@@lowtech_12 strokes have evolved a very long way from the old days. With direct injection and other technologies 2 strokes are actually cleaner than 4 strokes. But the image and reputation of pollution and noise is solidly cemented. Study what Evinrude accomplished with the 2 stroke in outboards. Cleaner, lighter, quieter, fewer parts, more powerful, more reliable etc etc yet,,,, they failed as the historical reputation was just too hard to overcome. Other companies such as Orbital and others have also pioneered 2 strokes to be compliant with emissions but again no takers. It's not a technology challenge but a stubborn history that won't go away.

Toyota sales may do well as other car makers stop making sedans. Not everyone wants an SUV or truck. However, they should have stayed out of the EV market until they had something good. The BYD partnership produced the bZ4x and it was worst in class by the time it made it to market.
Hackett was the one that saved Ford, by making the Bronco and the Maverick. Those two new products are hugely profitable for Ford. Hackett was the one who insisted on a great design. Farley hasn't produced a good new product yet... he is a nice enough guy, but hasn't sacked the deadwood that still permeates Ford management, causing them to take too long to bring out new products, and wimping out like not putting hybrid into the Ranger, which it desperately needs to compete against the market leader Tacoma in the super important midsize truck segment.

As the uptake of BEVNPHE‘s continues to accelerate in China, especially I wonder when we are going to see that this uptake of alternative fuel vehicles start to affect the mass consumption of crude oil? We can’t be that far away from it starting to show in the growth and consumption figures.
There is no doubt that more gasoline and diesel would have been sold, if EVs had not been made. I believe the global new car market is about 15% BEV. That's a lot of unburnt gasoline.
China may be a leading indicator for the rest of the world, just like California is a leading indicator for the US market. Hitting 50 percent market for NEVs is a nice milestone, and next stop will be 50 percent pure BEVs for sure.
It's interesting that in Toyota case the institutional investors are the ones more aware of Akio's failings on steering the company toward weathering a market disruption. I guess with legacy companies the retail investor base is not as energized to do deep research into what they're owning, maybe they just got in on what they perceived as a stable stock. Interesting stuff, but hopefully the momentum can shift toward displacing a leadership built on family ties rather than merit.
Yeah I was surprised to hear OpEx went up so much then forgot about it when he mentioned the Nevada facility. But if CapEx isn't part of the equation, I think there's some other accounting at play. I think they tanked the financials for this quarter, to load them up for a banger Q3 or Q4.
7:28 If that is a two-stroke engine, then how come it has twin overhead camshafts and conventional valves? Are you confusing two stroke with two cylinder?
The explanation of Tesla operating expenses doesn’t make sense. Construction is classified as an asset on the balance sheet(likely construction in process) and won’t start generating depreciation expense until the project is in service.
Two-strokes are considered cheap to manufacture, simple and easy to maintain because they don't have valves trains and all the associated complexity that introduces into the cylinder head. The obrist design clearly has two valves per cylinder. It's basically two four strokes geared together @ the crank that runs as a two-stroke most likely with some sort of supercharger to facilitate scavenging.
I'm currently visiting Japan now. Akio, like most Japanese, will succeed because his horizon is decades ahead, not fixated on hyping stock price for a quarterly 8-figure bonus. Toyotas reflect that sensibility - durable, efficient hybrids and PHEVs mixed with EVs where it makes sense.
Check this out... People trading in Teslas tend to switch them out for, oddly enough, gas vehicles. Edmunds data shows that more than half of Tesla trade-ins this year are for gas cars. Only 32% of Teslas were traded in for other EVs.
I have never seen or heard any such thing. I'd be interested to know the actual source and what it actually says. I think the salient fact would be that Tesla has for years now, had the highest brand loyalty in the US auto industry, by far. This raises the question, how many Teslas are traded in? I mean, is that like, 60 Teslas were traded in for ICE and 30 for other EV? There are over 2 million Teslas on the road in the US.
My big question is if they're counting cars traded in to Tesla themselves (the largest aftermarket EV seller) which usually result in the sale of a new Tesla. Because if they're tracking Tesla owners who sell to other dealerships, that would mean it's already a crowd of people ready to switch away from Tesla.
Now what kind of 2-stroke has valves on the top ? 🤔. The idea of having a range extender + smaller battery makes engineering sense, but these „start ups“ are getting too creative in the naming and the presentation. The more confusing/absurd the more it looks revolutionary to the masses they‘re targeting, or at least that‘s what the „communication specialists“ seem to think.
Anyone who has owned a Toyota hybrid wants to go back and hydrogen isn't the future in the US. Akio needs to go and Toyota needs to make a compelling EV.
What garbage, all the current EV’s have a fit for purpose makeup. If you need to consistently do more than 400km trips without stopping for a charge, then buy a PHEV, rent an IC car for that day. Time to look your grandkids in the eye and tell them you refuse to contribute to a better future for them.
Every Volt owner I talk to has loved their car and use almost no gas. That clean-burning engine could enable a light truck that burns less than half the gas of an F150 with half the battery pack of a Lightning. I wanted a Cybertruck in 2019, but the price & range just don't make sense right now. Insurance on a $20k Tesla M3 prices some people out. Not even mentioning developing countries, where sporadic fuel & electric would give a hybrid owner the ability to charge from solar at home, drive goods to market, and refuel in town to get back home instead of waiting hours to charge, if facilities even exist.

Other than Hydrogen, I wasn't aware of any liquid fuels that are zero emissions. Even Hydrogen is not very green due to the normal (i.e. cheapest) generation process that has quite a bit of pollution. Seems all the "green" low polluting solutions are like paying $50/gallon of gas. Not very practical.
All combustion fuels have emissions. Burning hydrogen creates the strong greenhouse gas water vapor and NOX. Greenhouse gas behavior can not cause global warming because earth's greenhouse effect is always in saturation from water vapor absorbing all the greenhouse radiant energy from the earth's within 20 meters of the radiating surface. Yep, high school science. If the greenhouse effect was not in saturation there would be large changes in retained heat to the earth dependent on humidity that does not happen. Using hydrogen in a fuel cell has medium efficiency somewhat close to a Diesel and emits water vapor. Liquid hydrogen is extremely non dense at 7% the density of water and this the smallest of all molecule H2 will permeate tank materials. Methane CH4 has a lot of hydrogen in a much higher density liquid. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_hydrogen#:~:text=The%20density%20of%20liquid%20hydrogen,energy%20density%2C%20many%20fold%20lower.
