Well done for your content and commentary. Now some questions, as I recently saw something concerning the sales of electric cars in China, namely that they are being sold in great numbers to „car sharing“ or taxi firms, but in reality they are being parked somewhere and left to rot. It’s a scam to steal from the government. So, how does this affect the numbers in terms of cars actually on the streets? What will be the affect on the carmakers if this scam unravels? Are large numbers of the Car sales in China only to wash money? Keep up the great content, and I will keep watching. Even over an hour.

    A few comments:
    - The limiting factor for any of these companies is battery production. I'm not convinced that GM or Ford have sufficient or adequate plans to secure their supply. They also have some huge cashflow and debt problems. They need to pivot to produce EVs at a level that will satisfy the market but also with enough margin to pay down their debt and keep the lights on. Right now I'm not sure that the can do this
    - The Chinese manufacturers will undoubtably make the largest *number* of EV's but how many of those are destined for export remains to be seen. A bunch of the manufacturers that you've listed there have had attempts at export before and the results haven't been great. The cars were cheap and had abysmally bad crash test performance - in fact the Chery J11 has the honour of the worst performing ANCAP safety rating ever tested with 2 stars and 0 out of 36 for pedestrian ratings. Other cars like the Wulang Mini-EV simply wouldn't pass many local safety requirements.
    - Along with my point above, the volumes of cars produced and sold doesn't really mean that much if the profitability from those cars is low. It could easily be a lot like the smartphone market, where Apple take ~20% of the total market but 80% of the profits. This doesn't mean that the other companies don't survive but will make it much harder for them to innovate than say a Tesla who have a cash printing machine in each of their factories. Once again, this will make it extremely hard for other companies like Renault or Toyota/Mitusbishi etc to attract investment and survive.
    - BYD has a great advantage and could be very successful but will really need to ramp up their software and customer service across the board to get acceptance. You mention in the video that "you'd be crazy to buy the Camry" compared to one of the Chinese cars, but this ignores a major component, local support. It's a much bigger risk to buy a car without a proper service support structure if you live outside of the major metropolitan areas. What would be a routine failure/repair could become a logistical nightmare for the owner. For example, imagine a simple problem like a broken window regulator, but you live in Dubbo and the only repair centre is in Sydney.
    A mate of mine has 22kWh of BYD batteries running his house. There is a combination of software and hardware issues with the system that makes it unstable (shutting down solar production etc) and BYD have been unable to fix it for the last 2 years. Customer service: non existent. He wishes he never bothered and should've bought a powerwall. Software is a major part of any successful EV and will be even more important going forward. This represents a challenge for all of the manufacturers and will play an ever increasing part of the puzzle.

      Not necessarily. I mean, yes, it will be an S curve. But the tail towards 100% doesn’t need to be long - look at Norway, now close to 100%. Also, once a large enough proportion of vehicles are EVs, gas stations start to fail and close, and range anxiety is an ICE issue. After that ICE vehicles become novelty products, like horses, owned by enthusiasts for track days and not serious day to day transport.

Many thanks for the effort you put into your videos, most of the world has no idea of the disruption coming in the next 9-years. As Tesla has discovered it takes years to build a new car factory in Germany. The number of factories dedicated to the production of EV's is going to be the decider. Tesla appear to be much further ahead than some of their competitors. I would guess starting from scratch will be much easier than decommissioning an old ICE factory and the re-equipping that. My guess is long before 2030 we will be able to see who the winners will be by 2030. Once you fall behind the key players in any market you end up lacking the cash to catch-up. By 2026 the winners will be emerging. That is when the consolidations will start in an attempt to catch the market leaders.

    It’s interesting that despite the meteoric growth that Tesla is experiencing they will continually lose market share and all the while becoming the world’s largest vehicle manufacturer. There is massive complacency in the US with the EV market variously described as minuscule or insignificant as it has only 4% share. However, as your example of exponential growth illustrates, by 2026 over half the cars sold in the US will be EVs and Tesla is uniquely placed to take the lions share. The doubly whammy facing legacy car makers is the loss of revenue from ICE vehicles combined with the heavy debt burden they are carrying. Who will lend the huge amounts of capital needed to help failing but ‘leading’ companies make the transition to EV manufacturing

      It's very easy to produce a graph, but reality doesn't necessarily follow. Switching to 50% of all new cars sold to be EVs in the USA by 2026 is a pipe dream - the power network won't support it, for a start. China's already suffering from rolling blackouts and it's probably going to continue to do so for the next year or two. Few other major countries around the world could support more than 20% of their transportation being EVs right now. For 95% of all new cars sold to be EVs by 2030 is completely unrealistic as well. MAYBE we'll see 80% - 90% of new car sales being EVs by 2040, but it's hard to predict that far ahead.

