Excerpt...

“In November, the Associated Press reported on a Consumer Reports survey that found EVs from the 2021 to 2023 model years are significantly less reliable than gasoline-powered vehicles.

A whopping eighty percent less reliable, according to the AP, particularly with battery and charging systems, as well as fit issues with body panels and interiors.”

Companies and their CEOs self identify as lemmings rushing over cliffs these days instead of using research and common sense with their stockholders’ investments.

May we chalk this up to total disregard for demand, and operating under the duress of mandated placement of less desirable products in the hands of the consumers?

Just look at what is happening to gas-fueled appliances, and the mandate that homes be all-electric. Where is the electricity going to be coming from? The electric grid is woefully inadequate in places already, and there is not enough infrastructure being built.

Now do not misunderstand, electricity is a perfectly satisfactory means of providing energy for domestic purposes, but the transformation is being forced and not left to market activity.

Placing the cart before the horse has always been a bad engineering choice, in physical, social, and economic terms.
