  1. Considering some of the best Li ion battery have the density of over 400 Wh/kg , I would say that LFP have a long way to go before the former can be called obsolete.

  2. Wow, those villagers must be pretty rich to afford those Tesla.

  3. There are a few things lot of people don't understands about these enforcement agencies and why they seems so slow to respond: 1) They are actually relatively underfunded and understaffed compared to the myriad of scam and fraud around. That is whey unless there is already a dedicated team/investigators working on the the case , new case got put on the backburner. Bureaucracy slows this process even further . 2) Gathering sufficient actionable (ones that would stick in court) evidence/proof take time and resource , hence why it can took months or even years into the investigation. Many time , the investigator were already working (months usually) into the case when a news or other outlets broke the news of the potential scam. 3)In case of certain frauds, agencies such as the SEC may establish receivership to claw the moneys from the "winners" in scam and reimburse the "losers" of such fraud. However , it is impossible to recover 100% of the loss (though high percentage of recovery have been achieved for some ponzi/pyramid scams in the past) and it is much. much , much harder to do so for publicly traded company such as Nikola, hence why they usually opted for a punitive (those many feel the fines are still too low) fines on top of jail sentence for such. Of course this have some may erroneously claims that agencies like are doing this to squeeze some "pocket money".

  4.  @NeatoboyAus  Unfortunately, as former fanboy of Elon Musk , I do know a lot about him. I am still a huge fan of both Tesla and Space X, but I no longer like Musk as a person. Contrary to what The Electric Viking erroneously said, it is possible to dislike Musk and still like his companies.

  5. To be fair, Musk is rather horrible person. I'm talking as a former fanboy.

  6. The only thing that will stop BYD and other Chinese companies form dominating the EV market US and EU would be the inevitable protective economic policies that no doubt these countries will implement. We've seen this with in the past with US and Japanese cars.

  7. The reason they couldn't fast forward any pro EV incentives : Republicans.
    7
  8.  @davelpz3340  And yet the conservatives in the US ran on anti-environmental policy to the point denying the science behind climate change. Did you forget Trump war on renewable energy? If you are conservative and also an care about the environments , you are a minority among your people. Conserving the environment (or even life) is not really on the agenda of US conservatives. Also, the idea that liberal want communism is as stupid as saying conservatives wants racist fascisms .

  9. " Tesla used to sell it's vehicles at a loss before they became profitable." That is both right and wrong. Technically Tesla always makes moneys (they sold it way above production cost) on each vehicles they sold , the problems was the cost of expansion was higher than the revenue. Tesla solves that by selling more vehicles, something that would be impossible if they lose money on very EV sold.

  10.  @NeatoboyAus  Why do I think a narcistic , hypocritical ,self serving egomaniacal man l like Elon Musk is a horrible persons? Maybe you should ask why people don't think a narcistic , hypocritical ,self serving egomaniacal man isn't a horrible person.

  11.  @jochendemnitz3149  And somehow you don't think that they will tax hydrogen?

  12.  @itekani  Weight isn't even an issue for Tesla or any other BEV. I don't know what the OP was smoking with his statements..

  13. The thing is both the Fukushima and Chernobyl reactor are based on obsolete design ( both of them are actually around the same age) and the RBMK design was notoriously flawed. Opposing nuclear just based on them is like tryin to ban consumer aviation just because the De Havilland Comet crashed. It is almost impossible for current generation nuclear power plant to suffer a meltdown let alone an explosions. The risk of catastrophic nuclear accident is astronomically low. This is even better with next gen design where such accident is physically (as in it would break the laws of physics if such accidents occurs) impossible . Had we not allow Chernobyl to spooked us into abandoning nuclear, we could have solved most of the Climate Change problems by now.. Even some of the so called "green" movements were horrifically misguide : for example Germany myopic decision to shut down the safer and cleaner nuclear plants for more dangerous, more polluting and more radioactive coal burning plants and importing natural gas from Russia.

  14. Funnily enough, one Hummer EV being delivered is still far more than all of of Cybertruck that was delivered in 2021.

  15. Have anyone also checked the rate of racial discrimination in a union factory vs Tesla's?

  16.  @brandonlong2796  Imaging thinking it take millions to install Tesla supercharger and they only install 2 stalls. Imagine being this wrong and confident about it , it makes no sense .LOL.

  17. Transport Evolved did a far better job at debunking this add that you did. Suffice to say BMW have nothing to do with this.
    4
  18. You should do a video debunking Hoovie's Garage's garbage claim about EV.

  19. Tesla really need to roll out those $25K car.
    4
  20.  @godzillamothra5983  Depends on which countries/regions, I suppose. Around here, rural villagers are barely middle class and can hardly afford the cheapest Tesla. Heck, here you can literally retire and never work again (provided you already own a home) with the money needed for the cheapest Tesla on the market.
    4
  21. If you are lookin for an unbiased EV news , then you are at the wrong place. Sam Evan /The Electric Viking is very biased in his coverage of EV news. It is ok if you know what his bias are (he's a Tesla and Chinese EV fanboy) , just don't ' spread misinformation on how "unbiased' he is. There are are some unbiased EV news channel out there e such as Transport Evolved.

