How EV sales are losing momentum with US buyers

Never mind, oil production is now recovering since the disastrous Trump years.

It looks like the US is trailing Europe again; brought down by all those coal-rollers dragging their heels pretending they live in the 20th century.

It also seems weird odd commercials that all these vees have all types of lights. I wonder if the electric companies have an interest in the EV market
 
Don’t see the advantage of buying an EV
gasoline is plentiful, cars now a days very clean.
I don’t even see any charging stations around

The key is with US buyers.

Worldwide that is not the case. The reason why is simple, the USA has the cheapest gasoline prices in the world. Unfortunately for the USA, gasoline prices will once again rise.

It's actually a good thing the US is dropping in purchases, that will lower the cost and delivery times for the rest of us. (As I now have two hybrids on order)

Yes, thankfully gasoline prices in most of the US are not as crippling to low and middle income families they are in other parts of world. The poor are sure getting hit hard in parts of California though. Just drove past a gas station on Ventura Blvd in Woodland Hills where regular costs $5.59 a gallon.

lol "poor" getting hit hard", Fuck off. The US has it so good it's not even comparable. Try Hong Kong at $11.726 per US gallon. $5.59 per gallon would be excellent in the UK, or even Canada.

Why do you post such nonsense? What do you think you know about EVs that you think is an insurmountable problem with the cold?

FFS, do you not understand that lithium batteries are used in satellites, moon and Mars rovers?
 
when I look at the whole EV thing....the majority of freight in North America is moved by planes, trains and trucks....and I think the rail industry is the biggest consumers of fuel, and I don't see any of them switching to electric anytime soon

the rail roads in the east are electric all the way from DC to NYC

Trains are already diesel electric - they are electrically driven, with diesel being used for generating electricity for the electric drive motors.

Most designs also use batteries for surge capacity and some regenerative braking.
 
well I guess I should rephrase...the trucking industry is experimenting with electric on the semi front, but I am not sure how far that has got with trials and so forth

quite a bit in Europe too.....but expensive to build the infrastructure

Regardless of how far it has already come- new battery tech is moving fast. Cars are getting into the 300+ mile range and most local delivery vehicles are used in frequent start and stop situations with few total miles in a day - perfect for electric.

Many delivery trucks already are full electric- it’s far cheaper for fleet maintenance.
