Yeah people in control who come up with ideas to change the world never to lie to the populous to implement them. Notice I said change not save. P.S. This will never happen by the dates stated above. |

I’ll take it a step further !
Mass usage of lithium battery powered EVs, WILL NEVER HAPPEN ! Based on the DATA, there is not enough lithium nor power generation capacity in the world. Another energy source will need to be discovered. FIFTEEN container ships generate more pollution than all the ICE cars in the world, and limiting such could impact the environment more than eliminating ALL THE CARS IN THE WORLD ! EV conversion has become similar to a cult in most societies, with their primary belief principle being “Intentions matter more than results.” The only item missing is a lapel ribbon, because nothing says “I care” like a ribbon ! Follow the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

If someone wants to or if it makes you feel good to drive a EV then by all means drive on. But don’t tell me it’s to save the planet. |

It’s like I said, there are numerous challenges, there were also an incredible amount when cars replaced horses, we overcame those and we will overcome the ones necessary for the EV transition |

Some people drink grape Koolaid some drink cherry. Just as many above like mentioned (states, countries, politicians scientists etc) people disagree with the EV necessity.
As to the money what is billions actually mean. One crypto co just went belly up 14x that amount overnight. The President wants to give college educated people who willingly took out student loans for their worthless education 400x times that. Yes it is all a scam! |

LOL… OMG… A world-wide scam. Yeah.. yep, must be. I don’t understand exactly is benefiting from this WORLD-WIDE scam, a conspiracy involving thousands of political leaders, manufacturers, scientists, they must all be in on it right? Perhaps you could enlighten me how this works. The term: Tin foil hat really comes to mind. |

By 2035, there simply won‘t be many car manufacturers left that sell ICE vehicles.
Because that is where the market goes and the consumer demand. Just have a look at what manufacturers plan for the replacement of current models |

So when a hurricane happens and the roads are flooded, are electric cars safe? What about hours-long traffic jams trying to get out of the way of the disaster?
Look, i'm 100% cool with electrics vehicles, yet they have do indeed limitations. A Ferrari can't tow a 6000 lbs trailer, and a Ford F350 Superduty truck makes a horrible track car.

Does it make sense using an ICE car when the roads are flooded to a degree that you fear of the safety of an EV car? |

For now only a Dinan BMW as don't need more than that. But if you have a Pagani you're giving away I'd happily look after it.

Oooh, we did that on the ferry from Dover to France once. Long story... yet worth it as we were a bit, ummm, busy at the time. My sincere apologies for the cars stuck behind us until we (finally) made it back to the car to exit the ferry.

And someone has to explain to me the money aspect. Are you trying to say that a group that will benefit from this is leading the move to EVs? Who? Elon? Transitioning to EVs from ICE is costing automobile manufacturers BILLIONS of dollars, so who exactly is benefitting from this extremely costly transition? Again, we are talking countries all over the world, so whomever these conspiracy leaders are that will benefit financially from the transition to non-ICE vehicles must be extremely powerful. |

electric cars have now become electric self driving cars. wide release beta is just a matter of time before legislation follows seeing as autopilot has had 19 fatal crashes since 2016!

How many fatal crashes were caused by human error since 2016? My guess is a lot more than 19. Oh I am not a proponent of self driving vehicles, I don’t care if they are continued or cancelled, but people point to it such a big deal when there is an unfortunate death caused by AI, when there are dozens, hundreds, thousands? Of deaths in the US EVERY SINGLE DAY caused by human error.
