We are a very large car and truck dealer in California. We are having a very hard time selling All EVs. In fact we started not excepting used EVs as trades, almost impossible to sell
if you think this is bad , just wait until these cars become trade ins .
The Big 3 doesn't understand the 3 P's Price, Price & Price. Why they didn't sell low trim models is stupid on their part.
Tesla Turds 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
In hindustani south. Tesla, hyundai, kia, merc, audi, vinfast, byd, volvo tata, mahindra, suzuki etc etc all evs will sell better, crap gm was kicked out .
Amidst all the anti-EV hysteria, I continue to lovingly own my 2019 Chevrolet Bolt EV Premier. Reliable, practically maintenance-free, ridiculously cheap to operate, sell like hot cakes - local GM dealers have ZERO Bolt EV/EUVs on their lots.
Chevy Bolt and Audi Q4 are the exceptions - dealers can’t keep them on their lots
@@angy97 Yes, but EV haters never mention it. They just howl and scream and spray spit as if they are being paid to do it. Well, maybe they are.
I am very much in the market for an EV, a new Tesla Model Y Performance or a gently used Model S. At the moment I would not consider any other brand!
Show Musk on vid intro when cuts in Tesla sales are 10% but others like Stellantis are wiped out.
I am happy with my EV. Not happy with the slow roll out of the charging network. The charging network is the issue.

*A few years ago did consider buying an EV in the UK as were stated to be the best thing since sliced bread however now so glad I opted instead to get a Mercedes late 2019 from a local main dealer - (W247) B200 CDi AMG 8 Speed [Diesel] with 81 miles on the clock (ex Demo) with all the latest tricks etc - and got a massive discount of nearly 10k from list price. This has absolutely amazed me, so so quiet, incredible range and over 35 mile journey (A6/A46) to Newark in Eco Mode [Freewheels when lifting throttle] did 93.2 mpg {UK Gallon = 4.54 Litres} and took a screenshot from Mercedes Me App to prove it - hit traffic near end so dropped a bit. This car will no doubt still be running in 20 years time and still giving good sensible practical use. I don't make many journeys outside most EV's Range, but during summertime take generally a trip every week of between 150-300 miles Cotswolds, Wales or Cromer - I start to Range Anxiety when see only have 60 Miles left in tank and warning light comes on ! - If I wished to sell it (which I don't) would expect to get around £22½k not much less than I paid for it ! - Say no more*
You cannot trust the numbers in the display, especially the mpg is more or less a random number
The only way to measure it is to fill the tank, drive a long distance back and forth and then fill the car at the same pump, then use the google maps to measure the distance, the formula is distance from google divided by gallons from the pump, it is most likely a totally different number.
Oh, don't expect your Mercedes to keep up for 20 years, they have lowered the quality significantly since they found out that most owners only keep them for a couple of years.

You’ve pointed out a critical reason EVs are doomed. They have a very limited shelf life with regard to their tech. A 10 year old EV is like a 10year old cell phone. Nobody wants one.
No trade in value
The I pace is not made in the UK.
I pace also probably marks the death of Jaguar.
What about the Lucid Air? $175,000 and the wheels tend to fall off.
So I googled this and there was 1 instance of a wheel Cover falling off a Lucid. But no actual wheels (that was Toyota). And only 1 versions of the Lucid is $175,000
Two EVs are the opposite - Chevy Bolt and Audi Q4
You've just supplied the nine best reasons for the EV slowdown... crappy offerings from 'The Big Boys'. When these 'experts' return from the wilderness, the global EV market will belong to others.
there is no slowdown
every market EVS INCREASED IN NUMBERS SOLD most critical posters are mixing up % inreases with actual numbers
@@flodjod Right you are. I should have used quotes to highlight media's smug frenzy.
Electric motors are undoubtedly the future as eating synthetic food may one day be the norm.
But not today. We are not ready yet and the infrastructure nor technology is ready.
When ICE are finally phased out I hope gravity and electromagnetism will power the EVs.
For now and hopefully the next 20 years, I hope fossil fuels powers my vehicles. EVs pollute too; they just do it at the factories.
Properly maintained ICE vehicles usually don’t self combust. Batteries, well maintained or not can’t be totally trusted.
All cars have it the Brakes
If you think sales are bad now, wait until the Chinese fire traps go on sale.
Where Chinese are are being sold- the EU, they are doing well.
Chinese EVs are total junk. They begin falling apart right off the lot. Avoid buying any Chinese made vehicles.
@@psdaengr911 With the exception of that pesky spontaneous combustion feature, that is.
@@MarlinWilliams-ts5ul You’re 100% correct.
In Bremerhafen, Germany, we have 5 digits of those that got unloaded from the ships to the ports parking lots. And are still rotting there, never even getting to a dealership...
the merc is overpriced crap, caddy is a mary abortion, leaf forgot to improve its 2nd generation, f15o is just ford crap, genisis overpriced ugly, tycan looks like an ancient design specs are crap , mach e just total ford crap, jag was a dreamers nightmare,
EV demand, including Tesla, has leveled off for many reasons and its not media fault. The EV itself is to blame. Too expensive, unreliable, inconvenient, finicky, dangerous, and after years of ownership you end up with basically a virtually worthless electronic device destined for the shredder.
