Mazda and Toyota were always playing the long game while everyone else jumped on the bandwagon to nowhere.

Amen to that, my friend!
@@scaryfakevirus WHY? Is it just because you're anti semitic, or have you got a genuine reason for saying that? Because you are espousing real genocide.
It doesn't matter what car even if it was powered by water. They don't want us to drive our own transport. They want us all off the road.
Apart from the wealthy,
Maybe .... these car manufacturers can see the mass car market continuing?
This comment needs to be pinned ...
At least you get it.
Most are oblivious.
No, Switzerland want us off the road and this is dictated by Swiss spies in our government like Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer and many other members like Ofcom and Ofgem.
No, they don't want you full stop
Toyota don't believe in EVs which is why their offering was so half-hearted. In comparison, US auto makers have found EVs are financial arson.
I see what you did there!
Yaris gr 1.6 3 cylinder 257bhp. Perfect for the environment and only weight 1,280kg. The potholes are getting worse cause of heavy EVs
Yet Toyota and Lexus are still promoting their EVs, in our UK TV Ads every other Ads are still promoting EVs
According to Jaguar, who've just put all their eggs in the EV basket, ICE cars are finished and EV's are the future....... my prediction is that Jaguar go bust within 5 years and the car makers who are rowing back on EV's and sticking with petrol & diesel engines will still be here.
I find it interesting that Geoff says Jaguar is now dead, as far as I'm concerned as soon as a company falls into foreign hands, it's dead. It died when Tata bought them.
@@eyesodd Jaguar has always made very good looking garbage vehicles

Just shows the politicians have zero idea about real life.
That’s what they want you to believe but they know what their doing and getting in the money from whoever to act stupid even if it goes against logic
Their wage,perks,2nd jobs and pensions are worth selling their soul for. It's all a scam.
Hahahaha! Wish I'd put a bet on EVs failing!
Could be worse. You could have bet on Tesla succeeding.
But the best part is they haven’t failed infact the reality is engines are still getting banned & thats not gonna change.
Bye bye jaguar 😢
Ye bye tories, bye bye freedom. 2024 is the year of goodbyes
Their governments didn't force them on a horse they didn't want to ride. With a clear view, it was obvious to them full EVs are not the future.
Jaguar is the new MG. It died when they abandoned their petrolhead roots.
Mg3 will be available with a petrol engine next year 😀
And these days, MGs are made in China.

The CEO of Renault recently praised Japanese Kei cars as an alternative to EVs, safe to say the EV dystopia is failing.
Actually, Kei cars would be fantastic for France with how tiny their parking spots are.
“All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed; second, it is violently opposed; and third, it is accepted as self-evident." Arthur Schopenhauer.
I am a great Jaguar fan and own their swan song F Pace SVR. I agree that Jaguar is now finished as a car brand. It’s a tragedy as their cars in recent years have been excellent. They were driven to destruction by the French idiot CEO who left recently, sadly it seems too late for them to pull back from the brink. RIP Jaguar.
Great news.Common sense is prevailing..
Agreed...our / the peoples common sense has prevailed. We have the power..
Remember when we had many small and cheap to run cars? The mini 850, the 2cV, Renault 4 just a few. They all had character! And reliability issues.....but mainly character.
Yes and you could fix any issues and without a computer and little to no plasic ah those was the real cars and could take a bump and not fall apart and no cam belts to snap and the list is endless

Can't argue with that.
@@peterhayward1848 yes, but now we have hot dip galvanizing and wax oil so bye bye rust problems.
All for a crisis that doesn’t exist.
So right.
You can't fix stupid.
A problem that nobody with any ability to make a significant impact actually cares about solving..they just want to look like they’re helping because that’s cheaper and easier than actually helping. If anyone really cared, then the world’s largest sources of pollution would be addressed first. The problem is that even if entire populations of relatively small countries such as the UK and Germany completely destroy their standard of living for the sake of the environment, it wouldn’t make a damn bit of difference so long as massively populated countries like India and China continue to build hundreds of coal fired power plants a year. This has nothing to do with saving the climate and everything to do with our governments controlling what we do, where we go and what we say.
