  1. Fast charging is not required for MOST ppl most of the time, just plug it in overnight. And new cheap LFP batts last 1 to 3 plus MILLION MILES. ICE is dead. Get used to it.

  2. This vid is BS. I don't fear CO2 but a good modern BEV with LFP batts last 1 to 3 MILLION MILES and cost 5 to $10k for batt pack. Replacing batteries is history with few exceptions, and it sure ain't $47k to do it, that's hilarious, good BEV entire cars cost that.

  3.  @cavediver2579  You're a decade out of date, new LFP batteries will last 1 to 3 million miles for a good brand. Battery change will be limited to rubbish like Chevy but they are going bankrupt anyway just like most of the legacy brands.

  4. It's being done, will be profitable, batts will be endlessly recycled as high grade ore with far less energy than mining and milling. And they are NOT EXPENSIVE anymore, 5 to $10k for a modern LFP batt that lasts 1 to 3 plus MILLION MILES. Think you can last that long?? This vid is hilarious propaganda, no better than the typical Leftist bullshit.

  5. They will be treated as high grade ore and recycled endlessly. They failed to mention that Teslas, BYD and others have switched to LFP batts (for cars, not all vehicles like semis) which last 1 to 3 MILLION MILES This vid is a farce.

  6. Yeah yeah, Tesla insurance is affordable. Fact remains that Teslas pay for themselves on fuel savings alone in short order.

  7.  @cavediver2579  Varies widely depending on where you live, but electricity cost about 1/4 as much as gasoline in general per mile. Hard to compete with 125MPGe with a 30MPG ICE.

  8.  @cavediver2579  I'm simply introducing some reality into this bullshit. I don't even want an EV, I can afford to run my high revving BMW V8 that I love. Most cannot however. EV will be the peasants choice very soon and it will free them from high cost personal transport for the first time in history.

  10.  @cavediver2579  I'm not talking about 10 yr old tech which is clearly where you left off. UPDATE YOURSELF.

  11.  @LemonySnicket-EUC  Who cares? Most charge overnight at home at minimum costs and feel SO free of the tether the rest of us have have to gas stations every week. Many haven't used a supercharger for yrs. Still far cheaper on average at a supercharger than a petrol station OBVIOUSLY...on average, depends where you are and how badly our governments have F'ed up free markets and energy.

  12.  @LemonySnicket-EUC  Pretty hard to compete with 125MPGe.

  13. You really fall for this bullshit? New versions of BWD, Tesla and others have LFP batts that last 1 to 3 plus MILLION MILES. Think YOU can out live that?? And then they will be recycled endlessly. Cobalt and nickel are not even used in better new gen cars, nickel will be used in more demanding applications like semi trucks, plenty of that and copper. You really drank the cool aid.

  14.  @p0p0ng1  Yup, that's good. Now add up all the fuel money to drive that far, multiply that by 75% add that to all your maintenance cost X 50% and you'll get ballpark what you'd save with a good modern EV which may also last another million without major expense.

  15.  @p0p0ng1  False study, probably sponsored by the fossil fuel industry. A new BYD or Tesla (and few other quality brads) with LFP batts will last 1 to 3 plus million miles. Do you expect to put more miles than that on it? Hard to believe I realize but that's how fast things can change w massive competition and recourses invested. Only watched this hilariously misleading vid until they quoted "$47k batt replacement" for some obscure car no one ever heard of. Like this channel but this vid is complete crap.

  16.  @p0p0ng1  Did you mean Elon got money from his estranged parents and his father who he had no contact with since a child?? That's the Communist promoted narrative which is utterly false. He came to Canada with about $5k at 16 and worked his way across the country then entered the US. Never received money from family which didn't have any to speak of, the emerald mine noise is a complete fabrication. Leftist like to pretend NO ONE is really self made so they invent and propagate such stories for anyone wildly successful, similar with Jeff Bezos tho he actually got $100k family investment in early Amazon, hardly made him a billionaire.

  17. No it's not. This vid seriously undermines credibility of the channel, no better than typical Leftist media propaganda.

  18. EVERYTHING has change. This vid is a laughable bit of bullshit. 250 to 500 miles range with 30 minutes to charge an extra 70%, batt packs now below $10k and LFP types can last 3 million miles. Many haven't been to a charge station in yrs as they charge overnight at home, liberating to not have to go to petrol station.