      I think there is an over reliance of incomplete data in making a prediction 9 years out. Tesla could have the manufacturing capacity, but the bottom line is once there are plenty of BEV models on the market, no one is buying a vehicle because of how many that company can make. People buy what they like, and I could point to Kia and Hyundai and say they have an advantage right now because they have some really NICE models on the market in the same price point as Tesla, or a little more, to where I'd rather buy those over Tesla. I have no skin in the game and am looking at this from as an outsider and without bias towards these companies.
      When I buy a BEV, if I do because I might not even buy a car, I'll be in the Philippines and will probably buy an economy car and right now it's only BYD that has something I would actually buy right now. These companies have about 4 years to put out something in the price range I want to pay and I don't think most of these companies can do that, and I don't know how much change there'll be by 2030, and I think if a company can do it other than Chinese makers, it will probably be Toyota or VW, possibly Ford. I'm skeptical that Tesla will unless they change their business model pretty quickly. Right now they're building to maximize profit. I understand this from a growth perspective but if they don't shift down to a vehicle in the low 20 thousands USD and another in the 15 - 20 thousand USD range, that will be wide open for Chinese companies to make a killing and I see Toyota getting into that market for sure, just like they do with ICE.

      "people's taste doesn't track logic".
      That's a pretty wide statement as "logic" is a lost art in today's society and population of those living in it.
      Logic to some has a completely different meaning with this subject.
      Myself. I have quite large street vehicle that is likely one of the largest available with Chevrolet and Ford having the same size, all the largest in size vehicles available in the use of common sense/logic in the application usage.
      Those of us with these 23foot long, 8 foot wide+ Diesel Dual rear wheel, 8 foot beds and crew cab/4 door trucks in the 350 or 3500 models will never think about the price of the EV vehicles out of the lack of desire of needing to know.
      There is no and will be no electric vehicle available to have the ability to perform the task of said vehicles.
      The largest part of the EV possible solution for the application I have to, HAVE TO have my diesel large truck for, the battery possiblity has not been invented as of yet. The range of anything today to tow a 25,000 pound trailer/5th wheel would have a range in the double digit miles, not the 400-500 mile range of our diesel pick up trucks available.
      By 2030 Chevy, Ford and Ram will still be quite strong and profitable corporations with or without selling any small, 4 or 6 cylinder model vehicles. WIl they have to add EV to their line up, yes in my opinion. Otherwise they will loss from the competition of the EV sellers.
      Still, regardless... not everyone will be sucked into the idea they need an EV. Not everyone has been convinced of the need of such a vehicle. I've spent some time in other countries around this world and I can assure you that America is the ONLY country with this "green technology" brainwashed mindset. Singapore, Philipines, Middle east (Baharain), along with the other surrounding areas in the middle east area, Mexico, Africa and the other areas I've conducted business do not care of the "green idea" what so ever. In the Middle east along with Phillipines and Mexico are only aware their vehicles are running by the smoke coming out of the tailpipe. In baharain I saw only a small handful of the vehicles on the road that did not spew smoke from the rear of their vehicles.
      America is one of very few other countries that are concerned about this "Global Warming" that had started during the Ice Age regardless. Japan is another. I can't speak for the east coast continents.

