I’m not ev fan, but 99.5% of drivers, would never need the entire range of almost every EV produced today. And they’d then charge at home . The ONLY people That would experience range issues are people that travel across the state or country. When the hell else would you need 200 to 300 miles, and not being able to go home to charge overnight for the next day. Please do tell. Range anxiety is pretty much nonsense for the vast majority of people. It’s the exception, not the rule. And again, who cares how long it takes to charge, When the majority of people sleep at home… all night. So yeah, if you’re driving 500 miles in a day, you’ll have to wait a bit to charge your car.
My family lives in Texas. We have to pull horse trailers. We pull them all over the place and into the surrounding states. I don't think I need to go any further than that.
Electric cars now are pretty close to cost of gas cars but a hell of alot cheaper to run maintain etc.... and it's a nightmare to have these cars without a home to charge it at
One INDISPUTABLE FACT the MSM-DNC never will report, is that approx 7 times more people die each year from extreme cold than from extreme heat. So the Green Nazis are not only advocating limiting a gas that all plant life needs to survive but are advocating killing more humans with cold.
EV had been done in Asia for awhile. It's ironic that Asians are much more perceptive to the potential and inevitable failure of EVs. Sure there is a rise but it's still not dominant enough to overtake ICE cars. Malaysia for example, has such cheap petrol, the citizens prefers ICE over EV. Singapore, where cars are ridiculously expensive, is a great city to go 100% EV, but due to battery warranties and lifespan, many would choose not to buy an EV, simply because of lack of 3rd party servicing and battery replacement services. The only 2 countries that are seeing a rise in EV sales are China and Thailand. China because they have tons of car brands, and Thailand because they want cheap luxury and EVs in general are cheap luxury. But they are horrible to drive in Thailand, especially if you need to go to different provinces. I honestly do not believe that EVs will ever overtake ICEs simply because gas is still an option and so long as battery life of EVs are still not more than 10years, it will never overtake it.
Where do the approximately 100 million people who don't have a driveway, let alone a garage, and have to park at the curb charge their EVs? 100 million extension cords across sidewalks?? Sounds like a slip-fall lawyer's dream come true.
yes you get hazardous waste, way worse than og emissions. but its not just that, the production also causes emissions, equal to an average car driving for approximately 30k miles. sustainability is just a buzzword for dummies who only see the trojan horse and could never guess the reality behind/in it.
I've been asking that for years now. They have all of these experts testifying before them under oath they all lie through the skin of their teeth and nothing is ever done about it. What's the point of this political theater? Who cares that these people are getting yelled at. They're still allowed to go on doing the horrible things they're doing. Hot air is just that. Hot air.
Not in Commiefornia. They’re already telling people not th charge their cars at certain times because the grid can’t handle it. Imagine what it’s going to be like when no one vmcam buy anything but an EV in CommieFornistan!
@@klausuhlig7141 😂😂😂 as ignorant as Kennedy, prices of EVs have dropped around the world, as there are more and more of them, from all car manufacturers.

That Davis guy represents 90% of Americans, "I didn't buy one because I may need to drive 450-500 miles." EXACTLY! When you actually need to drive you want a car you can trust will keep running whether you're in California, Iowa, Florida, or NY.
Agree! I live in Texas. These cars just don’t fit my needs. It’s not unusual to drive 2.5 -3 hrs to get to the next big city. Much of that is open highway. Few places to charge. If the battery fails they are basically bricked until I can afford to 6k - 15K or more to replace it.

It's more about control than anything else. When you understand that those who want to be in control of you don't want you driving 500 miles in one day it will all become much clearer to you.
I work with Ev-chargers, Circle K and Zap-tech etc. It is useless tech. The chargers overheat and burn up very often, and no one have any idea what to do with the used chargers. My warehouse is 50% full of useless Electric Waste that no one wants to deal with.
I got out of a movie around 11pm just last week and I had parked on the other side of the mall. I’m walking to my car and I see this line of like 8 vehicles from afar and I couldn’t tell what was going on… As I got closer I realized they were waiting in line to charge their cars at one of three charging stations in the mall parking lot. Blew my mind. These people were waiting an hour or more to charge their vehicle at 11pm on a Saturday night; some had their kids in the car. I hopped into my gas powered car and happily drove off.
That sounds like poor planning on their parts. Some people get so excited on the performance model test drives and buy one. I drove one once and the exceleration was incredible.

