Wish somebody would plot public chargers per 100,000.
I'm also curious about ICE cars per 100,000 (or cars in general)
110,000 hahahaha
Genuinely surprised that alaska has more EVs the Mississippi.
Mississippi is also dirt poor. Rather than per resident, l'd like to see per 100k cars.
Half of Alaskas population lives in Anchorage and gas is expensive.
Georgia has a lot too surprisingly. Also digging the EV usage in Hawaii
Now overlay a political map
New York is one of the most liberal states in the country, but its got fewer EVs per capita than Texas in no small part because its also one of the few states with a functional mass transit system.
Utah is one of the reddest states in the country, but it also has enormous wealth per capita, so it has far more new EVs than bluer states like Delaware and Rhode Island and New Mexico and Wisconsin.
Thank God for Mississippi!
Mississippi - nearly always dead last in anything good.
Mississippi - nearly always dead last in anything good.
Most of them make sense, like ND, given the distance and very cold winters.
Mississippi is behind everyone else again
Just visited Denver/Boulder. They had EVs everywhere
Now overlay that map with a map of all the states with the largest populations of poor people.
It's not the same map. The east coast is rich as well. That being said, I'm guessing a Tesla is down the list from a proper closed sewage system, if you're in a poor black belt county, so no surprise it's pretty low in the deep south.
There's poor people in NY, of course, but so is there in Cali.
In Turkey, a Tesla is very cheap compared to alternatives. By cheap I mean thrice as cheap.
The real question is what state has the most people per 1000 EVs!
I've seen quite a lot of Tesla in Florida, way more than 1%. However I was only at tourist places.
Thanks for sharing!
So every state under 425 sucks balls yeah?
Actually I'm not sure if WI deserves that, are they cool?
Electric cars are bad for the environment since they require mineral mining and polute the city with micoplastics from tire dust. They are almost as bad as ICE cars.
Ebikes are the way to go.
Yes, microplastics are bad, but the comparison between electric and ICE cars is just not true at all. Mineral mining can be bad, but it's mostly bad because bad is cheap, and they can get away with it in third-world countries with lax environmental protections; however, even given this, when a battery wears out, all it is is a change of configuration of the materials that make it up, which you can reclaim, and we're getting better at reclaiming those disordered elements in used batteries. So the percentage of reused minerals in batteries will continue to climb. ICE cars combust fuels which are used up and turned into water and CO2, which is bad and requires more fuel. Also, yes, e-bikes are good.
Dropped your /s
As a Californian, I'm sorry about Musk, guys... We fucking hate that guy, and his shitty cars, but we have a ton of people here, and some of them are Conservatives and/or Nazi's that own Tesla's.
Just because someone buy/use a product from a company doesn't mean they like the CEO.
some of them are Conservatives and/or Nazi's that own Tesla's
That's the most american thing I heard today