      @@chrischapman276 it's a pretty stong statement that EV's will never be able to compete in the 3500 dually diesel marketplace. Already by next year Tesla will be delivering a cybertruck that will blow away all 3500 series trucks as far as performance while delivering a 500 mile range. It's not unreasonable to think that in 5 years time and definitely by 2030 that 1000 mile range trucks can be offered with the ability to charge that massive battery in similar times it takes to charge a 350 mile range battery today. Most 3500 truck owners aren't putting 1000+ miles a day on their trucks and being able to charge at home or their business negates any range concerns for the vast majority of buyers. Today, even at sky high California energy rates the cost to "fill up" an electric truck vs. a 3500 series truck is 1/3rd of the price of diesel. In other areas with electricity costing 1/3rd of California rates the numbers get even more dismal for ICE vehicles. These cost savings won't be lost on business owners. Electric trucks can also power a jobsite with ease compared to lugging a generator and paying for even more gas. What about space utilization? Electric vehicles can simply pack more stuff in the same length vehicle. It's not unreasonable to think of a 23' electric truck with a 12' bed and seating for 5. Surely a 50% increase in cargo space could be quite useful. What do you think the cost of diesel is going to do in the next 5-8 years? Most likely it's going up and I won't be surprised to see $10/gal by 2030. Never is a pretty strong statement. Not only do I beleive electric will make current 3500 series trucks (including future generations) dumb by 2030, I think they will surpass them in marketshare. Do you really believe in 2040, or 2050 diesel 3500 trucks will be relevant? You did say never.

      You've made a very good and likely truthful statement and please pardon my ignorance in this matter. (That took a lot out of my pride to write! lol)
      Thinking about what you said about the likelyness of distance possibility and charging concept with our new Fulltime RV lifestyle the wife insisted on before we're dead and the idea of driving any longer than 500 miles is ridiculous especially now that I pull a 43 1/2 foot long, 18,000 pound trailer around these highways I've even informed her that it's going to be in the 300 mile range anyway!
      One of a few concerns I have about this concept though is, after just paying $86,000 for the new dually diesel truck I just bought is the price they're going to be set at?.... Let's face it, they aren't going to be in the $80K range to purchase one.
      Then the batteries.....
      I've already heard the horror stories of the price to replace them in the mere small cars and then what are we going to do with all that Lithium from the used and worn out batteries? We can't rebuild them like this Duramax or the Cummins I just got rid of. So where do all these batteries end up at? Can't just throw them in some land fill being the hazardous material. I think that last concern is the same as all us that just don't feel all warm and fuzzy about the new EV concept. Imagine the eventual collection of Lithium batteries at some future point of this earth we are trying to save with all going electric and abolishing any type of internal combustion vehicles. Where are these worthless batteries going to be thrown to eventually? Serious question on this subject.... Hell, I"ve got lithium batteries on my coach after replacing the still good lead cell batteries while I'm upgrading my solar set up to run more than the residential fridge and to include running the AC units on this rig. All this stuff is going to have to be disposed of one way or another. Maybe send them to another planet to let that planet worry about saving itself one day?
      EV's are great for some and just another concern as this government creates another problem while believing it's saving us from mother nature and this "global warming" BS they've fed so many people. After all.... hasn't global warming been going on since the ICE AGE? Another subject another time.

      Even the range of the EQS is now better, charging speed to and not to talk about quality and service network that Tesla is still lacking for a long time. And Tesla still can not repair a car after crash, spare parts are missing like a fender that took 2 months to arrive. I can get a Mercedes S class or Mercedes E 500 fender from 1990 even in 3 days. Same for other parts. Not cheap, but tesla parts are not cheap either but they feel like being cheap produced.

The year 2030 projection has plenty of EV cars and assumes a charging infrastructure, but how much electricity can be produced for the increased demand of all the EV cars? It would be interesting for you to calculate the reduction in petrol consumption versus the increased kwh demand by country. How much CO2 will be eliminated or created by the conversion to EV cars? Can each country support the increased recharging demand. In the US California and Texas suffered brownouts of limited to no available electricity for normal everyday use. What will that mean for the EV plug in cars?

