People who've bought EVs and love them can't understand why more drivers don't join them; EVs are wonderful; they'd never go back to clunky old ICE cars... There's an air of 'Let them eat cake' in the EV community. "Come on everybody - spend some of that huge pile of cash you've been sitting on! You can't take it with you! Spend it now!" It's not a very realistic or helpful attitude. EVs are luxury items for (relatively) rich people. Yes, I used the 'r' word, there. Rich. You can protest all you like about your poverty, you merry Musk-rateers, but the chances are that if you drive a Tesla, you'll be volunteering to help in the local soup kitchen, not waiting outside it in the breadline to be served. Millions of motorists across the world can just about afford to keep a £500 [five-hundred] third-hand, beaten-up, rusty old ICE car on the road if they do their own servicing and limit themselves to essential journeys to save on fuel costs; but EVs are needlessly expensive. Needless? Yep. They're crammed with tech and gadgets, heaped with fancy automatic gizmos, endowed with stupid, pointless, wasteful, extravagant performance... They're built and specced to soothe the egos of those petrolheads who didn't want to feel they were losing out by going electric. So today's EVs are all turned up to 11. And expensive. Oh, my, they're expensive. They're the motoring equivalent of those nifty little business jets that millionaires like to play with. People are still using nasty old ICE cars because there's no EV equivalent. If you could buy a crummy EV - an ancient Mark 3 Musk-mobile, for instance - for under £1,000 [one-thousand], I'm sure people would rush to go electric. It's a bit like wondering why everybody doesn't spend £1,300 on the latest Apple smartphone. Well, duh - it's because it's a waste of money if you don't suffer from 'status issues', couldn't care less about brand snobbery and poor-shaming, and can buy a perfectly adequate no-name phone for under £100. We need new EVs - and I mean cars, not bikes, trikes or golf carts - that cost no more than £5,000. China has some interesting ideas about cheap EVs, but they're not for export. If EVs were wristwatches, I'd say we need fewer Rolex and more Timex options. The vehicles in this video (yes, even the Aptera) just ain't hitting the target.
Pretty much this. Currently cheapest EV's on sale where i live are 3500€ 1989 nissan sunny conversion, 4600€ 2012 broken think city then the price goes up with 2013 Renault Kangoo Express for 7500€. Even the old Nissan is already out of the budget of most people and has been on sale for years now nobody wants to buy so old car for such price and also considering its self made conversion so there could be many issues and also the cars age starts to bring problems on getting parts that need replacing. Personally i would love to have EV for my daily drive but the prices are insane for what i would get hell even the ami costs here something like 12-15 000 € and i would need something more like a van and those things are so expensive that it would literally take decade(s) to save money for one.
I built my own nice very looking Ev motorcycle that goes 50mph with a range of 60 miles range for less than 4 grand. You don’t have to be nowhere near rich to have a ev.
EV drivers choose to ignore the real damage done to the environment by buying these expensive pieces of garbage & lets also ignore the human suffering of the African children who are digging up lithium for your batteries,
I just got a bunch of bikes and I think I'm going to make some model T style bike cars. Not sure on battery type, was actually thinking going wood powered. It's the great lakes, not gonna mind riding with a wood fire much in winter.
@@Electric-Rideables I thought so too, not anywhere I go that doesn't have something to burn. I am thinking of costume work vehicles too, mainly for mail and papers, but only because I'm around that. Less of a point to think of much else about more than that area right now. There's money in it.
The Aptera doesn’t really classify as a ‘mini’ EV. It’s wider than almost any car on the road today, and longer than quite a few. 177” long, 88” wide, 25 cubic feet of storage. Definitely the most capable/versatile of any vehicles on this list.
These EV's are great and all. But the biggest problem that all these countries need to solve is traffic congestion. A infrastructure needs to be built to accommodate all types of transportation much like how the Dutch are doing. A separate lane for cars, bicycle etc Another thing needed is road infrastructure that can charge vehicles on the go. That way the range issue of EV's will be better.
Really liking that Citroën My Ami buggy but with only 6KW of power and 40 something mile range, eh, I don't know. My electric stand up scooter makes 6KW but has a 60 mile range. Of course it's not moving as much drag and weight around, so...
What about crash safety regulations? Are there really no crash tests for such micro-machines? And how are they certified for production and operation in this aspect? China, okay, but how is such a car-coffin allowed in security-obsessed Europe? After all, God forbid, for example, if such a truck hits a car, it will fly away somersaulting or on its side! This is not to mention a simple fairly strong blow from the front or side... Can someone enlighten me on this issue?
There are some made for the US, but they usually follow electric quadricycle laws and regulations, meaning they are only legal on roads with posted speed limits of 35mph or lower.
Not really sure about those cars. They seem to be made only for singles. A family isn't the target apparently. Though the bigger EVs are most probably out of a families budget. Let's see what time brings. And every product has its neech. Thanks for sharing. Weekend Stuff
Aptera have larger vehicles 'on the drawing board' (check out their site) and if as much thought goes into them as has gone into their 2-seater they will be worth waiting for. And by then (ie a couple of years down the track) battery technology will have moved on from lithium-ion ...
I wanted to buy a Renault twizzy years ago until I found out it’s cheaper to have a normal car because of the monthly battery rental charge cost. 👎🏽 I will stick with my Audi for now.
I drive a Smart EV every day. I want more options here in the US. To the politicians, if you're worried about safety then you're not living. My safety is none of your business.
If a business sells something that is not Safe they are opening themselves wide-open to Class-Action legal problems down the road. The 'Light vehicle/Quadricycle' classification is a way round this in Europe (ie lower speed/lower speed environment/lighter vehicle) but I am not sure how this would work somewhere as litigious as the US.
Toyota wont approved this,yes they had EV model,but they still think HYDROGEN is the answer of future car,LESS comsumption,enviroment friendly,less refuel time,same power or more than most petrol car,and they had SOUND(exhaust) same like petrol car
The problem is that people will drive these on all streets and roads where, due to their light construction, they stand a good chance of being demolished by regular sized cars. That and many are the brainchild of small startups who lack the financial resources and production capabilities to bring them to market. How will they be serviced especially if the company suddenly folds?
all these solutions to problems wouldn't be if some countries would have a public transport worth name it... why should i commute with a car to work when by bus or e bike it's the same time?

