  1.  @strandeddeep8745  That 39k is based on government assistance. The real price is much higher.

  2. The electricity grid does not have enough capability to handle electric cars being charged.

  3. Foreign cars are not better that is just a myth and the power of US media.

  4.  @MikeYoungeasytravel  You are full of crap at best I am sorry to say. The grants are available now when very few people have EV but the moment everybody has them the grants and deductions will disappear. There is not enough copper on earth to make all the cars electric.

  5.  @larryclark9380  Cars that are produced in China are on a per license basis. That means western companies license their car designs to Chinese auto manufacturers to build. All those foreign cars in China are not real they are fact Chinese cars built from substandard materials with foreign badges on them. At some point those cars will have different badges on them when their market place has been fully developed. People that analyse and study this have been warning about this for years and nobody is paying attention. At some point China will switch those brands and then be selling them to us and undercut our whole economy and guess what nobody will care as long as they can buy the products at half their current market value.

  6. There is not enough copper either on earth to build the systems.

  7. I am going to give people another reality that they do not see coming but I hope not to freak most of you out. There is not enough copper on earth to make all the cars EV. SO that means there will be less cars in the future. What this will do is increase the cost of cars considerably to the point that a normal family car will cost $200,000 in today's money. In our life times we will all be in a situation where transport will be at levels seen in the 1800s and we will all be eating bugs. And nobody will remember what the world was truly like as the media will be lying to people. We are all going to see 1984 in our life times. I understand that most of you probably do not believe what I am telling you but the reality is there is not enough copper in reserve to build electric cars and that also applies to renewable energy.

  8.  @daydreamer8373  They will jack the price of solar up. You clearly are not thinking straight.

  9.  @michaelh5055  Every car manufacturer is having issues. And that applies in every country. Everything is a race to the bottom. Governments have regulated cars industry to the point that innovation has not happened in decades. People seem to be confusing meeting government regulations with innovations.

  10. The problem is that there will be no alternatives.

  11.  @HustleMuscleGhias  That makes no sense at all.

  12.  @texastriguy  So by recycled by law do you mean they are shipped overseas? Germany exports hundreds of thousands of tons of waste to be taken care of by developing countries. Tell us is that what you were talking about?

  13.  @williamhodgden8970  It will not make the investors rich though as it will not work out by 2030. It will take at least 20 years on top of that to go completely electric.

  14.  @daniellove162  Can you explain how they are going to get electric vehicles to become dominants? It was obvious how ICE vehicles were going to outperform horses around 1920.

  15. Ford are finished they are carrying about $160 billion of debt and have a market cap of about $60 billion. Spending 30 billion on developing electric cars is going to sink them. Short term share price increases means nothing.

  16.  @randychristensen7173  There is not enough copper in existance to do what they want to do.
