- EVs Owners Had ENOUGH & SWITCHING BACK to Gas Cars! EV market is turning into a nightmare? Charging troubles, lack of infrastructure, range anxiety - EV owners are desperate. Because, electric cars are still not good enough to replace their gas-powered counterparts and these owners learned the hard way, from their own experience. Growing disparity between the supply and demand of EVs does not uniformly affect all models but most of EVs. We uncover the surprising trends and developments in the world of EVs and how it impcats the EV owners. Is the electric car revolution stalling? Buckle up and explore the reasons why some drivers are ditching their Electric Car. Watch and see if EVs are still the future, or if gas-powered cars are making a comeback!

😊 Hey guys! We created the Chase Car channel to give viewers a broad overview of the upcoming new cars from the top car manufacturers. We are huge fans of pickup trucks of all sizes: compact, mid-size and full-size trucks. So mostly, we will cover new upcoming trucks, but besides that, here you can find a lot of content about new sedans and SUVs too.
The Electric Vehicle wave sooner or later will become huge, so this type of content might appear on this channel from time to time. But as we are still on the way to becoming fully electrical, we mostly cover fossil cars from many amazing brands.

🏆Are EVs A SCAM?🤔
🔴THIS Has NEVER HAPPENED Before In The EV Market WATCH HERE 👉th-cam.com/video/zcbj9ssNGVo/w-d-xo.html
It's not a scam ...but who is in charge are the scammers there a difference....first of all batteries can be made universal....which means hot swappable n cheaper ....so u don't go to charge ur car u swab batteries ....now here is the scam is too expensive for less product
The cars are cheaply built with improve technology....I'm no idiot I prefer a well built vehicle than fancy gadgets I have kids n there life is more important than mine
EVs are a scam popularized by Elon Musk to build a company to suck investor money, government subsidies and carbon tax credits.
EVs are not environmentally friendly.
EVs are very wasteful of energy.
EVs cannot be recycled.
EVs are a fire hazard.
This is only happening in the US .. IF You go to Asia .. EV is Massive ! Something wrong with the USA .. totally backward. America was a champion for the Zero Emission and Yet is the one who deny it. Perhaps the OIL companies won't let go the business of Gas !
Government forcing the use of electric cars is the bigger issue .
I agree that government should not get involved BUT they are. With the rebate, the Tesla Y is the same prices as a low end Camry.
EV incentives are no where near the numbers that ICE vehicles and Big Oil have gotten historically but you're right, ALL incentives should be ended. EVs are strong enough on their own now and don't need them anymore. Maybe legacy ICE makers who make EVs will be needing another couple of bailouts in the next couple of years so the government should be saving their money for that.
Government dictates most of your life !!
Government literally means, control of mind !!!
@@DrEd-th2lu
Where are you?
@@DrEd-th2lubut no one is fighting: Most people haven't even noticed a problem. I got the el cheapo Ford Fiesta in 2017 (5 speed stick not the goofy automatic and not the turbo). I figured I'd drive it 125k and then get a proper econobox like a Honda Fit. Funny thing happened though. They quit selling all of these models in the USA. Now I'm stuck driving the car forever because they no longer sell replacements.
EVs are toys for folks with too much money.
Toys that go 💥
So EV haters are folks with no money?
And time also which tends to go with wealth. They tend to be able to do things in their own time and not be under pressure from others on what to do and when.
I do not understand this....
Because drivingan EV saved me 60 grant (inn euro) in 8 years time (2013 to 2021) compared to driving a same sized ICE car. (Calculation based on TCO with 30000 km/year driving)
For this 60 grants I bought , cash, an ioniq 5 in 2021...still driving that .
@@reiniernn9071 Videos like these are full of miss information and being driven by the fossil fuel market. As you know, people are flocking to EV's all over the world, not because the have to, but they see the advantages.

