding me that I'm driving a 19th century relic.

>>28704230
pretending this isn't bait for one sec, try driving something with an engine bigger than a 1.0L. hell most late model cars you can barely hear the engine anyway

>>28700420
>range anxiety

just plug it in when you get home and unplug it before you leave the next day

>>28704245
And then have your gas economy be raped by a gas chugger

>>28704259
That's mostly the drivers fault

>>28701753
I'm surprised we haven't seen many(any?) 100mpg+ turbo diesel hybrid cars. Seems like an easy way to put up really great mileage/range numbers.

>>28704259
driver issue, lots of heavier cars and pickups that have engines way too small for their mass and their fuel economy is worse than the old NA v8 they used to have

>>28702017
Most people neglect and abuse their cars, anon.

>>28704485
Okay. That's irrelevant. Someone neglecting their car isn't a fault of the car, or the design thereof, which is why I made that distinction.

Advanced classes from elementary through high school. Engineering degree. Bought my GTI new, in full, one year out of college.
You still haven't addressed the point I made. You discount everything I said for one insult tacked on the end, yet you haven't offered anything BUT demeaning statements insulting my intelligence, ironically full of spelling and grammatical errors.

>Engineering
I am really glad for you, we need people like you, that we can train to operate machines for us.
This frees up your betters to do more importants things.
Good for you, and thank you for your service, have next Christmas off.

>>28704659
Electric cars dont need anywhere near as much maintainence, hence their service intervals are twice as long.
There's just so much more that goes wrong with old ICEV's, and EC's are pretty much bulletproof at this point