  22. You forgot to add long range high capacity aircrafts and large scale static power storage . Hydrogen scales best when the weigh requirements mean that batteries are too heavy and strangely enough where weigh isn't an issue at all (static storage) but instead amount of energy that can be stored for long time (think storing summer energy for winter).
    4
  23.  @flodjod  Firsly , Hydrogen isn't (and never has and never will be ) competing with solar power for energy generation . It's competing with battery for energy storage Secondly, It still have a huge weight advantage over batteries.
    4
  24.  @np4029  Yes, but hydrogen isn't that technology. The laws of physics itself mean that hydrogen will never be cheaper than BEV for consumer vehicles. In the future they may be techs that make BEV obsolete, however HFCEV isn't and won't be that tech simply because it need to break the laws of physics to do so.

  25.  @Scooter-K  I wouldn't' say Biden is the best President ever, he is just far better than Trump.
    4
  26. "With gasoline around $5/gal (thanks a lot Joe Biden) " Jokes aside, you do realise the that current high oil price have little to do with Joe Biden, right?
    4
  27.  @walterndlovu6329  BEV is cheaper to buy and run than a HFCV.
    3
  28.  @walterndlovu6329  Again, why don't think hydrogen will be taxed too? IF BEV is getting taxed, then there is no reason not to tax HFCEV and hydrogen fuel too.

  29. I think it is rich of you calling them acting on emotional conjecture when your channel is all about that.

  30. More like they hated Trump more than Biden.

  31.  @skinnymoonbob  Public transportation is cheaper if you don't want to own your car.

  32.  @kuznacbendelejev6924  I don't think a $50K plus car is for the medium class or lower .

  33. You kidding , right? This channel have always been one of those Tesla pom pom girl from day one, and only now you are unsubscribing?

  34. And here I thought you would like to focus on the positivity and not spread FUD.

  35.  @FatboySE103  Did you post without reading the thread?

  36. Funnily enough Biden himself did really publicly said "Lets Go Brandon!" on live TV , showing that unlike Trump (who would be fuming at any slight) , Biden don't' really care about that lame insult.

  37.  @Patrick-bu5vy  Except that guys wasn't spouting any facts. It was at best opinions.
    3
  38.  @Patrick-bu5vy  That is not facts , that is pure negative propaganda.. The facts is there have been less accident per capita among FSD user compared to regular driving.

  39. Don't Mitsubishi have lot of other business besides cars? I mean they literally build the F-2 fighter bombers (just like how they build the Zeroes in WW2)..

  41. Several independent studies have concluded that even in the worst case scenario in which all the electricity used to power battery electric vehicles (BEV for short) came strictly form burning coals, the BEV would still be less polluting and produced less greenhouse gas than an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles through both of their lifetime. Remember :this was for 100% coal, with the energy grid getting more green a BEV would be less polluting than an ICE in just 2-5 years the moment the ratio of green energy for the grid reaches over 50%
    2
  42.  @sergeypavlov7249  That is because Hydrogen can't compete with batteries for consumer vehicles. Hydrogen cars only have two advantage over BEV : refuel time and range. The former doesn't really matter when you can recharge overnight at home or at works and newer battery technology is rapidly catching up to hydrogen's range. In all other metrics such as cost (both to set up and own) , complexity and performance for consumer vehicle , a HFCEV are lesser than BEV.
    2
  43.  @sergeypavlov7249  Public transports and heavy utility vehicle are not consumer vehicles. If you are going to talk about cost then remember these few thing: 1) HFCEV is still far more expensive than a BEV to own an maintain. 2) It cost more to set up a hydrogen logistics networks than it is to install a level 1or 2 charger on very available public parking space. 3) BEV is getting cheaper and we are rapidly approaching price parity with ICE
    2
  44. So many of the clips used here were that of nuclear power plant instead of coal.
    2
  45. I despise Trump voters, the truth is no sane , thinking decent person would support Trump at this point. But if any conservatives want to convert to EV that that is a good thing. Unfortunately conservative leaders and governments are very anti-EV. They literally is still trying to pass legislations to punish EV adoption. And Eric, you are half right about the media that are spreading the divisiveness in the US, it is the RIGHT-Wing media that is created division in the US. Who do you think spread the Big Lie that lead to January 6th and spread disinformation about EV, Climate Change and vaccination in the first place But the way, Russel Brand is one of those crazy idiot grifters . He is not someone whose opinion worth listening to.

  46. Ah, the Green Party of Germany. The same pasty that behind Germany's shutting down their nuclear reactor in favour for more radioactive and more dangerous coal power plants .
    2
  47. Only morons think FCEV are the future of consumer EV. FCEV are a dead end technology that will go nowhere for consumer EV.
    2
  48. 6:45 , umm .. No, upfront cost is problems because they simply don't have that much money to fork out o anew vehicle, not because they are "uneducated " on the cost benefit. This is at best ignorant and disconnected and at worst horrendously condescending . If we want to move away from fossil fuels, we need less $50K cars and more lower middle class cars.

  49.  @brunoheggli2888  I don't see how Tesla 's margins will "sink like a rock" .

  50.  @BarryObaminable  Thanks for confirming what I said.

  51. This channel will only cover layoff new idf it involves GM , For or any other companies that isn't Tesla.

  52. Multiple independent studies have shown that even if 100% of energy needed to power a BEV came from coal, the BEV is still less polluting than an equivalent ICEV within both of their lifetime.