Why buy a car that's way more expensive but worse, makes no sense.
True. Gas cars don't make sense anymore.
If you're in US, Tesla Model Y is cheaper than the average new car price. Indisputable fact.
@blackstock333
I can buy a lot of gas for your $700 dollar car payment and increase insurance premium. I can also fix my gas vehicles with my own hands. You have fun with your rolling computer
@@OIllllO All modern vehicles are "computers on wheels" Very little to go wrong with a Tesla. Try one at least. I leave the Diesel truck at home most of the time now.
Gas cars don't make sense anymore? Unless you buy an EV form china ,yes it does. The Chinese makes EVs with ranges of over 600 miles. Not available in the United States. If they were, i would have a Zeekr in my driveway right now. With my travels which is over 6,000 miles a year, i just can't use a car that makes you sit 20, 30 minutes for a short range. I have a Jaguar XJL. A large full size luxury automobile which tesla dosent even make. Paid off at 41K, 570 miles of range which supersedes any EV in America. Improve the EV with these fine qualities and improvements shit, now we're talkin!!! I would be the first one at the gates to buy one! Till then, I'll keep my jaguar XJl and leave well enough alone.....
You realise you’ve bought a lemon when you go back to your favourite car dealer of EVs to buy a new car and the dealer doesn’t want to trade in your 2 or 3 year old vehicle
Correct
Why trade in a car?
that fool on Aging Wheels bought a Polestar 2 years ago...he owes TWICE what the car is worth, its now out of warranty, and drum role.....it needs the motor and axles replaced due to a faulty bearing.
imagine owing twice what the car is worth and being on the hook for several thousand dollars in repair bills and it only has 77k miles on it.
@@MrSGL21 sounds like half the idiots that paid $100k for a truck
The biggest problem is that there is no way of telling how healthy the battery is when looking at buying 2nd hand, and that is why the 2nd hand market is dead.
There is a way of telling. There are diagnostic tools you can plug in to the car which give a battery health check. It's like buying any second hand car: you take it to an expert for a pre purchase inspection. Don't rely on lifting the hood yourself and trying to figure it out.
Most batteries today have expected life spans of 300-400k miles so I'd trust their condition more than an ICE engine with half the miles.
Biggest problem is a few people making rules for alot of people
@@billjohnson9221 The key word is expected. But what is the reality.
@@billjohnson9221 the reality is alot can make it to 300k.

Then don't buy one. No-one is forcing you. You can still drive your ICE vehicle after 2035.
What was the first internal combustion engine vehicle, and when? If you want your country dependent on oil from another country, stick with an internal combustion engine.