    First, thank you for making this analysis and sharing it with us. I personally believe the picture might look not completely, but at least a little different. The term EV will be substituted by AV: autonomous vehicle. The electric drive will just be a basic necessity. This changes the picture. 1) Most people in metropolitan areas will not own a car any longer (to expensive, e.g. parking, city toll). 2) Companies with autonomous fleets will not buy mostly cheap cars, but rather more convinient and long lasting cars. Car producers might run their own autonomous fleets, their own insurances, etc. 3) The total number of cars will be significantly smaller than today. Most cars today are running only about 1 hour/day. These AV in 2030 will run 24 hours/day only shortly interrupted by fast-charging. Therefore we need only about 1/20 of the number of cars (or maybe 1/10) of today. We will even more telecommute than today. 3) All these Union-controlled companies, e.g. GM, Ford, VW, etc. will have ceased to exist. Car production in 2030 will be fully automatically performed by robots. 4) Cars will last very long. CONCLUSION: Only very few very large car companies will survive.

Where I live in Switzerland we are lucky to have 65% hydro-electric production but it still doesn't meet demand. Despite the enthusiasts, wind has a hard time in Switzerland because of conservationists or other inconveniences and solar generation is hardly being encouraged by the government. So we import electricity from Germany where it is generated with coal. (The German wind turbines in the north & North Sea can't bring the supply to the south where it is needed).

    In Europe I’m convinced that the biggest selling vehicles will be small to medium sized cars. Tesla will need the type 2 or A class or whatever if they are going to dominate the European market. The longer they delay in marketing such a car the more opportunities they give legacy car makers or the Chinese to stake their claim. But , will a small Tesla tarnish the brand. At the moment in the UK if you say “my car is a Tesla” it’s a shorthand for “I would have been driving a luxury car like a Mercedes or BMW a few years ago but I have more sense than that now”. Will there still be that implication that you are something special when there is a small Tesla around? I suggest a small model is needed but it’s positioning will need to be managed carefully if it isn’t to damage sales of the 3.
    Then there is “second album - itis “. How do you keep a minimalistic car up to date? A couple f days ago this channel showed the new Ora large car and the Viking was justifiably impressed with the luxurious interior. As the range, charging times and performance of EVs of a certain size all coalesce at about the same point design is likely to become the most important factor and , maybe, Tesla minimalism won’t be seen as a stand out design in a year or so?
    In the US I can’t imagine that Ford and GM will just sit back and let the Cybertruck become the default vehicle. Tesla might find it harder to become the dominant force in the pick up market than they have in the sedan world.
    I’m not saying that Tesla won’t be the number one ( their control of battery supply and their mass production techniques clearly give them a strong position) but I just don’t think that you can assume it’s a given

      When people understand that to MAKE hydrogen you need huge amount of energy to take out H from the water.
      Were is that energy coming from? Solar, wind, nuclear, coal or oil?
      So you see we must see the whole energy consumption and enveriomental impact.
      Hydrogen is not something you freely pump up from the ground like you do with raw oil that turns into gasoline, distillates such as diesel fuel and heating oil, jet fuel, petrochemical feedstocks, waxes, lubricating oils, and asphalt. 😂
      But unfortunately everyone is just looking at what comes out from the car.. Water.. And don't care if the coal power plant that supply the energy is provide in the energy to extract H from H²O.
      So we just moved the exhaust pipe from the car to the power plant..
      Out of sight out of mind. 😅
      And that hydrogen Engine and usage has been known for a very LONG TIME nothing new at all.
      "The history of vehicles running on hydrogen dates back to 1807 when Swiss inventor Francois Isaac de Rivaz created the first four-wheel vehicle powered by hydrogen and oxygen.

    Good analysis. I know though that with regard to Ford there's a large part of their debt from their financing arm "Ford Credit" -- that is to say that it's money that is coming back to them and doesn't really have much to do with their operations debt. Some other automakers are similarly seeming to have a high debt-load, but it's deceptive because of their internal financing groups debt -- which is generally only looked at as a lump sum rather than breaking it out.
    I'm not sure how many automakers have a similarly deceptive debt picture.

      EVs are coming with a vengeance, much faster than most people predicted only a few years ago, but legacy automakers are beginning to adapt. Only a few months ago, Viking was predicting Ford's bankruptcy. A few years ago, he might have said the same about VW. I doubt that Tesla has tied up the battery supply as thoroughly as Viking imagines. If most cars sold in 2030 will be EVs, the necessary battery production will be orders of magnitude greater than it is now. No one is contracting with Tesla for all of this future battery production now, and even if they did, the contracts are only as good as Tesla's future sales.
      I have no idea what Rivian will sell in 2030, but "they're all luxury vehicles" is something you could have said about Tesla only a few years ago. I also have no idea what startups that I've never heard of will sell in 2030.