Distance is competitive and competition will make EVs comparable to ICE vehicles. Repairs are far less than internal combustion vehicles.

@@gregorygant4242 What do you consider a long commute? The average commute in the US is about 42 miles round-trip (almost exactly what mine is). I can make that drive for 7 days straight without needing to charge once.
I agree that an eBay could be the most I would be getting myself ever involved with regard to electric transportation but as far as it goes regarding the actual components I do not know how much of those precious minerals that are required for the battery itself can be mined and sourced within the United States as far as I know our richest deposits are on landlocked areas either controlled by Native American treaty or companies that have no interest in Mining them and they are more of a financial holding. So unfortunately if you do not agree with electronic vehicles in the first place which it seems we both do not, than everything regarding electronic bikes or E bikes would have to fall into the same category as we would still be reliant on Chinese made batteries and base precious metals in order to produce these products. Currently as I'm sure you know the palladium and many of the metals used in then those rechargeable batteries are mined by people in third world countries and assembled and processed for use in China who then sells those products. If we could find a new fuel source or actually be allowed to do experiments on Hydrogen fuel cell technology for smaller scale things such as e bikes that would revolutionize the world but the reason they do not exist is because it would put the market of all electronic and internal combustion engines out of the market without a doubt. Of course the majority of people would convert their current vehicles so that they could run using a hydrogen fuel cell. But the traditional internal combustion engine running off of gasoline wood no longer have any hold on the market as hydrogen fuel vehicles would be virtually free to drive with regard to fuel costs. There are many people who have built their own cars using plans off the internet that run entirely off of a hydrogen producing mechanism. But these things cannot be patented or sold to the public due to rules and regulations having nothing even to do with the safety aspect. It's a very interesting thing to look into as hydrogen fuel cell technology is almost a limitless fuel source. All that requires is water And a small amount of electricity,
In addition electricity rates are up 46% since 2019 for the power companies to upgrade the power grid. Everyone in Commifornia are picking up the tab for people who are better off financially and can afford an EV! This is literally stealing from the poor to give to the rich.
There are dozens of windmills around where I live. They don't always have wind to turn them. Where I live, the sun doesn't shine at night. So we need coal and oil to generate a continuing base of electric power when alternate sources don't produce.
@@erie910 Nuclear is the way forward. That is indisputable. But fossil fuels have to do until then. A primarily renewable energy powered system is nothing more than pipe dream, imo
Converting natural gas and even coal to electrical powerat a power plant to charge a battery miles away to power an electric motor to move a 4,000 lb vehicle is STILL more efficient than ICE vehicles. Gas engines are incredibly inefficient. I don't have any issue with you driving them, and I completely oppose EV mandates and tax credits. But we do have to acknowledge the facts of the matter.
If solar was efficient then these EV cars would have them on their roof and power companies would have them on every rooftop, on every mall , etc. I drive from Va to Me and an EV would not currently be desirable. Most charging stations are far away from the business buildings that they are attached to because of the time it takes to charge
@@ytmndanask anyone on the transmission or generation side of electricity production and they will laugh their kiester off! We are already near max capacity in most markets. Evs make up
@@WilliamBoone-hp1rx Most people, including myself, point to charging times. It takes like, what, an hour to charge? Even if you half that, you're still waiting 30 minutes to charge your car. Petroleum cars take at most two minutes to refuel. That said, overall, I don't hate electric cars; I think they definitely have a place on the road. I just think there is a lot of vitriol towards them due to the fact that it seems as though the government is trying to force our hands into eliminating petroleum cars.
Two things - does your flat have a gas station at it? If not, then how on earth do you manage to get gas?!? Second, charging stations are not often as noticeable as gas stations. They don't need their own separate buildings since they don't present the same explosive hazards as gas stations. Every EV can locate the nearest charger, and there are tons of apps that update in real-time with locations, the status of chargers at those locations, and often the price per kWh.
@@TheRoark85 If it only takes 2 minutes, then you don't drive very far at all. Get an EV, plug it in while you go shopping, eat in a restaurant, read a book in a library, or any number of other things that people do on the daily and you wouldn't even have to waste that two minutes. Not to mention that most of those places offer free charging.
Sen. Kennedy is amazing! How he is so clever at his "interrogation" Tactics are brilliant. I would love him to move higher up in government like Supreme Court!