Rather than being taken in hook, line and sinker by the oil-lobby propaganda, just try checking those facts. Fires? (Gas cars are 50 times more likely to catch fire than EVs. (Diesels are even worse.) Value? Like for like, EVs are no more pricey currently, and as gas cars become more expensive, the price of EVs is dropping every year. Range: If 200 miles seems to be more than enough for 99% of people, but if you’re the kind that regularly drives 400 miles without a coffee or going to the loo, then you deserve a medal. Car Life? There are many thousands of EVs running happily after 100,000 miles or more and keeping their value on the market. EVs have so many advantages - cost saving, cleanliness, no cancer-gases and particles, crash stability, (they don’t turn over), ease of charging (no gas station headaches), future-proof, etc etc
The proof of the pudding is that millions of EV owners are delighted with their experience and few would ever go back to petrol, if any.
Tesla quarterly sales have slowed from last quarter due to supply chain delays, a terrorist attack in Berlin, and plant shutdowns for model refreshes. Year over year total BEV sales have not decreased.
Once you said it wasn’t the media, knew you would push all the EV FUD from the media.
Never found charging up at home inconvenient or finicky. Also, not dangerous. ICE cars have a way higher rate of burning up. Also, prices are already coming down and that will continue.
Prices coming down proves my point, that demand is decreasing. Law of supply and demand. They can’t get prices low enough such that most people will ever own one given current labor and mining cost. Already mining in China performed by slaves means costs can’t be cut further. Lot of brainwashing and hype going on, like a cult. Time will prove EVs are a huge failure.
Dealers dont want used EVs. They cant unload them either
in Europe the short range isn’t an issue. If people are using it as a town commuter the problem comes when people decide to go on a long road trip.
I don't live in Europe and I want a car that I can jump into and go anytime to anyplace. Isn't that why cars personify freedom?
In other words why does no one want to buy garbage. And how do you resell how much to replace the battery.
You have pointe out all the problems those cars/truck have or the manufacture doing nothing to keep competitive. Add to that, an unreliable charger network in the US, you have the ingredients to fail.
I recently saw a video of two EVs that collided with each other on a hiway up in Canada, and WOW! It looked like an end of the world explosion! The firemen could not or would not go near the mess. It went on and on and on, never seeming to subside. EV for me? No way!!! EVER!!!
bs ice are 10x more likelly to explode stop swallowing big oils bs
Why no Dell? Becouse electric 100% is not the future…!!!!!
The truth is, since WWII, the physical form-factor and energy density of batteries of today, have only been reduced to 1/5 of there original size (there are only so many molecules of materials available for anodes and cathodes). On the other hand, the smallest single function vacuum tube's glass envelope (the peanut tube) in 1945, will hold more than thirty billion transistors, batteries will never catch up!
Since WWII the average American human body has increased in size and declined in efficiency, occupying 1.10x the volume and consuming 2.1 x the energy, while college entrance exam score have steadily declined.
There IS NO "overall market slowdown" . You are taking the sales of the worst selling cars and saying that because they aren't selling the market is slowing down. That is only true of these cars which proved to be disappointing to early adopters - who told their friends they wouldn't buy them again.
Total market unit sales of BEV are increasing FASTER year over year. There are 30+ E V models. The 9 in the video are losers because of their performance not being adequate, quality issues, and prices that are unaffordable or not competitive with other BEVs. Tesla, Hyundia and BYD are killing them.
He has to make a video 😂
The NISSAN LEAF ZE1 is the best EV in the world
only fools don't understand why NISSAN is the best EV brand
For an EV you have a frame, 4 wheels, 2 to 4 servo motors and a battery. Hence the price is double a gas car. Ah, economics Harvard style.
In truth, mes amis, ALL EV'S, vehicles of a Fool's Paradise, are but a fanciful dream...a Wet Dream.
People have seen through the hype and now see the reality. EV's will die for the same reasons as in the 1900's, range, battery and liquid fuels.
Bad EVs will die for the same reasons that bad cars always have.
keep up dreamer
Ev's are on a dead end road, in a few years we won't see any of them on the roads.
I'll never buy one because every charge would put money in Musks pocket thanks to his being granted a legal monopoly on chargers. Beside that, they won't save the environment. You buy an ev and sell your old car, which means the old car is still on the road, net decrease in pollution is 0%. Batteries are a junk yard ecological disaster, and the nearest charger is never going to be close to you, because it doesn't pay Musk to put a dozen on every corner like gas stations. 15 minute charge means if you're the 4th in line you have at least an hour wait to charge up.
They can't sell 'em because they're rubbish - like all EVs.
Yep!!!