  53. Let see if they will arrive before Ukraine falls.

  54. Really ? I thought the most important Tesla news this month is them getting sued The California Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) for alleged mass racial discrimination .

  55.  @itekani  Saying it will never be safe is both naïve and misleading at best. Technology moves an and thing that were deathtraps in the past (automobile , trains and aeroplanes) are now very safe. We should judge their future iteration on the obsolete technology of the past. For the records the RBMK design used in Chernobyl was extremely flawed and was the main reason why the incident happened in the first place. No other reactors have the same fatal flaw as the RBMK design. Currently it is physically (as in it would break the laws of physics) for current reactors designs to suffer the same catastrophe as worse, Even in the worse case scenario all that would happen i the reactor bein destroyed rather that suffering a meltdown of explode.
    2
  56.  @johannbrauer9285  Firstly, that is not rational fear. The risk with currents with reactor in operation are so small that it is more likely that an asteroid strike would destroy a city or a country rather that any nuclear incident of the same scale occurring . people need to remember that Chernobyl is an anomaly . I mean more people have died to airplanes cashes ( and being killed by cows) than all of the nuclear disaster in the world combined (take not that over 99.9% of peacetime nuclear death came from The Chernobyl incident). Secondly, as I said that chance of such catastrophe happening with next generation designs is literally zero. these reactors (molten salts eg) are designed in such a way that even in the worst case scenario all that would happen is the reactors being complete destroyed/unsalvageable rather than them having a meltdown or exploding . My De Havilland Comet comparisons was apt. The aircrafts suffered from huge fatal design flaws (its window) that would eventually doomed the plane . Once the flaw was discovered the design was immediately refitted. The same can be said of nuclear reactors of the past.

  57. I think you fail to see how a horrible person Musk turns out to be.
    2
  58.  @audience2  Do we even know what supposed "charity" he donated to? For all we know it could be as fake as the Trump Foundation. As for him employing 150,000 people , he needed them to run his company , otherwise he would have fired them like he did to Tesla's PR team. "reestablished American leadership in space, and is acceleratering the world's transition to renewable energy. But you think he's a bad dude." To think that all of those are mutually exclusive to each other is naïve at best. That is like saying a fireman or doctor who save human live can' also be rapist or a racist person.
    2
  59.  @TheDocLamkin  Sam have a habit of disregarding/not covering any negative Tesla news such Tesla having to to pay $100 million after losing a racial discrimination case or when it was revealed that Tesla may manipulated data to overstate how safe their autodrive tech really is. Favouritism by omission is not good sign of reliability or integrity.
    2
  60. There are new tech that make storing hydrogen safe and cheap for the long run (such as one where thy are stored in tapes) , Not saying the hydrogen will ever beat batteries for consumer land vehicles, just saying that there're solution for those issues.
    2
  61.  @flodjod  It seem you are not up to date with the latest breakthrough in hydrogen storage.
    2
  62. Because Of how important t Mitsubishi and Nissan to the Japanese national security (they produced high tech weapons like jet fighters, tanks , artillery and missiles for Japanese Self Défense Force), I doubt that the Japanese governments would allow any Chinese linked entity to acquire those companies. That be like a Chinese company buying Lockheed Martin.
    2
  63. My theory on why Tesla cost so low is that Tesla is willing to lose money on building superchargers just like how razor , gaming console and ink jet printer loses money of their. "products". Unlike the other charging companies that the mains business is charging, EV and installing chargers, Tesla merely used them as perks for their real products.
    2
  64. Funnily enough, one Hummer EV being delivered is still far more than all of of Cybertruck that was delivered in 2021.
    2
  65.  @superkd7030  Wow, triggered much? I guess Tesla fanbois do have very thin skin. We all know the reason why Tesla couldn't deliver any Cybertruck in 2021 is the same reason why Rivian , Ford and GM couldn't delivers theirs in 2020: they simply weren't ready for production at that point.
    2
  66. I agree with him. Rivan is more aimed at the luxury market, company like Ford is more aiming for the work and practical side as shown by their vehicle to grid capability, and Cybertruck... Well I agree that the Venn diagram doesn't necessarily overlap.
    2
  67. Why would they pay you for not working? Tesla have always care more about cost savings than their worker benefits. More likely or not that if this is successful would led to lay off of most of their workers.
    2
  68.  @MyUniversalUniversity  Oh dear, it seem someone doesn't like my espousing how "great" Tesla treated their workers in the past and keep yeeting my post .
    2
  69.  @MyUniversalUniversity  Yes, taking care of them like firing their entire PR divisions without notice or replacing them with temps (which receives less worker protections and benefits). It's funny that you think they did stock split for their employees. The biggest beneficiaries are stock holders, majority of them don't work for Tesla.
    2
  70. Disagree, Sam is a bit too biased toward to be the tops.

  71. In do not need the media to convince me Elon is a bad guy. His own action convince me he is a bad guy . This is coming from a former Elon Musk fanboy.

  74. I could be the Electric Viking pulling conclusions out as his ass as usual.

  75. If governments is serious , it would be better to mandate parkin space (either public or private ones)be installed with level 1 or 2 chargers than this "solution".