Are you saying the climate crisis doesn’t exist?
@@Anonacc54there is no crisis
We’ll soon find Jaguar and Lotus day-drinking at the pub wondering what went wrong.
Make them smaller, cheaper, less complicated and more reliable. How difficult can that be?
we all knew...
"what are you going to work on in your garage now" i keep getting asked
"same as i have worked on for the last 44yrs" i always say...
You will probably get more work as drivers try to keep their old cars going for as long as they can.
I worked out years ago that when electric cars reach 10% worldwide, the price of the raw materials to make the batteries would increase so much due to supply and demand, it would no longer be possible to produce electric cars at a competitive price.
Economies of scale might not work for the EV supply chain because dealing with small disparate sources is like herding cats. Give the supply chain years 20 years to mature. In the battery world "cheap" is very costly and recycling batteries is like unfrying an egg. There are fewer than 15 pounds of recoverable lithium in a 900 pound battery - a money losing process. After a hundred years there has finally been some progress on recycling tires.
decarbonisation is a scam. I call for more carbon and co2 please
Toyota cracked the being green thing when they built the prius.
Toyota hybrids are still the best IMO as they've been making them for so long and have refined them so they're excellent now. I have a 21 plate Yaris Hybrid and it's the best car I've ever had
@@sarahneedhamaccording to all this is true. Toyota hybrids are possibly the best power train available right now.
@@kdegraaNever driven an inline 6 before?
@@illegalopinions4082 yes I have. The first inline six I had was in a 69 Chrysler Valiant. I had a few cars with inline sixes. The last being a Ford Falcon.
I’m not sure what sort of cars I’ve had or driven has anything to do with what cars have good power trains today.
The fact is Toyota probably has the most reliable and efficient power train in their petrol hybrid set up.
@kdegraa I'm was specifically replying to the part where you said where 3-4 pot hybrids were the best power train available right now. I don't share your view because I view the battery the same way I view NOS. It's an added consumable but wouldn't specifically count as part of the power train. Hence why I brought up the inline 6 engines because I assumed you'd never experienced one if you made the broad statement about Toyota PHEV engines
Toyota I think are going to build a new Celica ❤ALL Petrol❤
Scotty Kilmer will be happy
That is good news, but what I want to hear is some big company openly saying, that there is nothing wrong with CO2. And actually returning the gas back to atmosphere/circulation is a GOOD thing. Even if our influence is tiny.
Geoff I was with a guy today who works for a leading roadside recovery company he was on a course with a guy who was delivering a presentation on ev,s and the impact of them on our roads and the harm that they can potentially cause which we all kind of know fires that cannot be extinguished for one but he said the the Uk government is not going to relent on pushing everyone who can afford a ev to have one the mot scheme has recently been overhauled with tighter controls on emissions for diesel cars and going forward with even tighter controls to basically get everyone off the road including classic cars vans etc he also mentioned that some garage owners were there where it was pointed out that they were probably going to become forced into closing or heavily investing in the technology to keep up my point on this was the Uk government who ever it is is not and never will be relenting on on the push to get cars off the roads and in my opinion forcing the 15 minute city on to us and without pushback from us it’s going to happen
Sadly, I know :-( we can try though
That's the wef agenda which we need to resist
We are being forced/coerced down many paths that expose our government for the puppets they [no matter who holds the reins] are, the fly in the ointment for their strategy is getting the huge corporations that provide the lobbying funds to accept the loss of revenue from destruction of the hugely profitable personal transport business, the west needs the East.
Wow, that was a long sentence 😳
The USA has just increased the import duty on Chinese EV’s to 100%. How long before other countries recognise that the CCP have been subsidising the manufactures and follow suit to protect their own car industries.
EU commission will soon finish its investigation into chinese EV dumping, no way they can ignore the problem and not do anything.
The UK will ignore everything that puts our industry first and will continue to allow dumping
American car companies are heavily subsidised too.
The EU will introduce battery passports in the next few years. It's basically a full audit of the battery and it's materials. I'm guessing that many imported batteries won't comply?