@@Electric-Rideables I understand that however that doesn't matter if another vehicle hits these electric cars on the road. If a minivan were to t-bone one of these electric vehicles the people inside would be in big trouble.
Most modern vehicles (including ICE types) 'crumple' in a serious impact, with this material change absorbing energy and protecting the occupants in their 'cell'. This is certainly the design brief for the Aptera (which has not had such tests yet as the final production version is being finalised).
EVs have existed as long as gas powered cars (1890s-ish) and they still make up less than 1% of the vehicles on the road. Not sure that's "too soon". In all honesty, both will share the roads for the next century or longer. It just may be 5% electric. 95% gas. Or, 20% electric. 80% gas.
We have gone way too slow moving off ICE, in all likelihood we missed our window already. Having lived both with ICE and EVs it is incomprehensible to me why most people are still choosing ICE.
Have to agree, I wouldn’t feel very safe driving down a busy A road in one of these, I’ll keep my Range Rover for a while & leave the EV’s to the skinny jeans wearing latte drinkers. 😜
Why do these car makers think that the mini EV has to look like a small shoe box......the Aptera looks like a mini Batmobile.....maybe it's a Robinmobile...........I'm outta here.
no one off these 'car's' where usable for two persons plus 2 shoping-bag's. all off these are only for 'hipstering use' for strand's an co, but not for normal use over the day. in the world of SUV's we have in time, i will not drive in those little vehikel's in the normal trafic on the streets, it's to dangerous.
Regarding your concerns about their ability to handle uphill drives, especially for those living in hilly areas, it might be reassuring to know that EVs are actually quite capable in this aspect. Thanks to the way electric motors work, they can provide maximum torque from a standstill, which is a big advantage when it comes to tackling steep inclines.
Rising price of fossils is just too push electrics, that polute much more in their construction negating their so called environmental cleanness. Lithiun is much more limited than fossils. 500000 pounds of raw materials for a 1000 pound battery... To break even, a renault zoe needs to do 227000kms, an audi etron 440000km. And then you need a new battery 🤣 nice money scheme. The future is elsewhere...
@@Electric-Rideables Yeeeeeeaaaahhhhh... it's too bad... better range means chargin' less ... less range worries...but who knows, they may improve over time....
Electric cars are a curse inflicted on the buyers. The lack of recharging stations makes the owners a prisoner to their vehicles. Of course, if you want to spend all day recharging your car, go for it!
Which lack of charging points? They’re all over the place in NZ. EV drivers park where they are, so businesses put them in to attract people who can afford EVs. Local councils put them in too, in partnership with power generators and retailers. Many can fast-charge too, so people don’t have to charge when they get home. “Charging all day” is a good wheeze 😆
You charge theses at home like your smartphone. You only need rapid charging if you're on a road trip. Other than that you leave the house with a full charge every day.
@@Electric-Rideables not really the point though, right? You don’t charge it all day, whether you use free chargers around the place, as we do here in NZ, or charge it at home. The winery near my home has three free chargers that do fast or slow charge. At wine o’clock at least one of them is always in use. If you’re meeting your mate for a drink why wouldn’t you accept a free top-up? It’s the same in town. You can go into a shopping precinct, get a bunch of stuff done, and come back to a car with more range than when you arrived. It’s a customer magnet, now plug-ins are more common.
All These EV's are Fecking useless underpowered and low miles for traveling and too long to Charge a Motorcycle or Motor Scooter is more Practical and Economically Superior.
electric vehicles seems cool until you think about were will all that expired battery will go if it become as numerous as fossil fuel vehicles today..... just imagine like a really big pile of expired cellpone batteries.😖😖.... i will be really innovatively cool if it runs on shredded sofdrink bottles and emits water vapor ... lol!
Why are they making cars so ugly. I know nothing about the mechanics of a car, but I do like them to look attractive, but they are now getting uglier and uglier by the minute and too small, I like small cars, being only 4’ 11” tall it’s easier for me to see over the dashboard, but do I really have to for go style in order to see, and I have a granddaughter who lives with us so we have to have room for a passenger, Mini is the smallest I would go, but please,,please stop making them so ugly. The worst ones are the electric cars, they are disgusting to look at, I don’t really want one now, but the Government in the UK have told us that from 2030 we will not be able to buy a new petrol car, so we’re stuck with what the car manufacturers are chucking out, ugly, horrible cars.
I bought an EV. It sucked. Long charge times. Charging problems. Super expensive parts. Limited distance. Major pain in the ass. So I sold it. That in itself was almost impossible. The resale value is worthless. I could go on, but won't. I'll just say this, I'll never own another EV.