  79.  @swannvictor1388  It wasn't Japanese whaling that nearly drove most whale specie to near extinction, it was mostly Western whaling practises. Japan actually have little impact during the heydays of whaling.
    1
  80.  @swannvictor1388  Beside Japan there are few countries that still hunt whales such as Iceland and Norway (which lead the the number of whales killed) . In all these countries whaling is supported by governments and would've died out on its own if not for that. Currently whaling isn't the biggest threat to whale. Factor like ship collision and bycatches (over 300K whale and dolphin dies annually from this alone) as well habitat are a bigger factor threatening their survival .

  81. I disagree. Sam is too much of fanboy to be a good news source on Tesla or Elon Musk.

  82. Hydrogen my be useful for aircrafts and ships and even static energy storage, but it is a dead end for consumer vehicles.

  83.  @Mrbfgray  If we judge Elon Musk based on his character alone, he will not come out clean. So fare his contribution to humanity and Earth outweigh his bad action, but he he continue on this path that may not be true any longer .

  84. I used to be an Elon Musk fanboy, but after seeing what he have done these past few years, I can no longer says that he is iMO a good person nor can I unequivocally supports him . That said I am still fan of both Tesla (even after their racial discrimination case) and Space X.

  85.  @Mrbfgray  The Whole Elon Musk being self serving , hypocritical, narcissistic egomaniac with a thin skin. It isn't so bad if he kept them in check, but he doesn't and those "qualities" do interfere with other people live or pit them in danger.
    1
  86.  @Mrbfgray  Have you not paid any attention t hat Elon Musk have ben saying and doing all these years? I used to be a Musk fanboi too , you know . There are plenty of thing that shows him being self serving , hypocritical, narcissistic egomaniac with a thin skin. : 1 ) Him condemning governments support and subsidies despite Tesal reliance on those same thing in their early years (and even today). Some could even argue that Tesla woul have gon bankrupted years ago if not for those aids. 2)Him believing that he know more about Covid 19 that medical professions and scientist who are fighting the disease. Eve to to the post where he spread dangerous fake news about the disease. 3) Publicly accusing an innocents man (a hero at that) of a heinous crime just because he hurts Elon 's feelings. 4)That whole spat with Biden just because Biden (stupidly) ignored to say Tesla and Elon Musk. 5) His claim about no wanting to be political and then followed immediately with him making multiple political statements . 6) Him claiming that California was impeding Tesla business while moving to a state that bans the sale of Tesla and trying to introduce regulation against EV (EV tax). 7) Complaining about bias news and suggesting that establishing a pro Musk populist "news network" would solve that . I can go on an on about what he have did that turned me off from being his fanboy (remember , I used to be one). Jus like Musk Watch, I became jaded an cynical of him due to his own actions.

  87.  @Mrbfgray  Do you?
    1
  88.  @p0kerp1aya  What does CNN have anything with what Musk did. None of what I said was sourced from CNN, all of them came from Elon Musk himself . Are you trying to say that Elon Musk is spreading propaganda and " social programming ".
    1
  89.  @Mrbfgray  1"it was GM not Tesla that lobbied for those subsidies and they didn't come close to offsetting fossil fuel subsidies. GET IT?? They have never and certainly not now depend on them. " So you are saying GM lobbied for Tesla to get billion of dollars of tax exemption ., carbon tax regulatory credit and EV sale credit? How kind of GM to do that for Tesla. Unless you are blind or not paid any attention to Tesla financials, you would realise Tesla received billion is government support and would've gone bankrupted without them.. " do you realize that our Covid response caused 1MX more damage than it prevented? Shutdowns and all the rest saved none and killed many That is not disputable and should have been suspected from day one. WHO THE HELL are YOU to tell me to lockdown?!? Do it yourself." Wow, you are literally spewing fake news that have been factually debunked. All data showed that measure such as social distancing , mask mandate , vaccination even shutdown have saved million of lives. In fact they have been no study that support the bogus idea of they killed more people than not implementing them Remember Musk Tweeted on how they should be zero Covid case in the US by April of 2020? or how he said kids are immune to Covid 19? or How he spread fake number of Covid 19 death and infection rate? Yep , he did all of that. "3)WTF??" You never heard of Musk's Vernon Unsworsth debacle ? "4) Biden is owned by the money he collected for decades from the most corrupt entity in America, the UAW. You OK with that?? Nice strawman. So you're OK with a butthurst Musk's ineffectual rant because Biden ignored him ? "5) WTF again?? 6) WTF????" Seriously? You fanboi over Elon Musk and you know nothing of what he said and did?
    1
  90.  @earthwizz  It seem you were ill-informed did happened: Unlike Elon Musk (who did nothing) , Vernon Unsworth actually did contributed to the rescue efforts and he didn't really publicise what he did (unlike Musk who wen full media frenzy with his useless subs). Which one of the two isa hero and which one seem to in it for clout, again? 'There are always a lot of people closely watching Musk and nobody was talking about his involvement until pedo guy had his biased little rant. " Wrong again, what actually happened was a news channel was interviewing Unsworth after the conclusion of the successful rescue. The reporter who interviewed him keep on trying to bring Musk into the conversation despite Musk's zero contribution to the effort . This annoys Unsworth (again unlike Musk, Unsworth did participated in the rescue ) and blasted Musk impractical and useless coffin subs. This cause significant emotional damage to Elon Musk . In response to getting his feeling hurt by Unsworsth , Musk immaturely retaliated by publicly falsely accusing him of committing a heinous crime and even doubling down when confronted. No sane man would think Musk is in the right here. 'Get HELP dude. It's not the universe it's YOU." You should give this advice to Elon Musk.