The Push on All Ev's is just Wrong and actually deadly on a Large scale... The weight of these vehicles is too much for our roads.. never mind the Strain on the Grid They should have continued to promote hybrids, imo
Then they will abolish public transportation so it will be back to walking or riding bicycles, but we can’t do that because we can’t afford RUBBER for tires. WHAT WILL WE DO???
Because the NWO coup wants to do everything it can to demoralize and tyrannize the American people in every way it can all at once. Success depends on it.
Because it gives the government more control over each individual. If they can shut down your bank account and they can shut down your car, and they control your food, they control you.
Having worked in maintenance at a plant where electric forklifts were used, I burned more propane in a conventional forklift going out to carry electric lifts to the chargers than the electric lifts saved. It’s a joke and not a funny one.
*INFRASTRUCTURE* Quite building too many EVs until we have literally the foundation of what powers them under control. For this to work, you basically need as many charging stations as gas stations
Total bullshit. They only eat tires if the driver is an idiot. Don't floor it at every light, and the tires will last as long as on any other vehicle. I'm at almost 50k miles on mine and still have about 50% of my tread left. Granted, the tires I want to replace them with will be about $286 per, but only because I am opting for the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires.

Let’s spend billions of dollars a year so that the temperature in 2124 is 0.01 degrees cooler. Biggest money scam ever created.
EV's are so much worse for the environment than any ICE vehicle. People are so dumb.
One INDISPUTABLE FACT the MSM-DNC never will report, is that approx 7 times more people die each year from extreme cold than from extreme heat. So the Green Nazis are not only advocating limiting a gas that all plant life needs to survive but are advocating killing more humans with cold.
Actually its 0,0003%.
@@Kededian If that, evs don't power them selves, the energy still has to come from power plants.
Yes B’y!
Drill baby drill! Get gas and oil prices down to what it was with Trump and the EV is done. Trump2024
EV had been done in Asia for awhile. It's ironic that Asians are much more perceptive to the potential and inevitable failure of EVs. Sure there is a rise but it's still not dominant enough to overtake ICE cars. Malaysia for example, has such cheap petrol, the citizens prefers ICE over EV. Singapore, where cars are ridiculously expensive, is a great city to go 100% EV, but due to battery warranties and lifespan, many would choose not to buy an EV, simply because of lack of 3rd party servicing and battery replacement services. The only 2 countries that are seeing a rise in EV sales are China and Thailand. China because they have tons of car brands, and Thailand because they want cheap luxury and EVs in general are cheap luxury. But they are horrible to drive in Thailand, especially if you need to go to different provinces.
I honestly do not believe that EVs will ever overtake ICEs simply because gas is still an option and so long as battery life of EVs are still not more than 10years, it will never overtake it.
Amennnnn!
Where do the approximately 100 million people who don't have a driveway, let alone a garage, and have to park at the curb charge their EVs? 100 million extension cords across sidewalks??
Sounds like a slip-fall lawyer's dream come true.

yes you get hazardous waste, way worse than og emissions. but its not just that, the production also causes emissions, equal to an average car driving for approximately 30k miles.
sustainability is just a buzzword for dummies who only see the trojan horse and could never guess the reality behind/in it.
When the Hell is Congress gonna start charging (No pun Intended) these people for contempt of Congress?
Never. Congress does nothing.
Never unless they put on a MAGA hat and join the Trump administration.
I've been asking that for years now. They have all of these experts testifying before them under oath they all lie through the skin of their teeth and nothing is ever done about it. What's the point of this political theater? Who cares that these people are getting yelled at. They're still allowed to go on doing the horrible things they're doing. Hot air is just that. Hot air.

We are told to turn down the AC because of load on the electric grid but there is power to charge EVs
Totally as joke. Households are encouraged to set AC at 85 degrees, but go into a huge government or state building and you need a coat m.
Not in Commiefornia. They’re already telling people not th charge their cars at certain times because the grid can’t handle it. Imagine what it’s going to be like when no one vmcam buy anything but an EV in CommieFornistan!