These days EV batteries last 1 million miles.
@steveinoz8188 not if they get a dent in them.
In Canada
@@steveinoz8188who told you that? EVs haven’t been around long enough for any conclusive testing. The owners of them now are the guinea pigs. If it truly lasts a million miles, great. But I seriously doubt it. 8-10 years if you’re lucky. The battery is so expensive purposely to get you back in the dealership instead of holding onto one car for decades.
@@grazz7865 tesla has been selling ev's since 2013. Largely The batteries hold up and Tesla batteries have an 8 year waranty. And the cost of batteries is falling quickly and dramatically. . And avoid the dealership, Buy from a manufacturer that doesnt use the dealership model: Tesla. Don't take my word for it. Check it out for yourself
I love when EV owners try to convince non-EV owners to make the same mistake they made. Just "enjoy" your EV experience; we're not interested. Thank you, and have an electrifying day!
EV owners are the vegans of the car world.
I still haven't figured out the "green" part of coal-powered cars.
And this comment gets no replies because it’s over the head of most the EV greenies!
Isn't carbon footprint lowest in diesel engines anyways
The answer has been in front of them for decades…hybrids. It started like this and worked great. The first auto manufacturer to put their efforts towards a more efficient hybrid system will win this battle.
Toyota
Hybrids still produce emissions when they run the goal is to end as much emissions as we can. Hybrids are the answer for the long distance commute. We need Hybrids that can actually plug in and have a decent battery. putting an ICE in a EV and powering it off the ICE is straight up pointless and actively antithetical to the point of EV's. Again Hybrids are best when we can treat them as EV's with an engine as backup. Moving entirely to EV's without a transitional step will make much of this harder without real need.
No. In a lab yes. In the real world people are not plugging in PHEVs the way the manufacturers test them. A mild hybrid in town is best for stop start traffic because it’s lighter. The use case for a PHEV where it beats a mild hybrid or a BEV or something like an Atkinson cycle HEV is extremely narrow. It’s right around the 60 mile pure electric summer or 40 mile pure electric winter range.
They are heavier.
They are more complex .
Their battery chemistry is the same as a BEV.
Their engines need servicing.
Their engines need to turn over occasionally to remain sealed and lubricated
@@theshi3152U cant end emissions. Ur eco activist do more emissions with their private planes. Car emissions are no problem
@@madhunter6420 transportation emission are the largest source of emissios.. so your just out right wrong. we actually emit way more per Vehicle than most do in their entire lives with a plane. you want to complain then complain to the Rich. they are the problem they always have been. Car emissions alone consume nearly all of our natural Co2 budget. So try again please. your simply wrong.
I think the depreciation is one of the biggest problems. I watched another channel where the owner of a Polestar 2 provided an update after 2 years of ownership. The car had already lost 60% of it's value and once the battery warranty expires after 100,000 miles the car will have lost 75% of it's value in less than 3 years, that's pretty wild. However it's understandable people don't want to pay a lot for a car when replacing the battery will cost more than twice the value of the car. Also understandable dealer don't want to sell used EVs out of warranty as they have to provide some warranty and they could end up losing a lot of money.
Wow , someone who spelled losing correctly.
Then I gather he wouldn't have sold his car.
@@steveinoz8188 He is stuck with it now as it's only worth half of what he still owes on the car.
@@TheStuffMade I've got a 2008 4wd that has depreciated a lot but still runs OK. I'm in no hurry to sell it.
@@steveinoz8188 That's a lot different, your car is 16 years old, his car is 2 years old.
Those charging stations with the solar panels for decoration. Those don't even produce enough to power the lights under the canopy. What a F ing joke
What makes you think they are there to charge the car?
Any actual facts to back that statement up ??
COME ON MAN THEY WILL CHARGE YOUR CAR BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO LEAVE IT THERE FOR A MONTH! COME ON MAN!!!!!!!!
A month for what lol .. they doing wraps now 😂
"Those charging stations with the solar panels for decoration. Those don't even produce enough to power the lights under the canopy. What a F ing joke".
1000 W/m2 of free energy from PV panels from roughly 10am to 3pm.; your lack of knowledge notwithstanding.
I started building electric cars in the 70s... I soon abandoned that idea after i figured out the vehicle would never be more than a environmental disaster.
Nobody wants them.
They dont have resell or junk value.
You cant travel continuously from point A to point B across multiple states.
Youll spend half your vacation waiting for your vehicle to be able to continue.
Who wants ev charging stations at a state park or national forest...not me personally.
EVs today have a weight and combustion problem.
I'm a expert at propulsion engineering.
I started build EVs in my teens. I received my degree through the military.
And even with a degree I could see EVs no matter the configuration are just built for single purpose use.
Trains, submarines and other hybrids still consume more than a conventional gasoline or diesel.
Theres a parasitic loss in converting electric power.
EVs just cut out the ability to recharge anywhere.
They arent viable in any form except localized driving.
Very good points. They will establish as local non polluting silent vechicles, for a long time.which is still a big gain for the cities.
the only EV's that make sense are the bicycles and smaller "vehicles"...
Or golf carts! I love my Electric golf cart! 😂
@@Mattius08 sure... any smaller short range small vehicle can make sense.
It will work for small tropical countries like Barbados, but the government will have to double its electricity production and all citizens will have to pay for this upgrade weather or or not you own an electric car or truck.
@@magikindian as if power demands dont increase in a expoential fashion as it is? like EV's isn't the cause of this.. will it make it worse. yea but we need more power anyways. regardless of EV or not. access to cheap power is the LARGEST determining factor for an Economy's growth. period.. more power.. means cheaper stuff.
yup PEVS. bikes, scooters, one wheels, EUCs. I got an ebike. electric lawn mowers are now down to what a gas mower costs. i just priced them at walmart the other day. i have one its a push mower. i use it when my gas mower breaks which is like 3 or 4 times a year. i think the gas mower is gonna get sold this summer and i'm going to get a self propelled electric.
Truth hurts the EV owners here.
Not me
Advertising for EVs is the biggest problem they basically lie about them continuously quoting inflated range claims charging times and the so called network that has failed chargers have to wait for them to be free to use
I got my first EV almost 2 months ago. I purchased a Tesla model Y. I could care less about the fairytale of man made global warming. Go Trump BTW. I bought the Tesla for local driving and I slow charge it at home each night. I also live in TN so it does not get crazy cold and power is cheap. It costs 2.8 cents per mile to drive the Tesla Y. It cost 13.3 cents per mile to drive my Camry. I am saving about 50 dollars a month on fuel and I do not need to refill at a charging station unless I take a 300 mile trip. Over all I am very pleased with the EV. I of course did go with a tesla since that is what they do instead of a ford or some other company pretending to do EV cars. Most of the EV complaints appear to be non tesla complaints. When the solid state batteries come out range will no longer be an issue but needing a strong electric grid will be needed of course.
Wow, that’s great. You are speaking for yourself. Not the majority.
@@Splendid_Lad Most of what I said would be true for everyone. Live and learn kiddo.
It surprising me the car industry thought shittier versions of Teslas were going to sell.

The biggest problem is processing lithium takes a mass amount of fresh water the very thing that runs the hydro plants, but the processed water is not reclaimable.

I enjoy exploring the western US and I have found towns that don't have gas stations much less charging stations. When I was in Alpine, TX the nearest charging station was in Fort Stockton, some 65 miles away.
Your EV would tell you that.

@@geoffeaton3928 Just like the 20 year warranty on Chinese solar panels, the companies just go insolvent before any warranty period is honored. This is standard practice with Chinese products.