  91.  @Crunch_dGH  Yet you are incapable of refuting a single thing I said. Such limited intelligence is to be expected from a fanboi.

  92. Welp, sounds like Tesla is planning on another mass firing.

  93. 7:45 You should stop parroting this. Until we found out what charity/cause Musk donated his 6 billion worth of stocks to , we don't know is it is really a charity or just a "charity" .
    1
  94.  @zekew2418  That is a lot of blind accusation you are throwing . I guess you really a a ;loyal Elon fanboi. I wonder what these people get get from being a sycophant... "Maybe you should say "it's billionaire's dodge to pay less taxes." Maybe you should read some of my post and see that I don't hate billionaire for being billionaire. There are plenty of billonare who are great philanthropist: Chunk Feeney, Warren Buffet and Bill Gates (Who in my opinion isn't a good person but a great philantropist). Even someone like Dolly Parton (who isn't a billionaire) would come to mind when it comes to charity. Then they are one who don't care or even worse create fake charities to scam people (Donal Trump comes to mind). "I remember you saying Elon's $50 million dollar donation to St Jude's children's hospital was only a publicity stunt with the Inspiration flight to get free advertising for SpaceX ." Am I not wrong? Not only did he donated less than Isaacman did to St Jude, but he donate 50 million after Isaacman paid Space X "less than 200 million" (Isaacman own words) for the Inspiration 4 mission and handling the promotion. Musk gain a lot while expending as little efforts an cost as possible. "You just can not let your hatred of other humans I reserve my hatred to people who are awful (Trump eg). While I don't think Musk a bad enough to deserve hatred, he is not a good person . " go and work on fixing your faults, unless you believe you have none?"" Nice ad hominame. While I do have many faults (which I do trie to improve and fix) I never did anything as bad as Elon Musk. As I previously said, don't recall ever falsely accusing another person of a heinous crime(let alone an innocent hero) or spreading dangerous misinformation that would kill or hurt people. Perchance you follow your own advice and fixed your own idol worship flaws . What was that Christian saying about false idol? "how about bringing up your opinion that he is a HORRIBLE man and repeat all those derogatory adjectives you have used in previous video posts" Sure, Elon Musk is self serving , hypocritical, narcissistic egomaniac with a thin skin. It is impossible to argue otherwise based on his past actions. " open your heart and accept that others people intentions are good at least until they unequivocally prove otherwise.: I use to think Musk is a good person with good intention (why I used to be his fanboy), but then I opened my heart and my eyes and see him for what he truly is. Your should do the same. He have unequivocally proven (by his actions) that he isn't a good person . "You will be a better person, at least according to Jesus." Too bad I'm not Christian, though I am relatively religious and in my religion slander/libel greater sin than murder. Hence why I don't throw false accusation wily nilly. "Remember that thing Jesus says about casting stones, do you really have no sin and want to cast the first stone at another human being :)" Considering I never did the bad thing that Musk did, that mean I am free to cast as many stones as I want.

  95. The multiple complaints and lawsuit from his previous employees says otherwise.

  96. If the same kind of laws are applied in the free world then GM, Ford or any other companies you (the Electric Viking) have spread FUD about in the past can sue you, you should be thankful that is not the case .

  97. The same happens to me with that guy too. And no ,Tesla (and all other BEV companies. have no reason to be afraid of hydrogen. Hydrogen is a dead end for consumer vehicles.

  98. You should know by now to treat anything that came from Elon Musk with grain of salt. To say that he is a habitual exaggerators or an unreliable narrator is an understatement at this point.

  99. Until they cam out with their "25K BEV" . I doubt Tesla will drop the price of their cars.

  100. So you're saying by Musk's own logic, Tesla must be a governments funded entity.
    1
  101. I doubt adding an extra 50 or even one 100 staff for a dedicated PR departments would increase cost that much considering Tesla sold more than 1 million car this year. If you disagree than your really don't know much about economics. Having a dedicated PR team might help with quelling baseless rumors and soften the bad blow form real bad news, though I doubt Elon's huge ego would allow them to "interfere" with his own tweets and statement(no matte how destructive they may be to Tesla' brand name).

  102. Fume from both gasolines and diesel contains carcinogens (Butadiene, Benzene etc) that can lead to cancer as well a products from the combustion of these fuels . Climate Change is fact that have been accepted by all scientist . Even few climate change denier these day pivot to disclaim human's role in it (and still; failing miserably at it) rather that trying to prove it isn't happening. 'All China has done is to replace ICE cars that use catalytic converters to clean the exhaust with coal-fired electrical plants that belch out unfiltered gasses that have even more pollution than ICE cars do. " This have been proven as false. Multiple peer reviewed research/studies have shown that even if all electricity needed to power a BEV came solely form coal power plants, the BEV would still cause less pollution than an ICE within their lifetime. "Once you remove the insane idea that mankind is warming the earth EVs are just another form of transportation that most folks can't afford." So you think scientific fats are insane? Youi must one of those that think that Earth is flat or space is a lie. Since you care so much about cost rather than safety why now just put more sawdust in your food and continue asbestos and lead to make products cheaper.