    Although the whole idea behind this video is nice, the contained information and also the conclusion is simply up to the creators mind. We all can agree that Tesla will play an important role in the 2030 BEV market, but putting them into first place with twice the amount of its successor is nonsense. This would mean that Tesla is competing on every car market, by country and by segment.
    The problem with Tesla is, that it is currently hyped a little too much so that people are buying Teslas just to sell them with a profit because of the limited supply. It's pretty similar to the PS5 scalpers. This will change with Giga Texas and Giga Berlin ramping up production. On the mid-term it will hurt the used Tesla market as well as the margin on new Teslas. Although Tesla can afford this easily, it will have an impact on the demand and also growth rate.
    And let's be honest, future growth will be defined by affordable cars and Teslas are far away from being affordable for the masses. Current growth is based on early adoption from EV enthusiasts who like the idea of electric performance cars, especially when they can get incentives from the government. Incentives won't be there forever, competitors are getting stronger in every segment and the average mass market user does not need a car with 0-62 mph in 4 seconds.
    In my opinion the actual advantages from Tesla are:
    - Supercharger network
    - Free advertising by all those Tesla fanboys
    - No dealership network (but also no service network in the other hand)
    - Ultra low time to market (because they simply ship new tech without proper testing and fanboys still accept that)
    There is still a chance Tesla won't be on the list of automakers in 2030. When they go for the 4680 cells with structural batteries and there is a major issue within the next 5 years, this could result in a mass recall of several hundred thousands or even millions of vehicles.

    Although this review is well organised it’s from a “Asian Pacific American” POV.
    The EV market is growing exponentially in Europe (in some countries EV sales is more than 30% of all new cars sales - booming petrol prices is helping).
    And now for a history lesson: Chinese manufacturers will have to produce their products in Europe (its not a maybe, it’s a certain) to avoid tariffs (the same they apply today to any European car export). They will have to offer a much better product for the price that they eventually end up selling in Europe).
    Renault will not disappear and the same for FIAT (now under the Stelantis group along with Peugeot although most of brands will die - I would say Peugeot, Citroen, FIAT, Chrysler will be keept, the other will disappear ).
    But for me the biggest stupidity of this video (based only on numbers and statistics) is not knowing that Mercedes is much more than a luxury brand (that it will survive just fine) and completely forgetting their large heavy duty trucks business.
    Mercedes and BMW already have great EV products to sell right now so I find strange that the author not even acknowledge that).
    The market is changing on a rapid pace, a lot of brands will die (or be discontinued), the market will consolidate around even bigger groups (more than it is today). The key factor will be the service and not only the car (drivetrain, batteries, software). And big tech companies will get in the game because of “software” essencial for a modern car.

The new Ford F150 Lightning coming out in the spring will have batteries from jointly owned (with SK) battery plants in Kentucky and Tennessee. One of the plants in Tennessee is located on a SIX square mile property. Ford is investing over 11 billion in the three plants in Kentucky and Tennessee. Longer term, Ford and BMW are major investors in the next battery technology, solid state batteries via a Colorado company (Solid Power). Ford predicts that they will be manufacturing 600,000 battery electric vehicles not in 2030 but in 2023. Ford may be behind Tesla but they are rapidly catching up plus they have manufacturing capabilities not easily duplicated by other startups because of the high cost of entry.

      When are those US factories due to be ready? 2025?
      They'd be "catching up" if Tesla wasn't moving faster.
      "600,000 in 2023" (ish?)
      So as many as Tesla produced in Q1-3 2021....... With only the "small" factories?
      Even a bearish case puts them at 3 million+ in 2023 (5x Ford)
      And or course, "they're not just a car company"
      Reviews of the Big Mach?
      "Plumbing" (major redesign under way?)

