      They need to provide a final and complete resolution to a significant technical problem with the existing lines of Ioniq 5 and EV6: the ICCU. Many owners are complaining of Lvl 2 charging problems of faulty ICCUs. Recalls thus far have not completely solved this problem.

    • @hhuggman1
      @hhuggman1 6 місяців тому

      @hvu6037 , I don't disagree with you. You are right. I'm confident that the issue will be resolved. Interestingly, I've had one update for that issue for my EV6, and no problems since.

    • @hhuggman1
      @hhuggman1 6 місяців тому

      @MissGoElectric My career was 34 years in the auto manufacturing industry. None with US domestics or Korean. I researched the Hyundai groups offerings and concluded that using the risk vs. reward equation, the EV6 was the smartest purchase for me. I could have easily purchased a German brand, but those brands continue to be focused on status and pride instead of reliable ev day to day functionality and getting the family from point A to point B safely.

    Thanks for the great video. Just got the Tesla FSD Supervised v12.3.3 (2024.3.10) free month trial and it's amazing. Ran it all over the place today. I'd say it's better than most human drivers with the exception that the code for reversing hasn't been added in this build (but coming soon). It does back up for parking (and parking is perfect) so I assume they're being extra conservative and are feeding the AI more training videos for driving in reverse. It'll only get better from here and it's already pretty astounding. All on hardware 3 with 8 cameras. No lidar based system can do that.

    FYI: yesterday (Saturday) I happened to drive by the ElectraMeccanica Vehicles "factory" in Mesa AZ. Looks pretty vacant and empty, you might even say "lifeless". Yet even though they have no plans to ever make any cars, their stock SOLO is about 10x that of Fisker! ($0.21 vs $0.02). Arcimoto, pretty much in the same "boat" is listed at $0.46

    • @MissGoElectric

      They just finished their merger with Xos Trucks. I think it's lifeless until they move those assets over. www.electrive.com/2024/01/16/xos-will-merge-with-electrameccanica/
      We reviewed the solo when it was just coming out but they recalled and bought back every vehicle they sold and delivered because of a defect they could not repair.
      I tried to go to arcimotors website the other day and it was a dead link 😬

      There has been Tesla news for the previous three weeks. When they make electrification-specific movements, we cover it. Their big story last week was Full Self Driving related, which we thought was outranked by these stories considering our 10-minute format. As a leader, Tesla advancements are an important part of the global industry, technology, and policy tapestry and we aim to deliver proportionate attention on this segment.

    I enjoy your channel. Very upbeat. What concerns me about big discounts is the concern about a backup of inventory. Not saying that’s the case, but just wondering. As an EV owner, I’m for anything that will bolster the industry. Norway is surging ahead with huge increases to their EV infrastructure. It would be nice to see that happening here so potentially EV buyers can put to rest their hesitancy to purchase due to range anxiety. A big reason why many are not willing to change over from gas cars.

    • @MissGoElectric
      @MissGoElectric  6 місяців тому +1

      Norway has government EV positive incentives and ICE penalties unlike any other in the western world. It's also fairly small and there is a more unified culture. Additionally, they do not have any established automakers, which greatly reduces anti-EV legislative influence.

    Why isn’t Toyota doing more with pure EVs?? Do they know something we don’t? It’s not like them to be behind others if there isn’t a reason.

    • @MissGoElectric
      @MissGoElectric  6 місяців тому +1

      Toyota has demonstrated a conservative attitude towards EVs. A fast transition to EV requires ICE automakers decommissioning of facilities, long term support contact penalties, and labor force conflict which represents significant financial harm. Large and sudden realized losses can spook shareholders and topple even the largest company.
      GM and Ford have shown enormous losses on their efforts so far. Toyota has avoided that, seemingly waiting to catch a step change technological advancement in battery technology like solid state. They've shown a full lineup of EVs and spoken of an ambitious set of goals. It is tricky for brittle legacy automotive behemoths to change course quickly without breaking. Clean slate companies like Tesla and Rivian have a different set of challenges. -Producer Tim

    Good news with EV prices on those models! I just hope it's not a "going-out-of-business liquidation" for Fisker. The Bolt prices makes sense, as it's the end of the line for that model. Gotta say that Genesis is aiming high! Maybe their concepts will roll off of the new factory in Georgia…? Tim has a Cybertruck??? Oh, my…. 🙄 Hope it doesn't have phantom braking, red steering wheel alarms, ping-ponging between lanes like you've experienced (as I did previously).

They have to get that all sorted then they will push an update when it is ready supposedly. His includes FSD so hopefully it will be better than what you and I have experienced with our autopilots in the 3 & Y. He says he is surrounded by people every time he stops lol