@@enigmaticloremaster1700 Correct
As if we all didnt know that was going to happen....
Evs are very expensive to buy
Very expensive to insure
Very expensive to repair and maintain
Unreliable and poorly built ...
And the depreciation is like falling off a cliff .......
So why would you even buy one ...?
Relative cheaper than the BMWs I used to buy. A little more ($200), but not much more expensive to insure than BMW.
Much cheaper to maintain and operate. (5.5 years in) Extremely reliable (thus cheap to maintain) and still good as new. Due to constant software enhancements it's like new car. Bought two Tesla to replace BMWs. 99.5% I just charge at home, takes 5 seconds to plug it in. 1/3 the cost of gas to run.
"Evs are very expensive to buy " .... and enormously less expensive to run. I've had zero maintenance on my 2017 Bolt, it's totally trouble free, and saves me about $50/week on gas, not to mention no oil changes, brake pad changes, etc,. etc. It saves us so much on a weekly basis that our budget has improved significantly.
Funny how this 'news channel' fails to mention that the very same Consumer Reports article it references says (directly from the article): The Model Y joins the Model 3 in earning CR Recommended status.
“Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y are now the sweet spot in the automotive industry when it comes to building electric cars,” Fisher says. “While Tesla is still a relatively new car company, it has more experience producing EVs than any other automaker.”
“While Tesla’s EV components are generally reliable, the company continues to struggle with the build quality of its vehicles,” says Steven Elek, who leads the auto data analytics program at CR. “Tesla powertrains are now pretty solid for the most part, but Tesla owners report a lot of build quality issues including irregular paint, broken trim, door handles that don’t work, and trunks that don’t close. All of these pull down the brand’s reliability score.”
To be a less shitty channel, you might want to include more representative info. Thanks & take care!
These channels are supported/ endorsed by the fossil fuel industry , which is spending millions on anti EV propaganda. If EV's are so bad, why is the uptake continuing to grow at an ever increasing rate?
Cheers,