@@the_lost_navigator7266 What ever happens the UK will remain a dumping ground for cheap imports
I really don't understand this carbon neutral ball ox.
They knew small car small engine was the answer when they launched the mini in 1959.
It used less resources in every way!!!
I wonder if an EV would ever last 27 years?
From what I hear, most EVs struggle to last 27 days.
What they need is a trailer full of Duracell bunnies.
The bodyshell might - but - - !
just replace the battery every 5 years and you should be good.
Whether this is financially sound is another question.
Henry Ford's wife drove a 1914 Detroit Electric well into the 1930's but I don't think it had a touch screen.
Of course it has. You see that Channel 4 dispatches show on Sunday night? It costs 5p a mile more to charge an EV than it is to buy petrol....
But it isn't! (Add in a few "it depends" caveats)
So what will EV owners do when the EV charger companies start closing their charger sites when their revenue starts dropping due to less EV's on the roads??
They will still fight you with arguments that their buying decision was the best one. There's no fixing of stupid.
Go for short Sunday drives.
If they can plug in at home, spend the week charging, they might get out to the beach, and, if the are really lucky, get home again.
They'll all be buying generators to throw in the boot and cutting holes in the roof for the exhaust 😂
Panic lol
Treadmills
This is the way forward...
EVs are the betamax of the video era, ICE is the VHS 📼 👌
Bio and E-fuels for existing ICE vehicles is the way forward.
For 2 reasons -
1. There will never be the power grid capacity to cope with charging if we go 100% EV.
2. There isn't enough lithium in the ground to make enough batteries to replace every ICE vehicle with an EV.
There is not enough electricity in the UK to make synthetic fuels. Unless the government builds 50 nuclear power stations 😮
👌 yep!
@@johnathanpearson3203 Let's not forget synthetic fuel is in it's early stages of development relatively speaking.
It's likely the net energy gains will become much more favourable than they currently are!
When you factor in lithium mining and it's impact on the environment, shipping that to battery manufacturers, then shipping those batteries to EV manufacturers, we quickly catch up in terms of carbon footprint of bio / synthetic fuels ⛽️
Also taking into account building charge stations, copper wire production for connecting to the grid and all the logistics involved with that!
Building of EV cars, scrapping of ICE vehicles, surely a better solution is keep currently running ICE vehicles and the minimal conversions needed to transition to zero emission fuels.
EV vehicles are a solution for some but they're not a one size fits all, going 100% EV is just bonkers!
And everything else that they want electric,does the windfarms terminals speed up when there's a surge😂,but powerstations will need to turn up those gas powered turbines,even before evs,they would come on to stop the surge in the morning,and at night before corrie😂,maybe the powergrid are buying used aircraft engines,a d when there's a super surge,it will sound like Manchester Airport is in your back garden😂
I think the EU doesn't care about the recent big slowdown in EV sales and the fact that people don't want EV's. They will continue to push EV's (and will probably accelerate the transition) and will make sure ICE cars will be more and more expensive. They don't give a sh*t about the consequences on people and the whole cars industry in general ... I hate the EU a little bit more every day.

I love Subarus. Had one for ten years in Canada. Never got stuck in the snow, crossed the north American continent four times without a single problem in all conditions apart from a flat in Texas. If they opened a dealership in Galway I'd be there.
If EVs are so great nobody would need to be forced to buy one. 🤔
Why don’t Pfizer make cars ?
Just curious who's trying to force you?.....you have freedom of choice currently don't you?..
@@bwarey52 “force” was probably the wrong word , however, governments in many countries are currently pushing measures to force ( through fines ) manufacturers to produce a quota of EVs ( regardless of the fact that dealers already have a backlog ) . Pretty soon something has to happen one way or the other.