Gas and diesel are never going away.
You are absolutely correct. The goal is co-existence. Right now 99% of vehicles are gas/diesel. Maybe 10 years from now it'll be an 80/20 split.
My question is how do those tiny vehicles have sufficient collapse space in the course of collision to protect the driver and passengers?
Realistically they are only of use on local roads which limit speed and hence collision dangers ,say 28 mph maximum

Local councils put them in too, in partnership with power generators and retailers. Many can fast-charge too, so people don’t have to charge when they get home. “Charging all day” is a good wheeze 😆
You charge theses at home like your smartphone. You only need rapid charging if you're on a road trip. Other than that you leave the house with a full charge every day.
@@Electric-Rideables not really the point though, right? You don’t charge it all day, whether you use free chargers around the place, as we do here in NZ, or charge it at home. The winery near my home has three free chargers that do fast or slow charge. At wine o’clock at least one of them is always in use. If you’re meeting your mate for a drink why wouldn’t you accept a free top-up? It’s the same in town. You can go into a shopping precinct, get a bunch of stuff done, and come back to a car with more range than when you arrived. It’s a customer magnet, now plug-ins are more common.

All These EV's are Fecking useless underpowered and low miles for traveling and too long to Charge a Motorcycle or Motor Scooter is more Practical and Economically Superior.
Thanks for the feedback!
electric vehicles seems cool until you think about were will all that expired battery will go if it become as numerous as fossil fuel vehicles today..... just imagine like a really big pile of expired cellpone batteries.😖😖.... i will be really innovatively cool if it runs on shredded sofdrink bottles and emits water vapor ... lol!
Haha. nice
Why are they making cars so ugly. I know nothing about the mechanics of a car, but I do like them to look attractive, but they are now getting uglier and uglier by the minute and too small, I like small cars, being only 4’ 11” tall it’s easier for me to see over the dashboard, but do I really have to for go style in order to see, and I have a granddaughter who lives with us so we have to have room for a passenger, Mini is the smallest I would go, but please,,please stop making them so ugly. The worst ones are the electric cars, they are disgusting to look at, I don’t really want one now, but the Government in the UK have told us that from 2030 we will not be able to buy a new petrol car, so we’re stuck with what the car manufacturers are chucking out, ugly, horrible cars.
Good points. Hopefully, they won't all be ugly EVs by then...
I predict a robust used car market like Cuba has, and a bright future for mechanics like me
None from china
none at all?

I bought an EV.
It sucked. Long charge times. Charging problems. Super expensive parts. Limited distance. Major pain in the ass.
So I sold it.
That in itself was almost impossible.
The resale value is worthless.
I could go on, but won't.
I'll just say this,
I'll never own another EV.
Dang. I'm curious to know which EV it was that has a worthless resale value? Or, are you lying?