I have comments that i left on TH-cam, some of which are almost a decade old (I have many still in archive) where I predicted all of these things and more. And I have earned the right to say.... I told you so!
Give them another 10 years and they will all be creating a landfill problem
thats exactly want i do with my ev. i only use it within the range it can travel, if i have to go farther or on trips i use my gasoline car. i have had my ev for 3 years now and i have not once charged it on a public charger. i still love to drive it, you cant beat the smooth and powerful drive train of a ev but if i only could afford one car it probably would not be an ev because of the public chargers.
EVs sales are growing everywhere on the planet. (50% in China, 95% in Norway, 8% in USA, etc.).
To conquer the rest of the world market, electric cars (EVs) only have to be technically superior to the Internal Combustion Engine cars (ICE). It’s clearly the case.
1. EVs are simpler to make: Tesla, for instance, has reduced the number of pieces for the front part of the vehicle from 70 pieces to only one. (It’s the same thing for the rear part of its vehicles.)
2. Tesla, BYD and Volvo demonstrated that it was possible to produce profitable EVs; something legacy producers like GM or Toyota are unable to do. It’s because they feared bankruptcy that many companies stopped producing EVs.
3. The price of EVs is falling rapidly due to the rapidly falling price of their batteries (- 30% in 2023).
4. No cobalt or nickel are used to produce the most modern EVs.
5. EVs pollute much less than ICE cars, especially when they move.
6. EVs are more stable on roads because their heavy batteries are located at the bottom of the car.
7. EVS protect better their occupants when there is a collision due to the rigidity of their battery packs.
8. There are fewer than ten (10) moving parts in an EV engine compared to more than a thousand in an ICE car. That reduction in the number of pieces means that less machinery are used to produce them. As a result, producing electric cars creates less pollution.
9. EVs accelerate more rapidly than ICE cars when their drivers try to overtake other cars.
10. The brakes on an EV last much longer due to their regenerative braking system.
11. The dashboard of an EV is much simpler to produce since almost all the controls are on the on-board computer.
12. There are fewer liquids in an EV (windshield cleaning fluid, battery fluid).
13. EVs are roomier than ICE cars because their engines are much smaller.
14. Most technical problems on an EV can be solved ¨over the air¨ without having to go to a dealer.
15. EVs don’t need to go to the dealer for regular maintenance.
16. Everybody can buy an EV on the Internet without having to go to a dealer.
17. Recharging an EV is 80% cheaper than filling the tank of an ICE car.
18. Nowadays, there are multiple ways to produce electricity. (N.B. In 2023, solar panels are the cheapest way to produce electricity. And they almost never need long transmission lines).
19. Nowadays, charging stations are everywhere while the number of gas stations is decreasing.
20. Contrary to ICE cars, EVs can be recharged at home.
21. EV owners say they have no problem with the autonomy of their vehicle.
22. If EVs explode from time to time, 200,000 ICE cars explode every year in USA.
23. Finally, we need to replace ICE cars with EVs for two other reasons. First, because petroleum is becoming scarcer on the planet and, second, because we all need to stop depending on an explosive region like the Middle East for our main source of energy.
24. Etc.
The low running costs never factored in the cost of subsidization!
We need to tell our elected public servants to stop forcing this nonsense of battery cars down our throats!!!! We will not tolerate this!!!
The EV infrastructure in Canada is nowhere near where it needs to be to support the federal government’s planned mandate for EV sales imposed on manufacturers. Additionally it’s easy to see that when tax revenue from petroleum sales drops, the feds will come after EV drivers as well as increasing taxation on other sources. Add in that while EVs might be cleaner to drive depending on how electricity is generated in your area, the carbon footprint in their manufacturing isn’t stellar.
5 years out we should see solid state batteries in more mainstream, while waiting for charging infrastructure and electricity generation to catch up. Batteries would just get cheaper to keep lowering the ownership entry.
Anyone who remembers the 70's "gas crisis" and is buying a "new" car should consider a plug in hybrid. As the price of gas goes up and it's availability declines having the ability to run "all electric" is a great option. The battery packs are smaller and less expensive to replace than those in a pure EV, and as long as gas is available you don't have range anxiety and when not charging at home can "fill up" at a gas station in 5 minutes.
the slow charging of these things and abysmal range would be to annoying for me and the most plugin buyers buyed an bev next anyways so it was a money pit
Depreciation 😂😂😂, I don't buy anything I don't plan to keep. when it is wornout, then I get a new one.
Lol. Yep. My 2010 Toyota FJ is still going strong. At 100k miles, its just broken in. 😂
"Second or even third vehicles" I have FIVE internal combustion powered cars, all run fine, they are all registered and insured, and four of them are carbureted.
Don't forget several states are now taxing ev owners an annual fee to replace the milage fees. 😅
If you don't buy a tesla, these things can be true. But largely, tesla has mastered these problems. Go check it out. Dont take my word for it.
I have ! they are expensive , they have shocking build and software. Repairs are astromical and they still catch fire
I agree.
You are correct. The leaf is also solid, but not much range.
Sold Tesla after 6 months. It is creepy junk
Yea great they use billion of gallons of fresh water to process lithium that is not reclaimable.
I just bought a 2y old Toyota Corolla full Hybrid. Best decision. No charging and less fuel needed. Also very reliable!
When needed to replace my 17 year old Hybrid in 2022, I considered an EV. But in addition to the cost, I did not see it practical for my uses due to range and lack of support infrastructure. I went for a PHEV instead.
Glad I did. It has been the best of both worlds for my uses.
Call Biden and see if he is riding in one
5:24 yes, GM has crap EVs. Shocking?
So does tesla. They are filled with Panel Gaps. 😂
The "Blazer" may be the most perfect name for an EV ever. 😂🤣
You are so right, we have a plug in hybrid for only local driving. For long trips, we take the gas car.
i believe hybrid hasn't been developed to it's highest potential, mainly because the people who think they are the masters of the universe don't want the drones to have autonomy, i think two balanced turbines directly powering the drive moters & charging batteries at set RPM eliminating reving an engine is the most efficient & versatile set-up, when you upgraded you don't need to remodel the car as it's connected by leads 'you don't need to rewire a house when you change your kettle' and maybe if you're eco home needs a top up after work, you plug your house into the car instead of car into house
PS, also you can service it like a starter motor or an alternator just drop the old one off at a parts store and take a reconditioned replacement.
I don’t mind paying, but I drive from Texas to D.C., I can’t get where I need to be on time.
world needs that 3 cylinder geo metro minimalist cars again.. we do not need no 60$+ technologial drm riddle nightmares called evs.. looking back the Geo metro 3 cylinder WAs a GODDANM Technological wonder..

@@geoffeaton3928 400000 miles in an EV, that is a good chunk of a lifetime spent hanging around charging points, as that kind of mileage means a lot of time is spent away from home charging.
EV sales have been increasing since 2020. The rate of increase has slowed somewhat this year but not stopped.