@@karlhulme8014 people just don't like the feeling of being told/forced what to do. I have far bigger things to think/worry/care about rather than how the car I drive is propelled. It's just a box to move you somewhere but the ownership of a car and its status is a far bigger emotional reaction the older you are
@@bwarey52 Its like all the "safety" BS that's forced upon you (lane assist, auto braking, auto spacing, reversing camera, etc.) - normal people don't want that crap, they want to drive the car, not have it drive them. The govt forces it by passing laws for "safety" and thus you're forced to either buy the crap or go without. For EV's - companies are ONLY allowed to buy EV's unless they require ute's for construction, tradie jobs or primary production. Companies with ICE fleets are forced to convert them to EV at a rate of 10% each year or face huge tax penalties. Then car dealers are taking away manuals, autos and now pushing EV junk because that's what the govt wants (and the govt gives them tax breaks for doing so) - they're forced by law to sell (of all sales) 30% EV's each year - I know people who've been told to put their name on a list for an ICE vehicle next year due to this law.
You NEED to care about how the car your driving is being propelled - if its EV, your range is limited, your time will be lost to charging, when the subsidies go they'll be more expensive to charge due to power shortages and zero competition and you won't be able to drive out bush and go camping for a week as you can't keep an EV charged in the bush; if you use an ICE vehicle you'd simple carry a small boost-pack "jumpstarter" and a jerrycan of fuel.
If you don't like having choice and being free to choose, that's fine, the reality is many people are the opposite.
The idiots at the head of Jaguar thinking this is the way to go should be named and shamed then promptly sacked!
Jaguar is an Indian company, does it matter? Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram are European when they close (likely soon) I don't think to many people will get worked up.
Instead of telling us of the carbon output coming from exhausts, that is probably data from about 30 years ago, we should be told what the modern diesel & petrol(gas) engines are actually producung! Then information about the astronomical levels of atmospheric, water and land pollution that pure EVs make, the increasing "safety" items that are forcibly installed that and are actually distractions & probably cause accidents!
I could go on!
The age of the vehicle is irrelevant to CO2 output. One carbon atom binds to two oxygen atoms during the combustion process. Burning one litre of petrol will create 2.3 kgs of CO2 and burning one litre of diesel will create 2.7 kg of CO2. Whether you burn that litre of petrol in a 1913 Model T Ford or in a 2024 model Ford, 2.3 kgs of CO2 will come out of the exhaust. All the reductions made in exhaust emissions over the years have been in the other toxins that come out of the vehicle's exhaust pipe. CO2 output is a constant.
To my knowledge no one has ever quoted the nuclear weapons that were tested in the atmosphere and underground and they go on about cars.
@@robertgreen9614 and co2 is still NOT A POLUTANT

Can't see Jaguar surviving with that business model.
Monster depreciation on two year old I paces as well.
Just seens a channel 4 dispatchers program on 'the war on motorists' and it looks like the mainstream media is slowly chatching up. Topics covered were potholes, LTNs and the cost of EVs and associated polices. Worth a look!
I ran a VW Scirocco which I bought new for 11 years, good car. I then bought a Golf, useless breaking down all the time so I replaced it with a Shogun which I ran for 11 years. It was bought as a big car as I had a family and a 24' boat to launch into the sea in Northumberland, it served very well. In 2019 It was not required anymore, kids grown up, boat no longer owned so I sold it. I replaced it with a new Suzuki Vitara as as small cars now seemed to have be quite big, it's a 1 litre petrol car and I cannot fault it, I will run it until it needs replacing, probably another 5 years minimum.
I doubt if their projected ev manufacturing figures will actually happen as the market will have moved even more against EV’s long before then in my opinion.
Lets not get too exited about anything Toyota, Mazda and Subaru have to say about the future of cars. Up until about 2000 the average car could be repaired by its owner if they so desired but the difficulty in keeping up with the technology now employed in cars means you won't be repairing your own car anymore and even garages are finding it too expensive and difficult to keep up. The future belongs to the specialists and dealerships . And the cost will soon mean that most of us can forget any ideas of driving our own cars as they slowly declare everything non compliant for something or other. Any freedom in the future requires us to get rid of our governments and start again.
Don't forget all the spyware in cars. People are getting arrested for bad-mouthing the chinese government, not realizing their car is recording everything.
A large part of the Japanese market are places like SE Asia, and in reality they cannot afford to transition to EVs even if they wanted to. Come to think of it; neither can we!!
I'm driving a Daf, 800,000 plus km on the clock. I love it, it's sweet.