People do not want EVs; they want Teslas, cars designed by rocket scientists, built in America, and led by a true visionary.
* Tesla Full Self-Driving (FSD) users have passed a significant milestone. Tesla drivers have driven over 1 billion miles on FSD. That’s a cumulative number of miles that exceeds the distance between the Earth and Saturn.
* Tesla's Model Y just aced its safety exams, earning the highest possible score from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
* Model Y received the highest Overall Score among any vehicle tested under Euro NCAP’s newest, most stringent test protocol. This was based on an evaluation of Model Y’s ability to protect adults, children and vulnerable road users like cyclists and pedestrians, as well as its safety assistance features.
* The Tesla Model Y has broken through another price barrier, with the popular EV now cheaper than the average price paid for a new car or truck in the USA, shattering the concept that electric vehicles are too expensive for mainstream adoption.
There are some that want EVs but not all. Maybe only %15 of population..it's a niche market. 2nd, government don't have a clue that not all will buy. They think if you build they will come. 3rd, too expensive for a market that's not mature or established. 4th, in some cases, it damages the environment more..i.e mining for cobalt and litium 5th, range gets compromised when it has heavy load or extreme weather
@@RacerX1971 It's hard to say what percentage want any product whose manufactured supply is less than current demand. Early production of any new product carries a higher price. The most popular model passenger car worldwide is a luxury BEV. In the EU BEV registrations are more than 10% of all new registrations. In China, the largest passenger car market, it's much higher. The amount of the precious metals mined for BEV is less the 0.03% of the amount of iron ore mined, less than 1% of oil pumped or coal mined - and the battery materials are recyclable. ICE car range drops by 30% in cold weather.
Don't let facts affect your opinions - ignorance is entertaining.
@@psdaengr911 , you have that backwards...EVs range drop 30% or more when it's very cold. Ice cars like cold..hence cold air intake..do your homework before you preech..plus they also drop when it's hot. And some charging station have issues when cold..for reference look at what happened back east recently..🤪🤪🤪
@@RacerX1971 "There are some that want EVs but not all. " - Absolutely. In the city and suburbs, an EV makes sense. Out in the country you need the longer range of an ICE.
A billion miles on FSD I don't think so. Otherwise I agree totally.
EV's can't do what ICE vehicle do now! And this is main reason why most people don't want them. EV's don't protect the environment or use less energy either. The governments and corporations are pushing EV's on the public that doesn't want them or need them.
and then there is just plain stupid statements by head in the sand big oil shills
Ignorance is dangerous. The few EVs made today can do most of what ICE vehicles need to do. What they can't do is produce air pollution. EVs use less irreplaceable resources over their lifetimes. They take roughly the same total amount of materials to produce, most of which - including the batteries - is recyclable. The majority of new electric generating capacity is from sun, wind, and solar. This energy is intercepted, used within a short tine and all returned to the planet as the same amount of heat it would have been if not intercepted. Each ICE will burn thousands of pounds of petroleum over its lifetime, all of which was stored inertly for millions of years, and release tens of millions of Kcal of energy as heat.
You really should get more diverse news sources - don’t sit by and get mislead
@@psdaengr911 ~ Vetting government and corporate speech for ignorance is the job of the PUBLIC, when they call carbon dioxide a greenhouse dangerous gas it's our job to vet that claim. If it isn't true than it's a lie that leads people away from truth into ignorance and the evil consequences of being ignorant. Likely liars want to hide the truth and protect their control over people and the marketplace.
@@psdaengr911 ~ Truth is the antidote for lies. The power has to be generated, transmitted via power lines to charge EV batteries which is less efficient than petrol cars. Much of the power generated comes from oil, gas and coal. It takes thousands of tons minerals to manufacture one lithium-ion battery, this requires large amounts petrol powered vehicles to do this. So EVs aren't energy efficient and aren't environmentally friendly. And the manufacture of them does create air pollution. ~ The EV mandates in effect takes the average American out of his petrol car into an into a more expensive and less useful EV, that has less range and utility. ~ Maybe this comment will be posted this time, the last one I made didn't get posted.
I WILL CHOOSE GAS OVER EV ANY DAY SO MUCH FOR THIS ZERO EMISSIONS CRAP
Tezla not on this list? I guess there are still rich idiots in the world that haven't been bilked yet!
I'm not a fan of EVs, but if you're going to get one, Tesla is the only logical choice.
Tesla is not on this list, because they're selling! Over half the EV's sold are Tesla, all the others combined, make up the other 50%. As more and more EV's hit the market, that half of the pie is sliced into thinner and thinner slices. It's very hard for legacy auto makers to keep up with the improvements in EV technology, with companies that build and sell EV exclusively.
The ONLY reason to buy an EV is if you don't like $$$.
You buy an EV to save $$$, but ONLY if you can charge at home. If you have to rely wholly and solely on public DC fast charging, you're money ahead to fuel an ICE, especially, if it's a Hybrid. I don't recommend EV, unless you can charge at home.