Teslas stock price is down 40% this year due to those slumping sale numbers. While Ford and Chevy have lost 10s of billions of dollars from the sale of EVs.
@@OIllllO Despite near-term challenges in some markets, based on today's policy settings, almost 1 in 3 cars on the roads in China by 2030 is set to be electric, and almost 1 in 5 in both United States and European Union
More than one in five cars sold worldwide this year is expected to be electric, with surging demand projected over the next decade set to remake the global auto industry and significantly reduce oil consumption for road transport, according to the new edition of the IEA’s annual Global EV Outlook.
@tims8603 Well China still has millions of slaves so I don't really care about what they have to say. Here in the US Ford and Chevy have lost billions of dollars due to EVs. If there was a surge in demand dealers would want them on their lots but they don't.
Telsa is still all the rage for the tech junkies but like stated their sale numbers are in decline. Toyota isn't even interested in making EVs.
That Global EV outlook looks more like ta fallacy to me.
@@tims8603
I just saw Tesla was set to lay of 2600 employees in Texas. Seems odd with this expected surge in demand you're speaking of.
@@OIllllO I already mentioned that there has been a downturn this year. Tesla has a lot of unsold inventory. The economy is doing better than it was during the pandemic but it's still sluggish. Tesla has reduced prices recently which will help them. They also are facing more competition now.
if you are a multi-car family i think it is possible to have one of them electric. i have had hybrids in the past and they are great for a single person with no back-up.
Everyone, I know is installing solar panels on their roof and charging their EVs at home. They sell power back to the power company most of the year. Pretty good deal!
As a 2nd vehicle they make sense. Commute back and forth, charge overnight at home, sure. But without a garage and a level II charger, nah.
Yet still you will get ripped off big time
And that is ignoring totally that the electricity grid cannot supply the power for cheap home charging
I think you just need the garage or at least that is all I need. It charges at 4.8 miles per hour doing the slow method and I am fine with that.
@@frankgriffin6293if you can run a hair dryer you can charge your EV.
You can set your charger to 10 amps for example .
At 240 volts that would be 2.4 kw
Gives you 10 miles of range added per hour..
80 miles overnight more than enough for most people's daily drive.
You don't need a garage to charge just a place to park your vehicle on your property.
A level 2 charger can be set to charge down to 5 amps which is less than half of a hair dryer..
@@tandme2342when is the grid going to stop me from cheap home charging ..
I am waiting..
In the meantime I am cheaply charging at home
Even a lower price EV is a reality, like an inkjet printer, the insurance EV premium skyrocketed due to shortage of parts and EV skill labor, new model parts are so scared that could wait for months. A good fit for high income earner though.
Home charging at worst is 7kW. In 1 hour you will have 7 kWh. After 10 hours you will add 70kWh to the battery. Most EVs have a battery that can easily be charged at less than 10 hours overnight. At 25 cents per kW hr (off peak) that's $2.50. Most EVs will travel 250 mile or more with 70kWh of charge.
Average daily traveling is under 100 miles
@@13thbiosphere So a 4 hr charge would be fine.
You don't want that potential firebomb to charge at home in your garage. That might also void your home- and content insurance...
Better check your math.
@@jackmorganfiftyfive statistically petrol cars are just as dangerous as a fire bomb, the few electric cars that do explode get massive publicity but all the gas guzzling cars that explode although that's just normal
Some information might be true to a certain level of EVs. I bought a tesla model 3, and it's the best decision I've made and will never go back to gasoline car. I've traveled in my tesla long distances and never faced an issue with charging. In fact, i enjoy traveling in my tesla than i ever did in my previous gas cars. Tesla super chargers are everywhere and are the most reliable. The quick response and agility of the car compares to many expensive gas cars. When you charge at home, the cost is 1/5 th of gas and never have to stop at a gas station. Charging outside is about half the cost of gasoline. The range anxiety is the problem with most non ev users, but a 250 range would be more than enough for 4 day use without recharging (at home). Tires last as long as a regular car, but all depends on your frequent rotation and driving habit. Mine rated at 40k miles and have over 44k and are still going. EVs have smooth and quieter rides, instant torque, no smell nor fumes, no oil changes, and the best part is never having to stop at a gas station line. They are cheaper to maintain on the long run.
EVs are inevitable. There are only 2 factors that need to be improved - charging infrastructure and battery tech/price. I live in Norway which is world leader in EV implementation, I owned already several EVs and I will never go back to ICE. I even did few trips across the whole Europe and never had a single range anxiety nor trouble finding charger. I charged every time I wanted to take a break and the car charged so fast I barely managed to get food and get back to unplug the car. The batteries are good enough already, but once charging takes less than 10 minutes and the batteries will reliably last 15 years and will cost under 5000 EUR to replace, there will be absolutely no reason to even think about ICE. EVs are much much simpler mechanically and generally don't require almost any maintenance. In US the biggest problem might be lower voltage network and the fact that people like to drive tanks instead of normal sized cars. But the latter is also something that is more of a sentimental (or mental) issue than a real problem.
If EVs are so great, why does the government pay you to buy them?
I love my EV that I now own for 4 years, but its a pain in the as@e for country drives !
You can’t own a Ev vehicles in Norther Ontario Canada, It’s just to cold and no charging stations you have to wait for hours to charge at home.
Have been driving EVs for 7 years. Purchased 3 EVs all paid in cash.
My next car will be…. Paid in cash as well, and will be an EV also.
Well you can obviously afford to waste money but most of us normal people can,t so that is why only only very wealthy or fools buy EV,s
@@richardschultz6815 “Normal” is that what they call people who are in debt these days? If you keep financing or leasing those cars with debt then you will be stuck with having forever car payments.
Find a way to get out of that hole. Being “normal” sucks and is not the way to go.
I don’t waste anything. My cars go to family members who can use it after some number of years at no cost to them.
Yes mate and it is still a concern with the big brother technology of the software that is installed whereby the data is sent back to whatever manufacturer or source who are interested in gathering that usage and personal data and that poses a significant risk of breaching your privacy and security of your information. This is also true of the phone apps that one has to have to be able to use/charge their EV's!!
When Tesla first came out, I was stunned by the technology. I could not afford one, so I purchased Toyota hybrid vehicles. I considered a plug-in hybrid, but then Toyota embraced DEI, so I am hanging on to my hybrids. Sadly I recently learned that Toyota engineered a plastic part into the electric water pump of my hybrids leading them to fail much earlier than they should. Now I must replace this pump and the radiator in the cooling system at substantial expense before they prematurely destroy the engines on my aging vehicles. It is very difficult for me to have faith in any manufacturer or dealer anymore. Woke racist and sexist BS combined with engineered obsolescence make buying any vehicle a painful and costly experience.
To be Frank , manual gear box gas or diesel cars are the best for the general public
this entire thread and video is nothing but fake news and bullshit anecdotes with absolutely no data or supporting information. soo good soo glad you guys know how to do research and link your sources!
I'm a wholesaler and dealers are getting tradeins left and right from EV owners switching to gas units. The dealers are flooding the auctions with these EVs. I find it funny because these auctions can't handle the EVs because they are all dead and they don't have anywhere to charge them. 😂
I'll enjoy driving my 2001 TA WS6 manual 6 speed. It's not about miles to the gallon. It's HOW MANY SMILES TO THE GALLON.
Learn from Toyota! Buy a Hybrid! Toyota has the reliability and dependability for decades with their cars and they know what works! ❤
Three cheers for frying the planet. Big oil is investing big in air conditioners.
I love my EV for the city. For road trips, we’re not there yet.
How do you think your EV battery is made with rainbows ? Don’t virtue signal without the facts of how resources for EV batteries are mined and produced as they are not environmentally friendly and neither is the waste produced from flat batteries.
The Climate con has worked on low hanging fruit of ICE cars ,that EV buyers actually think they are somehow better for buying and EV ,which equals Environmental Vandalism in more ways than one.
I will stick to my ICE car ,which can be adapted to more sustainable fuels technology in the future ,while you pay through the nose for replacement battery and watch your other battery go into land fill ,yeah really environmentally friendly when you replace EV batteries.
Ebikes are ok but evs aren't worth it yet
@@peterrichards1058 Couldn't agree more
@@peterrichards1058 But they dont produce a substantial amount of Emissions. Mining will always be a thing we will always have need for resources. but spewing shit into the Air. we dont need that. we dont need to activly poison our air because we burn shit. Yes Batteries take metals. Yes mining metals is ecologically damaging. the issue isn't the damage. its the Emissions. Climate change isn't caused by enviormental damage. its caused by THE AIR the emissions we spew. the shit we put into our air. not the fact we dug a damn pit.
6:18 Since they are heavier there will be additional brake wear as well.
Also during a natural disaster you are screwed. Especially if the power is out and then the time needed to charge. Also if you have 4 people and everything they can carry your range can greatly diminish. At least with an ICE you can carry extra fuel and double or triple your range.
@kennethboyer2338 there is almost no brake wear on an EV provided the driver uses regenerative braking. It's easy to find EVs with 150K+ miles on their original brake pads. Also, EV tires don't wear faster due to weight. They do wear faster if the EV driver "enjoys" all the extra power on offer regularly 😀
The guy in this video is saying a lot of stuff that is already outdated, exaggerate or untrue.
Sounds like the same arguments that people had when horses were standard and petrol cars. But now we know the petrol energy kills so many people and that without doubt that gasoline will run dry very soon.
It still can replace gas cars if they use different battery material like sodium or graphene or whatever. The thing is it can recharge battery way way quicker, more durable to any weather condition, and way more range then lithium ion. But yea not sure why we still using lithium when its time to research on different battery material not sure why taking so damn long lol.
It requires fossil fuels to mine, manufacture,transport and charge the EV.
not to mention child slave labor, ruined fresh water from the lithium settling ponds etc.
@@user-cs5km2oo4b and we should stop driving ICE because of fracking and what it does to environment...
Yes it does. But it takes 300 to 400 times more resources to build and run an ICE through its whole lifetime compared to an EV. Even if you charge an EV using Europe's dirtiest coal power station it is still a tiny fraction of the emissions an ICE generates.
@@AdrianHilder very valid point the resource impact comparison (even if the dirties coal you find in places like India). EVs are not the panacea but hugely more sustainable thatn ICEs. The reactions to this video show how difficult it is to talk objectively about the differences of EVs vs ICEs in a country where climate change has been so totally politicized and half of the population have been duped into thinking that humans' role in it is a hoax. Obviously that illusion makes one feel good to keep doing things like driving ICEs that bit by bit destroy the future of our kids. Anyway, China is going electric big time (dumping ICEs to Russians) and so do we in Europe (+ to green H2).
@@eeroailio8168 Years ago because I didn't want to be fooled in thinking global warming was man made I did some research into why we think it is. We know where elevated CO2 in the atmosphere comes from - industry, cars, plus others and a big one is international shipping. What remained for me to discover is how we know it is mostly CO2 causing the warming. Well, we have satellites with spectroscopy instruments that can detect how much electromagnetic radiation from the sun is absorbed in the atmosphere and at what wave lengths. Most is absorbed at a wave length CO2 will absorbs. Case close - global warming is man made and happening at a speed unprecedent in the geological history we are able to measure. There is no hiding from this.
Yeah, that's were Tesla was smart about installing a nationwide charging infrastructure and is why Tesla sales are way ahead of other EV's who lack charging locations.
WRONG.
This is a lot of biased information. I have friend that drove his Tesla from Montreal to Florida in 3 days with no problems or issues of any kind. Tesla chargers are 99 % reliable and inexpensive to use.
If they are so great then why are 93% of all car sales (in the US) Gas cars?
If they are so great then why does the government have to pay you to buy one?