  103.  @onefiniteplanet  That question just show how ignorant (or deceptive ) the OP is . Fume from both gasolines and diesel contains carcinogens (Butadiene, Benzene etc) that can lead to cancer as well a products from the combustion of these fuels .

  104.    Outside link can get removed here by youtube mod . But you can easily google everything I said ( carcinogens in gasoline and diesel eg) and found the links yourself . Heck channels that you follow (Transport Evolved, Electric Viking etc) already posted the links to the corresponding studies their previous video. Strange that you missed them.

  105.    I already did (carcinogens in gasoline and diesel, Butadiene, Benzene etc).

  106.    When I type the phrase ""How many Americans die from car exhaust a year", it lead me to an MIT study that suggest more than 53 thousand American die from automobile pollution every year. That is more than the number of American that die from traffic accidents annually. How did you miss that?
    1
  107.    I can find studies as late as 2021 produces by many academic institution (Harvard eg) came out after the one form MIT around 10 years . So yes, there are plenty of other studies and research that do back them up. As said , carcinogen compound have been found in both fume and exhaust of petroleum derived fuels.
    1
  108.    That mainly have more to do with the public ignorance on the matter , similar to how legal action against tobacco companies only came out several decades after studies that linked tobacco to health issue. There here have been court cases (such as the one in UK in 2020) where the court have rule that air pollution from traffic contributes to the death of a 9 year old asthma patients. Thing are beginning to change.

  121. But she is right that Tesla isn't selling any mass market car. At one point (whcj you can buy a Model l 3 below $40K) Tesla kinda does, but not anymore.

  122.  @user-lo4er8wy9l  You are right that Biden snubbing Tesla in order to appease to unions is stupid. However over the years it was the Republican side that are hostile to anything sounding "green" from EV to renewables to even acknowledging man made Climate Change is real . Heck, one of the republican objection to the infrastructure bill was because it gave allocation to green energy and upgrading the charging network.

  131. Talk about bullshit. What probably happened is some liberal minded Tesla share holder got buthurts by Musk hypocritical political talks and decided to no support Tesla anymore. Let be honest , Elon Musk is the reason for Tesla stock performance right now due to his antics, I mean his pointless and misguided crusade to buy the unprofitable Twitter already did a number on Tesla stock.

  132. Stop being such a Elonstan, that does not bode well for your credibility. . Transport Evolved did a far better dig at this than you.

  133. Trump also was very anti EV and an anti renewable. The article was correct that his administration did everything they can to sabotage the adaption of EV in the US, even going as far as trying to block California's EV laws. While both political sides in eth US is dirty, it is the Republicans that are actively fighting EV (and greeen energy) adoption to this very day .

  135. One thing that you avoided asking in this video is whether or not his claim is valid. You said that he was lying, yet even from the clips in this video were taken from actually FSD Beta., so I don't see how he is lying here. All your attacks here seem to be about him using a political campaign to attack Tesla but not on whether or not he has point in his allegation.

  138.  @howebrad4601  Lets be fair: those "media" sources she listed deserved all the trashing for the horrible misinformation and literal lies they have been spreading all these years . I mean you seriously not trying to say you are offended that Alex Jones is anything but a POS scum with zero integrity and honour ? All them use the poorly made Hoovie's Garage video to spread disinformation (something even Tyler Hoover complained about in his replay video ) about the impact and capability of BEV.

I mean you seriously not trying to say you are offended that AJ is anything but a POS scum with zero integrity and honour ?

  153.  @Freerider93  Lying about Space X, NASA, Noble laureates and others because of their dislike for them makes them biased. As you said , logic and facts don't care about feeling, if charlatans like Philip Mason is hurt by logic and facts so much that they disregard both in order to paint his targets in the worst light possible, then not only is he biased but lacks integrity.
    1
  154.  @Freerider93  Philip" I like to burn books" Mason hates Musk, NASA Space X, and EV and battery tech so much that he lies constantly about them. Remember when he lies about Space Shuttle vs Falcon and Starship or when he lies about the Tesla semi? Or when he accuses a Nobel prize winner John Bannister Goodenough of being a fraud because Thunderf00t don't understand battery tech? As you said ,logic and facts don't care about feelings and these people are guilty of disregarding them in order tpompain theritargest in worse light.
    1
  155.  @Freerider93  Apparently explaining how these people are biased and lack integrity will get my post yetted . A shame because Philip I like to burn books Mason is a notorious EV and battery hater who constantly lies about them.
    1
  156.  @Freerider93  He talks about EV is videos that are related to them such as hydrogen storage or batteries. Those video show his lack of knowledge in both those fields as well as his hatred for BEV. Even is his anti-Tesla videos she shows his bias such as when he lies about Tesla semi. Those much underline how Thunrdef00t's priorities feelings over logic and facts.
    1
  157.  @Freerider93  Amazing how Philp fans loves to resort to appeal to authority defense when it suits them but slink when it backfired . You know who else is a scientist? The Nobel in Chemistry winner whom Thunderf00T accused of being a scammer because Philip Mason doesn't understand battery technology and the science behind them . What about the scientist as NASA that Philip loves to attack? You think Thunderboy scientist here have more credibility that them too? Oh yes , don't forget when real engineer like Jason Fenske demolishes Tnunderf00t's false claim about EV. Are you going to claim Phill I like to burn books Mason is a more credible engineer than Jason Fenske too? The guy is a book burner, you really think something as extreme as book burning isn't driven by emotion or hatred?
    1
  158.  @Freerider93  My first reply got removed for some reason, a shame because I listed names of actual renowned scientist and engineer that thunderfoot attacked , people who literally have won the Nobel prize . I also listed the scientists and engineers who have debunked him including Jason Fenske. Phil like to cherry pick and even fabricated data and he have been called out on it many time by actual experts in the field .You can't use an appeal to authority defense when the people that Phil I like to burn books Mason attacked and have debunked Philip's claims are more qualified in the field than he is or ever will be. As for emotion or hatred , do you really think action as extreme as book burning isn't driven by emotion or hatred.

