You’ll be waiting a long , long time.
that‘s all?
truth. Solar cycles are rarely discussed because you can’t make the sun and space weather political but you can withhold data. I’m not suggesting that mankind stop seeking a cleaner way to live on this blue marble hurling through space but let’s be realistic, EV’s were NEVER about that.
**average buyer without the need of a subsidy.
That's the issue. We've beaten the horse to death here and elsewhere but the infrastructure isn't here, isn't going to be here for a while, and may never arrive. Let alone the fact that fossil fuels and coal are powering your charging station as it is and so on. Hybrids are/were the better option but the envirolobby is diametrically opposed to ANY solution that could use fossil fuels.
Jalopnik, too. Hard to believe that it got worse than it started but...
It does not matter to me how good something is, if I can't afford it, I don't buy it.
I know friends with Tesla's but they also have ICE vehicles. EV's are great for some people.
Sir, you are not playing along with the heavily promoted crass consumerism that defines our society.
I can't answer that last question with a dignified answer.
I'll accept an undignified one if that makes it easier.
That's the biggest issue in my mind. Unless you're buying a toy, your second car shouldn't cost more than your primary car. When my kids were still at home the wife got the "reliable" new car and I drove a beater, because that's what we could afford. Ford needs to come back to the real world.
Hydrogen is also the smallest element. Long term storage of Hydrogen is nearly impossible given the energy required to keep it cool, otherwise it'll expand as a gas and risk failure if the fuel cell. Over time, the Hydrogen will diffuse out of almost any container it is in because the atom is the smallest and simplest in the universe and simply passes between the molecular spacing of other elements.
This statement still holds true for my household, even today with the son married amd out of the house.