Well I've had my Tesla since 2018 I'm never going to go to fuel. I've also taken plenty of road trips.
Great Darmou. You're doing well so the rest of the world shouldn't have any problems too...
Agree. I have a Jeep Wrangler and a Tesla model Y. The Jeep hasn’t left the garage in 2 months. Literally none of the issues highlighted in this video have impacted me. What in the world does the author of this video mean by saying using DC charging can cost more than gas??? This is very dishonest. I’m “filling my EV tank” for under $30 at the most expensive superchargers near Boston. Also, many of my family members that fall for these negative videos completely change their minds after driving my model Y.
What's a "roadtrip"? I habitually go 13-15 hours, 800ish miles, straight-thru. No long breaks for meals or anything else, fill up, grab some snacks, use the facilities, and back on the road. Sometimes switching drivers, sometimes not. There isn't an EV made today that will allow me to travel like I want/am used to. If it works for you, good for you. I'll never be buying one.
@@jackmorganfiftyfive Nah I know the rest of the word has problems, Electrify America is totally crap hence why all the car makers are adopting NACS, it's going to be rough road for a while unfortunately. In the video only Tesla owners seem to be happy with their cars probably because of the better charging network.
@@asajayunknown6290 I can't do that, even when I drove a petrol car I stopped every 2 hours for rest breaks if I was driving solo. Perhaps now I am using FSD more often I can drive a bit further who knows.