I find annoying that every time I tried to post proof of how Phil I like to burn books Mason like to cherry pick data and lies as well as how actual scientist and engineer in the field call him out and debunk hime, my post hot yeeted. I also fin it funny that you claim a book buener isn't driven by hatred or emotion .
    1
  161.  @Freerider93  I take the words or people like John Bannister Goodenough and Jason Fenske over Thunderfoot . The former was target of Phil ands the latter demolishes his lies about EV. Unlike Phil, those are actual scientist and engineer that worked and specialised in the field .
    1
  162. ​ @Freerider93  I don't know which I find more amusing, your refusal to google the name of one of the most renowned scientist on our planet because you are afraid finding out facts or you thinking I am a " Tesla Mark " , whatever that is, just because I pointed how bad Thunderboy is . Nevermind how critical I am of Musk and Tesla in the comments section . As for Jason, unlike Phil, he is actually trained as an engineer and is working in field directly related to cars . You can't even claim he is Tesla stan when he debunked Phil's lies about them considering Jason made multiple videos slamming Tesla and Musk . You don't seem to be her on good faith.

  165.  @The0ldg0at  Faster than any other power plants if not for the bureaucracy. That type of disaster that Onigawa managed to survive unscathed would've completely destroyed any other type of plant be it fossil fuel (coal, natural gas ) or renewable (solar, wind) .Again, if it wasn't for bureaucracy, the plant can literally restart operation merely day after the Tsunami due to the fact that most of its reactor were undamaged.

If you want to disagree with scientific facts, I suggests you sign up with The Flat Earth Society considering they are less harmful than the death cult that is Anti vaccine movements. I don't' vote in American election (or any other foreign government election for that matter ), but if I do my vote won't go to corrupt nutjobs like Trump, Gaetz or Marjorie Taylor Greene (people that even Musk don't like). You need to be stupid, insane or criminal to choose those sucker over AOC or even Pelosi (whom I don't like at all).

  178. Not without losing control of Tesla and Space X. Most of his wealth are locked in those companies . Though Elon Musk himself have stated if anyone can give him a concrete way to end such problems (he was referring to wold hunger) , he would gladly liquidate a his assets to solve them. So far no one have .

  181.  @truecolors6469  Tesla is is the process of making a $25K BEV. Making affordable EV isn't easy. There is a reason whey EV are expensive. It is ignorant to cays he have done nothing for Earth when Tesla alone was responsible for the current change into EV.

  182.  @truecolors6469  At that price range it is affordable to by most people in the US.. Again cars aren't cheap. EV especially aren't cheap due to the battery pack.

  183.  @truecolors6469  I your Toyota Yaris BEV? I think not. Again BEV is expensive. Don't know here you get that 10K profit numbers, though. BTW, if go by your logic , then you must also hate the planet and humans life by driving a dirty Toyota.
    1
  184.  @truecolors6469  There are plenty of second hand BEV that are available for less than 10K , by your logic you can buy them , but you must hate the plants and humanity. If we go by your maths, then if Musk sell a model 3 at 37K, then he loses money. Do you understand now why Tesla have to develop (and spend their profits on the research and developments) way to build a 25K BEV ?
    1
  185.  @truecolors6469  Again by your own logic you must hate humanity and the planet because you are unwilling to sacrifice a little and buy a sub-10K EV, or get a loan an buy some decent BEV.

  189.  @truecolors6469  Defeat? LOL. I hope you are purposely being obtuse (though that would also mean you are arguing in bad faith and have no integrity) because that is would indicate some very serious mental defects going on with you. Do you honestly think I was serious in demanding you goes into bankruptcy(you obviously can't afford a good BEV) just to save the planet and humanist? .my question was to illustrates how ridiculous and unreasonable your expectation of Musk is.

The same goes for Gillette.

  218. The standard home plugs in my country is 240V so we pretty much have Lvl 2 charging here.

  219.  @villageidiot8194  The problem with batteries regards to aircrafts and ship is that it is too heavy to he point where it compromise range and payload capacity. Until and if any battery can match the energy density (per weight) of hydrogen , it will be a better alternative than batteries for such application . Another utility where hydrogen still have an edge is for static large scale, long term storages of energy. Think saving summer time solar energy for the winter months .