Mazda has been working already for years on economical and low emission ICE, check their Skyactiv engine lines, also while everyone is going 1 litre engines, they come up with 3.3 inline and RWD set ups lately. It is my favourite brand ever and cant wait to get my hands on that 3.3 liter engine US import straight to the UK😎
Not sure I personally agree with wanting engines to get progressively smaller - still looking forward to getting a big V8 someday... if they're still legal to drive by then. But it's certainly better than everyone being forced to electric-only.
I'm a Mazda driver. Love Mazda. The reason they're saying & doing this, along with Toyota/Subaru - The were too slow off the mark with EV because it never caught on in Japan, they just aren't a thing there. Their economy relies too much on automotive to gamble on EV. Only for them, we'd all have to listen to VW etc. telling us EVs are the way, in the hope that everyone forgets they gassed monkeys.

Good one Geoff....cheers
Geoff, I watch your UA-cam channel very often. Thanks for putting some sense into this EV madness. I am ok with those who live in a detached or semi detached house with a private driveway to charge their EVs and drive to work maybe 30 - 40 miles and a few trips to the supermarket and family. Works for them. Not a good idea for long distance journeys with limited, faulty and expensive public charging. Final bit from me is that the Council that I previously worked for had a small fleet of EVs for business use. First was Nissan Leafs early model poor range pretty useless. Equally useless was the Renault Zoe. Then they got BMW I3s much better range and performance. Then found out these I3s were “range extenders” found out that they had a 500cc motorcycle type engine driving a generator with a 2 gallon tank that could maybe give you say 60 miles as a back up. My boss told me that BMW stopped making the “range extender” model. What the heck is happening here?
Jaguar marque about to be sold for something else, methinks. The vehicles will be sacrificed.
If only Stellantis weren't planning in killing Alfa Romeo in the same way as Tata are killing Jaguar😥😥😞
As predicted another manufacturer will pull out of UK dealerships.
Bio fuels, and the easiest (requiring the lowest embedded energy during production by transesterfication) of all these to produce is bio diesel - oh, the irony!
Bio fuels also allow to use already produced cars until they wear out.
Can you name one combustion car that runs only on bio fuels ?. We don't even understand how nature makes petroleum let alone replicate it. Yes, we can pour a load of used chip frying oil into a diesel engine and it will run...but for how long ?. If bio fuels were the answer we would already be using them on mass. But we aren't because like electric the technology isn't there yet. So let's not get ahead of ourselves.
They had a lot of success in making bio fuel from algae only for it to dissappear overnight.
The one type of engine that can run on any percentage (0 to 100%) of bio fuel without needing any modification whatsoever is a diesel engine. It doesn’t matter if the engine is brand new or 100 years old, it will run on dino (oil derived) or bio diesel in any combination.
The only downside of swapping over to a significant percentage of bio diesel on a vehicle that has been running dino diesel for several years is the cleaning action on the various sludges that tend to accumulate on the tanks and lines when swapping over to bio diesel. Just be sure to swap out the fuel filters after the first 1000 miles on high % bio diesel and everything is fine.
I agree that most petrol/gasoline cars need significant modifications to run on high percentages of bio-ethanol, but diesel is 100% bio ready and has been for the last 100 years.
NAY ! Used CHIP FAT !!!
RIP to Jaguar.

I personally think the intention was never to do away with ice completely but more to force manufacturers to start building EVs so development begun.
I’ve just ordered a top gear Eagle I Thrust car, otherwise known as a Nissan X-Trail e-power ICE that drives like an EV.
Toyota didn't ever want to go fully electric. I think it was Toyota that did a study into electric only vehicles a few years ago, and discovered that if all the cars in Japan were fully electric the country didn't produce enough electricity to charge them all without causing power cuts at peak times. Welcome to the future of the UK, that struggles to produce enough electricity to power the national grid as it is already 🤦🏻
Its almost as if Akio Toyoda knows what he is talking about.
Will be interesting to see if Honda, Suzuki, Mitsubishi follow suit. No European or US manufacturers will publicly endorse this ..... But in private they will very much wish this works out