Why is the Gov giving $7500 to couples making $250,000/year and putting our tax dollars directly into the car manufacturer's pocket? Horrible policy.
Because politicians are so out of touch, and so rich from being corrupt, they think $250,000 is poverty level. Anyone under that under that is sitting with bloated bellies naked on a stump with flies in their eyes.

That Davis guy represents 90% of Americans, "I didn't buy one because I may need to drive 450-500 miles." EXACTLY! When you actually need to drive you want a car you can trust will keep running whether you're in California, Iowa, Florida, or NY.
Agree! I live in Texas. These cars just don’t fit my needs. It’s not unusual to drive 2.5 -3 hrs to get to the next big city. Much of that is open highway. Few places to charge. If the battery fails they are basically bricked until I can afford to 6k - 15K or more to replace it.
Drive an EV in the WINTER in Iowa or New York!!!! 💥💥😂
@bluebonnetbunny4813 same here. I'm in Dallas but I drive home to Illinois regularly with my dog, besides the fact that I just enjoy to drive. It's just not feasible.
@raallen1468 oh trust me I went to school in both places (Iowa City and Syracuse). Outside of the Northeast the US is not built for public transport or railways.
It's more about control than anything else. When you understand that those who want to be in control of you don't want you driving 500 miles in one day it will all become much clearer to you.
I work with Ev-chargers, Circle K and Zap-tech etc. It is useless tech. The chargers overheat and burn up very often, and no one have any idea what to do with the used chargers. My warehouse is 50% full of useless Electric Waste that no one wants to deal with.

They are full of BS ..
I got out of a movie around 11pm just last week and I had parked on the other side of the mall. I’m walking to my car and I see this line of like 8 vehicles from afar and I couldn’t tell what was going on…
As I got closer I realized they were waiting in line to charge their cars at one of three charging stations in the mall parking lot.
Blew my mind. These people were waiting an hour or more to charge their vehicle at 11pm on a Saturday night; some had their kids in the car.
I hopped into my gas powered car and happily drove off.
That sounds like poor planning on their parts. Some people get so excited on the performance model test drives and buy one. I drove one once and the exceleration was incredible.
And what they charge their car with is fossil fuel generated.
They love other peoples finances. Sick
Exactly, that’s why Princeton and the other overpriced universities have billions in the bank, yet Biden is stealing money from we the people to pay off the student loans of their graduates. It’s criminal!

Love this man! Our Country needs so many more like him!
No good answer to incentivized costs
5 points to Senator Kennedy!
Can't charge them . Cost to much. Can't drive far. Can't fix them.
Distance is competitive and competition will make EVs comparable to ICE vehicles. Repairs are far less than internal combustion vehicles. My dealer sees me three times a year for the ICE vehicle and once for the EV. Tires are more expensive for the EV. I love both my ICE and EV. But it is a matter of choice for everyone and not a government mandate.
@@williamwilke1944 Ah, exCUSE me, but hasn't the federal gooberment (Biden administration) recently tried to mandate EV's?? Sometime around March to April of this year?? Don't be obtuse.

