Or maybe it was pushed because german manufacturers at the time had a competitive advantage in diesel engine technology? We'll never know.

      Governments played a very important role in getting the EV transition underway. Governments are often the critical mover for new technologies. But now we're largely past the need of government action. We've reached manufacturing cost parity between EVs and ICEVs with EVs becoming less expensive to produce. That is where market forces take over.
      In the US, we have a problem with the government setting up a wall to keep out affordable EVs in order to prop up dying Detroit iCEV companies.

      About the Chinese EV, China is heavily supporting its companies, allowing them to produce and sell at prices that will allow China to destroy Western companies and therefore western economies, which in turn will allow the CCP to carry on with its military expansion at the expenses of Taiwan, Japan, The Philippines, Vietnam, in Africa and even in India.

      It was hardly the government's fault that the car makers were lying about how much pollution diesel cars give off. If what they were claiming had been true (they were cheating on the test) then the advice would have been correct for that time.
      We have to stop burning fossil fuels asap. You can use synthetic fuel but that takes 8x as much electricity per mile than driving an EV. It will always cost much more to drive an ICE once fossil fuels are banned. Almost everyone would choose EV in those circumstances. It's the inevitable destination. People are allowed to drive whatever type of car they want, it's just that manufactures won't be able to make more of them. Organising the transition this way is much easier on people than banning fossil fuels or saying they can't drive their existing cars.

      Lots off good petrol cars where scrapped as the government offered an incentive money off if you traded your car for a diesel in the early 2000z I’m pretty sure , the governments agenda now is want us to own nothing and be happy with evs that basically self
      Drive that are constantly monitored , the future is to control when we can even be allowed to use the evs
      The car market has become more off a tech market a new model every 2 years or so that looks as bad as the last tasteless designed one but with upgraded tech features , I drive a 10 year old diesel car and I would not change it it’s really reliable and nice to drive though the government love there £500 tax they get off me for driving it on horrid roads with potholes etc , I am a car person and when the suv trend started I lost interest they call 5 door hatch backs coupes nowadays 🤷‍♂️

When we just scrap functional cars for new electric ones then that's a hyperconsumption that gives of more emissions.
    And there's obviously no climate solution better than bicycles and public transport. Everyone's in a different position, and it's not feasible for everyone, but it's more feasible than a lot will admit. Let's try to not leave the consequences of our consumption to future generations.

In america, which generally has a lot more land mass, cities are designed a lot differently. Walking to the grocery store on average is further than the average walk to a grocery store in Europe. Some US cities are very walkable or very bike friendly cities, but most we're not built with any of this in mind.

You say the average cost in repairs over 100,000 miles is about $2,500. Yeah that's because none of the expensive components have broken down at that point.

      @d-rockanomaly9243 Місяць тому

      It all makes sense if we could just expand the capacity of EV batteries then clearly they will have better longevity than a car engine with all its moving parts and friction. There's no way to make something with that many moving parts last longer, considering the hundred years of innovation that has gone into them we seem to have hit a wall in terms of engine longevity. That's the key thing to remember is that ICE engines have had trillions of dollars and a century of innovation gone into them. They're essentially at the limit of what they can do. Electric vehicles are like a cassette player if they were audio technology.

      @@d-rockanomaly9243 150k miles is a massive understatement. nice try. if it were 150k, there wouldnt even be a used car market at all if every car needed a new engine. use common sense. its typically 250k before major repairs start rearing their heads. and you dont even want me to mention diesel which is typically good for 500k before people start talking rebuilds. of which, a new engine or rebuild is maybe 5k. whereas a new battery bank is 20k. is this what common core math gets us now? where people honestly believe that 5k>20k? ffs dude.

      It wasn't that he didn't take it serious, he mocked how seriously certain people and institutions took it and how hysterical their conclusions and solutions from it were. Even today it dubious how much man has caused it and if he has that: 1. it's a massive threat to humanity, and 2. man wont come up with a solution (which doesn't thwart mans growth) to solve it. In which case Clarkson's partial rejection and mocking of the climate disaster and the government solutions to it will seem reasonable and sublime in the light of this whole mountebankery.

    What's not mentioned is that the electric charging is, for the most part, achieved by generating power from burning coal. In fact, they're 'external combustion engines'.

      @melonusk234 That's true, but then (depending on what figures you look at), I believe there's about 60% from the combination of fossil fuels and gas.

      @Parawingdelta2 that's a very confusing point I'm not sure what you're trying to say. Bottom line is electric vehicles when you account for the environmental impact of their production, and the environmental impact of running them, they use far less fossil fuels and producing and running a ICe over its lifetime. So I'm not sure the point you're trying to get at.

    • @Parawingdelta2
      @Parawingdelta2 Місяць тому

      @d-rockanomaly9243 The point is that in reality, the electricity used to charge an EV is, in all probability, coming from a source using coal, oil, or gas. The degree to which that all happens may depend on the country and circumstances, of course, but in many cases, the claimed benefits to save the planet is a myth. I live in Australia and follow a guy on UA-cam named John Cadogan 'Auto Expert'. He is an engineer and journalist with a thirty plus year background in the automotive industry. He provides some very specific facts based on actual physics regarding EV's. Well worth listening to.

    Would you consider making the intro clip shorter on videos only 10 minutes long? It's kind of awkward to have the great interview bracketed between the exact same, long soundbite... - If the interview were 40 minutes, that would make a lot more sense!