      @@tomkomadina7390 I did read all that but I don't think you should all these CEOs at their word. Let's look at it practically. The largest battery companies CATL and BYD don't even make that many batteries. Tesla buys batteries from pretty CATL, BYD, LG, and they even manufacture some themselves yet barely have enough batteries. Ford plans to make 600K cars within 2 years seems like a lot of fluff to me. They only have the current capacity to make 80K Mach-Es a year in 2025. I doubt they will be able to make 100K F150 lightnings in their first year of production. All these investments are things that wont bear fruit till 2025. Ford sells over 20million ICE cars a year. Their debt is more than 10x their cash. Even if Ford was to somehow achieve 600K a year and 4 million by 2030, the revenue will be nowhere near enough for it to bag off it's debts. EU and China will be fully electric by then so pretty much no ICE sales. Don't even get me started on their negative margins on each EV they sell. They are bleeding money each time they sell an EV. They don't have a gigapress so their margin will pretty much be less than what they are for ICE cars since EVs are more work.
      The solid state batteries that you talk of are still being tested, not planned for production till 2025, and will have a capacity similar to current battery tech. By 2025, all battery manufacturers estimate to have better batteries with longer range. Solid state batteries also degrade faster and need to be replaced regularly. Most people aren't going to want to pay to replace their batteries every year or two just so they can get faster charging. Most current EV owners just charge in their garages. From my point of view, most of what Ford said could come true, but the timeline and practicality doesn't seem reasonable for me. I would love for them to prove me wrong but I don't see any way for them to avoid a financial crisis. They simply don't have the money available to do the insane amount of scaling that will need to be done in order for them to even come close to their ICE revenue or pay off their interest on debt

    What are you talking about with saying that Hyundai/Kia haven't committed to EVs? Ioniq 5, Ioniq 3, EV4, EV6, EV7, EV9. From the launch of the EGMP platform a year or so ago, to the vehicles built on that platform that are starting to come available now, to their commitment of 7 new EV models on the market by 2027 and they're working on a partnership to launch their own EV charging network. From where I'm sitting, they seem far more committed to EVs than the likes of Ford and GM. I think you may be underestimating them.

    I'm not even so sure Tesla will still be worth mentioning in 2030, at their current trajectory. They are losing ground in regards to innovation and model coverage by the day, and even their marketing and cult won't keep them afloat forever. Unless they vastly expand their model range (which they currently seem to have no plan to) and configurability, they will have a hard time keeping up with the other big brands. They only now have the advantage that the others still carry the burden of their ICE vehicles. Once the market has pivoted around to all-electric, they will have a hard time competing with their cookie-cutter repertoire.
    China is a big threat, and I do see BYD or SAIC at the top in 2030, assuming they get their current export problems resolved by then. Chinese cars currently have a huge problem with distribution outside of China, due to lack of dealerships and service centers, lack of security especially in the low-cost ranges, and political barriers. If they can overcome these issues, the western manufacturers will have a real problem. Also, you are here assuming that the general market situation will not change. China and the CCP are extremely protective of their economy.. expect that once their own industry will have achieved significant enough market share, other companies like Tesla will have a hard time getting approval for new factories in China, and might even be driven out and/or suppressed via tariffs.
    VW and GM are on a good track, but their conservative part of management are providing internal hurdles to progress. Whether they will get these ironed out, or whether it will break their legs in the long run, only the future can tell.

      @@MarkXHolland Thanks for the insightful criticism. I fully expected some hate, considering I dared to post an anti-Tesla opinion on an EV channel, but it would be helpful if you actually countered any of my claims specifically instead of throwing a generic "you suck!" into the room. That's not how grown-ups discuss.
      With Tesla, there is a huge divergence between their marketing and where they would like to be, vs. where they actually are, and that's something that will bite them in the future. Once the EV market has grown beyond the "cult" levels, people will start demanding to get what they pay for, and Tesla does not deliver that right now.

Information today comes from social media and look at the train wrecks it has created. As it pertains to BEV’s, electricity production is not Carbon free (except Norway) and until it is it is social media driving the wrong behaviour to stop Global Warming. Not enough Engineers in Charge is what won’t age well.

    Nice statistics for the present situation, but that is all about it..There are too many unknown variables in the equation - emergence and adoption of new technologies, politics, corporate mergers, business decisions that will take place in the next 9 years ( and neither you, nor anyone else knows them), etc.
    The only think we know is that the EV market is going to grow rapidly and the ICE will shrink. But nothing more.