  224.  @togowack  Look at my OP, I already stated that they aren't doing as a good jobs as they could. Unlike you, I am not blamings some ridiculous an irrational conspiracy theories for their misgivings. Also you seem to think companies like Theranos and Nikola should get away with their crimes.

  225.  @togowack  And you think the crypto market is any better? With all those ponzi and scam popping out there in the crypto world it is a far more dangerous place tan the stock market. As for Nikola, if you had to ask that question, then you really haven't paid any attention to what's happening..

  226.  @togowack  Not as bad? LOL tell that to the billions that are lost to crypto scam. Are yiu goin to tell me that you don't know of all the lies Nikola used to trick all their investors? Dude, most EV channels (Sam Alexander, Transport Evolved etc ) thoroughly covered them already. You can't be that ignorant.

  227.  @togowack  "Crypto scam? Which one? " Therer are too many to count. Ilya Lichtenstein, Heather Morgan alone laundered 4.5 billion worth of stolen cryptos. "the stock market is guaranteed losses." In what way is it "guaranteed" loss? "their hydrogen trucks are out and driving around." You mean the one that needed to be pushed off a hill? They don't have hydrogen trucks. They don't build their own battery powered trucks.

  228.  @togowack  " you remember the Gamespot scam?" I don't think you are remembering it correctly because there was no such thin as a Gamespot scam. They wee controversy with Robinhood (which is why they re under investigation for it.) but no scam involving Gamespsot itslefs. "Nikola trucks have driven fully on hydrogen across many states, and you know you're misinforming people and only proving my point." No you are just straight up lying. Nikola just delivered a few BEV trucks (not hydrogen) and they were converted Iveco trucks. Again , channel like Sam Alexander and even the one you are on (The Electric Viking) have debunked Nikola and Trevor Milton's lies multiple time. Milton may be spending some time in prison for this .

  229.  @togowack  Did you came from parallel universe or something? None of that happened during the GameStop Saga. What happened was a bunch or Redditt campaign manage to derail some short seller plans, causing the shorts to lose billions . None of that is illegal. What the investigation was about action of few brokerage (including Robinhood) which tried to stop people from buying GME. It was very well documented on what happened? How did you misremember that?

  231.  @togowack  The crypto world is just a rigged and controlled by a few rich and powerful as the real world. For example the $41billion NFT exited are distributed only among less than 400K people, less that 10% of them control 80% of all NFT values. You'll find the same trend for pretty much all crypto. The main appeal of crypto is it's decentralisation and lack of true regulation. The problems with deregulation and decentralisation is that there is no recourse for bad predatory behaviour. A Wild Wild West scenario is not something to strive for.

  232.  @zekew2418  So mature of you, bringing up my dead father who died in 1998, a man who survived two World Wars and being detained as a political prisoner after the Imperial Japanese occupation. Quite amazing that you heard of him.

  234.  @zekew2418  I suggest you looked up all the thing that justifiably made him ass a narcistic , hypocritical ,self serving egomaniacal man to any sane, non biased person (accusing a hero of being a paedophile just because that hurt his feeling, being a total hypocrite about governments "intervention " and politics etc). Again, you are talking to a man who used to be a Musk fanboy, you should look up what he actually said and do instead of blindly worshipping him. And Starlink for Ukraine? The country is in the imminent collapse from invasion and he tried to sue that a promo gimmick for his Starlink systems? Only a person who cheer at his "child sized " submarine" idea foe the Thai Rescue or his proudly blasting that Tesla air filtration systems is good for those choking from the California wildfire would buy this virtual bridge he's selling , that would be very useful for the Ukrainian people. "As to lying my mother would say of you "is not that the pot calling the kettle black". Considering that I have never did the awful thing that Musk have (spreading dangerous misinformation about a deadly pandemic eg) I think I can proudly say that idiom ' apply to me. "Last year he not only donated 50 million $ to St. Jude's children's hospital after the Inspiration flight he helped fund that raised 200 million ". Oh yes, how nice of this 220 billion dollar worth man to donate 50 million to St Jude, make you all giddy when you realised your donation of 100 bucks to charity is more of the percentage pf your net worth than Musk kindness .Kudos to Jared Isaacman and his wife (who donated to St Jude more than twice Musk's donation) to convince Musk to do so after he (Jared) paid Musk tens of million (he said he paid less than 200 million to Space X) for the Inspiration 4 mission and giving Space X free promotion for it . Jared Isaacman is indeed a good man.

  238. German environmentalist at their finest. Remember , tis is the same country that chose highly polluting, dangerous coal power plants over the safer, cleaner nuclear power plants. To make matters worse , those coal plants releases more radioactive waste into the environment in one years of operation than a nuclear power plant within its lifetime.

  239. Considering that the speed limit was removed due to Tesla onw negligence, yes, Tesla should be held liable . Can you imagine if other people can easily impersonate you and make your car company modify your car without your permission.

  240. Yes, because Volkswagen supporting Nazi more than 60 years is equals to Elon Musk allegedly doing it right now. You are getting more ridiculous everyday.

  243. Of course Tesla own. I doubt you would cover this if Tesla lost. Unfortunately you have shown very "reluctant' to cover an bad news involving Tesla, something that hinders you as a trustworthy/reliable source of info on anything EV.
