Hard to believe they could be bigger piles of shit than Tesla. I’m gonna wait a good 5-10 before I take electric seriously, right now the cars are just pure worthless e-waste after like 7 years- we need regulation forcing standard batteries and reasonable repair practices and costs before it’s anything other than a giant feel-good earth destroying money making scheme.
right now the cars are good for over 400,000km / 15 years before needing a battery replacement, and getting a 3rd party pack put in for 1/3 the price of genuine for another 15 years is a pretty good deal.
(and the old pack is 97+% recyclable)
I feel like you're looking at cars from 10+ years ago, or are purposefully being disingenuous. Especially with your last bs line. It's just pathetic.
The link I posted about Hyundai isn’t from 10 years ago, my point about batteries being non-standard both 10 years ago and today is valid.
I’m not making the argument electric is bad, I’m making the argument that the lack of regulation enforcing things like repairability and standardization means the consumer takes all the risk buying a 7yo Tesla while musk pushes for his 50 billion payout and dumps his stock. But no, you’re right, I’m being disingenuous, it’s totally not a scam designed to line pockets and fuck everyone else right?