I'm a 64 year old Proud White Male. I will Not buy an electric car in my life time! That being said, I am looking at an E-bike. But we need to make them safer, cheaper, and most of all..we need to make them in America. END OF STORY!!!
E-bikes are good because they are good for short commutes just like EV's for short commutes but EV's are not good
for long commutes !
Those EV bikes are absolute trash and headaches for drivers on the road.
I stand with you Mr white man.
@@gregorygant4242 What do you consider a long commute? The average commute in the US is about 42 miles round-trip (almost exactly what mine is). I can make that drive for 7 days straight without needing to charge once.
I agree that an eBay could be the most I would be getting myself ever involved with regard to electric transportation but as far as it goes regarding the actual components I do not know how much of those precious minerals that are required for the battery itself can be mined and sourced within the United States as far as I know our richest deposits are on landlocked areas either controlled by Native American treaty or companies that have no interest in Mining them and they are more of a financial holding. So unfortunately if you do not agree with electronic vehicles in the first place which it seems we both do not, than everything regarding electronic bikes or E bikes would have to fall into the same category as we would still be reliant on Chinese made batteries and base precious metals in order to produce these products. Currently as I'm sure you know the palladium and many of the metals used in then those rechargeable batteries are mined by people in third world countries and assembled and processed for use in China who then sells those products. If we could find a new fuel source or actually be allowed to do experiments on Hydrogen fuel cell technology for smaller scale things such as e bikes that would revolutionize the world but the reason they do not exist is because it would put the market of all electronic and internal combustion engines out of the market without a doubt. Of course the majority of people would convert their current vehicles so that they could run using a hydrogen fuel cell. But the traditional internal combustion engine running off of gasoline wood no longer have any hold on the market as hydrogen fuel vehicles would be virtually free to drive with regard to fuel costs. There are many people who have built their own cars using plans off the internet that run entirely off of a hydrogen producing mechanism. But these things cannot be patented or sold to the public due to rules and regulations having nothing even to do with the safety aspect. It's a very interesting thing to look into as hydrogen fuel cell technology is almost a limitless fuel source. All that requires is water And a small amount of electricity,
I love this man!❤❤❤
California has the most unstable electric power grid, yet have the most EV'S, WHAT???????
In addition electricity rates are up 46% since 2019 for the power companies to upgrade the power grid. Everyone in Commifornia are picking up the tab for people who are better off financially and can afford an EV! This is literally stealing from the poor to give to the rich.
A part of the plan
Wait until they start having to pay 30 cents a mile to subsidize gas tax losses
they were towing running generators behind evs a year or two back too
Because their gas is the highest.$$$
EV's have a much higher carbon footprint than a gasoline car.
Much much higher, not to mention all the children that mine the minerals for the batteries.

4:06 bro just whispered her the answer and she said thank you

My question to the panel would be: how do they think that electricity is made???
There are dozens of windmills around where I live. They don't always have wind to turn them. Where I live, the sun doesn't shine at night. So we need coal and oil to generate a continuing base of electric power when alternate sources don't produce.
@@erie910 Nuclear is the way forward. That is indisputable. But fossil fuels have to do until then. A primarily renewable energy powered system is nothing more than pipe dream, imo
Converting natural gas and even coal to electrical powerat a power plant to charge a battery miles away to power an electric motor to move a 4,000 lb vehicle is STILL more efficient than ICE vehicles. Gas engines are incredibly inefficient. I don't have any issue with you driving them, and I completely oppose EV mandates and tax credits. But we do have to acknowledge the facts of the matter.
If solar was efficient then these EV cars would have them on their roof and power companies would have them on every rooftop, on every mall , etc. I drive from Va to Me and an EV would not currently be desirable. Most charging stations are far away from the business buildings that they are attached to because of the time it takes to charge
@@ytmndanask anyone on the transmission or generation side of electricity production and they will laugh their kiester off! We are already near max capacity in most markets. Evs make up

@@WilliamBoone-hp1rx Most people, including myself, point to charging times. It takes like, what, an hour to charge? Even if you half that, you're still waiting 30 minutes to charge your car. Petroleum cars take at most two minutes to refuel. That said, overall, I don't hate electric cars; I think they definitely have a place on the road. I just think there is a lot of vitriol towards them due to the fact that it seems as though the government is trying to force our hands into eliminating petroleum cars.

I live in a flat & there are no public charging stations anywhere nearby that i know about. Why would i want one?
Two things - does your flat have a gas station at it? If not, then how on earth do you manage to get gas?!?
Second, charging stations are not often as noticeable as gas stations. They don't need their own separate buildings since they don't present the same explosive hazards as gas stations. Every EV can locate the nearest charger, and there are tons of apps that update in real-time with locations, the status of chargers at those locations, and often the price per kWh.
@@eli6019 it takes 2minutes to fill up at a gas station & there are 6 station on my route to work. I don't need one at home.
@@TheRoark85 If it only takes 2 minutes, then you don't drive very far at all. Get an EV, plug it in while you go shopping, eat in a restaurant, read a book in a library, or any number of other things that people do on the daily and you wouldn't even have to waste that two minutes. Not to mention that most of those places offer free charging.

They only eat tires if the driver is an idiot. Don't floor it at every light, and the tires will last as long as on any other vehicle.
