Not falling for the EV scam.
>2025I'm sure 2026 will be like any other year and things will continue humming along as usual.
who the fuck is buying non plug-in hybridsthey are inferior to plug-ins in every way
>>28927610funny that Indians and Brazilians are smarter than everyone else
Wtf is ethanol? Like literally the alcohol that you drink? That just works in cars?
>>28927755non plug in hybrids are incredibly reliable, plug in hybrids have a host of problems >who the fuck is buying non plug-in hybridsThe prius is the most popular hybrid in the world
>>28927759indians enjoy their small lightweight manual transmission cars, why does /pol/ hate them again?
>>28927770Because jews use indians to disrupt and destroy societies while they cash out on the downfall.
>bans and suffocates ICE cars>look people love EVs!
>>28927765>cleaner burning fuel>at the cost of some rangeAverage Brazilian don't travel very far. And they have the whole Amazon to cut down and build corn.
America a big gorhl!Picrel doesn't even include that one state that's 1/5th of the country's land.
>>28927857Has there been a single ban anywhere on ICEV?
>india>basednope. pick one and only one. they're just poor
>>28927865The emission rules are so tough that Mazda can't sell the 2.0l MX5 in EU. I'm calling that a soft ban
>>28927765>Like literally the alcohol that you drink?Yeah, but by 90% volume compared to ~40% of spirits + some additives.>That just works in cars?Yes but the engine needs to have been made to use it as fuel as it has higher octane than gasoline. Most cars in Brazil are sold as "flex" and allow accept both gasoline and ethanol as fuel.>>28927862>build corn>buildHmm... Anyway, most ethanol fuel from Brazil is made from sugar cane and not corn.
>>28927876That's not a ban though. That's like saying they're banning US presidents because they ban child rapists.
>>28927865Yeah, mate, plenteyah city, state, provincial, whatever other words for local governments have been doing this for decades.
>>28927880>doing it for decades>year is 2026 currently>all bans are 2030 or later>Norway didn't even ban it in 2025Why do rube goldberg cultists love to lie?
>>28927879look up car taxes in the affected countriesthey make normal cars unobtainable to the vaxcattle and they opt for the idiot pods
>>28927865No but threats of bans are sometimes enough. If you're buying a new vehicle and you're retarded, you might look at the bans and say "oh heavens what will I do to fill up. Better make my next vehicle an ev so I dont run out of gas." Etc etc.
>>28927882Wrong. They removed taxes on electric vehicles, but left them on ICEVs. It was just a small discount for EVs.The car taxes in those affected countries is less than the fuel premium people are paying due to Trump causing a global oil crisis. And there are tons of people posting on here "It's only a little bit more for gas! Doesn't even affect me." You can't claim the fuel price hike is both barely anything, and yet an equivalent tax on ICEVs equates to a ban.
>>28927888most people hate their government more than they care about their own wellbeingas such they want to pay as little avoidable tax as possible
>>28927889But nothing has changed with ICEVs. They still pay the same for them.
>>28927610Norway forced people to buy EVs.
>>28927881>Put a 30k "carbon tax" on a 40k vehicle.>"It's not banned guys!"
>>28927770Because they're 1/4th of the planet, 70IQ, shit on the street, and mooch off us like cockroaches.
>Amerimutts are on the same tier as jeets on being uncivilized swinesLMAOOOOO
>>28927610Why didn't they show Japan?
>>28927610How much crude oil does India produce?
>>28927755they are good enough and cheap
>>28928074One million barrels per day.
>>28927980>paying a 100% premium to have a worse product is a sign of civilization
>>28927980Yes they should copy CPS methodology from Norway too I bet. Guilty until proven innocent shithole.
>>28927755Why the fuck would you ever want a vehicle that needs to be fueled up AND plugged in?
>>28927770I didn't hate them until they moved over here and realized what they are actually like. Now I feel like ensuring Pakistan has a well-maintained nuclear arsenol is just the logical thing for us as a planet to do.
>>28927610>Norway buying nothing but EVs>Norway has large oil reserves>EVs perform poorly in cold weather
>>28928310Massive tax incentives and dealers refusing to stock ICE because of planned bans(most likely private public partnership scheme).They are also Scandinavians, just tell them the perfect Scandinavian drives an EV and they'll all buy that. Anyone who has never interacted with them will think this kind of lemming mentality is some kind of joke, but then you interact in them and realise that's the way they actually work.To control a German you order him to do something, to control a Scandi you create a kind if pastiche propaganda or what a Scandinavian should he like and blast it all around. They will come in defend this when they wake up >>28928294
>>28928323>what a Scandinavian should he like and blast it all aroundso basically start blasting propaganda of a scandi dude driving a boxy hatchback/sedan with a fuckhueg v8 and fat tyres and we have a chance of bringing comfy back
>>28928324Yes but you see you're not a part of their tightly controlled media landscape so you won't be able to do it.
>>28928310>EVs perform poorly in cold weatherNot as bad as some believe. Norway also has cheap hydro electricity.
>>28927610Amerisaars really are spiritual jeets, huh
>>28927851I thought that was mexicans
