Why the EV decline? Simple answer. Price. When prices come down the adoption rate will skyrocket.
There is no struggle, we just don’t want them.
Tesla 3 = 4000lb curb weight
Nissan Versa = 2600 curb weight
Nissan Versa has a much lower curb weight and a higher payload.
EVs don’t make sense because the they aren’t more efficient. They are in fact doing more work than a conventional car. W=F*D
The documentary was well done. I’d watch a longer, part two.
Yea because nobody wants EV