You’ve got to admit Blazer is probably the most appropriate name for an EV 😂

Any conveyance that requires a 1,000 pound battery will never be mainstream. Fix the dependence upon the battery and EVs could succeed. The electric part of the EV is generally good.. The huge chemical part is the big problem.
Nonsense, you have no clue about EVs
About the same as most pickup engines.
@@hanswallner2188
So you're saying that current EV batteries are light enough and the tech does not need improving?
I will make you a bet that when solid state batteries or some newer tech comes online that halves the weight, doubles the range and quadruples the fastest charge time, you'll see that current EV tech is at the same level digital camera's were when they had 2mp resolution! 😂
Not if China could eventually make EVs at half the price of gas powered cars. With cost of living continuing to go up, people will put up with any inconvenieces of EVs if they could save on the money for other things.
All EVs are not created equal. Those who can't afford one , should not buy one. Its funny how there are so many EV critics, who have bad things to say about EVs, when I see more and more teslas every day. Somebody must be buying them. Then I see about 100 times as many positive reviews as negative reviews. Either way, I can't wait to gety Cybertruck 😊.

Please help this video to reach the masses. Everything has been put perfectly into perspective.
Neither do the people who bought one in the first place.
Bought a used EV with 100TKM on the dashboard 7 years ago. Now at 310TKM. Never regretted it. Never had any serious problem charging, only when the 12V battery failed I had to jump start it and replace the 12V battery.
4:57 BIULD QUALITY 😆
No mention of fires/spontaneous combusion?
Boy, this guy has it all figured out (sic)! I will present the concept of the Aspirational car formally the province of the German car makers (i.e. Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Porsche... etc..) American, Italian, British and Japan have also had their moments in the Sun. but the new Aspirational car is Tesla (for more than electricity) and being chased by most legacy car makers (with little success). The Aspirational car is NOT a cheap car, but a car of expertise, refinement and serious advanced engineering far beyond the capability of a legacy car maker. In any form EV or ICE, this has NEVER been a car for the masses. Thomas Edison invented the electric light bulb over 100 years ago, yet there are still nearly a billion people that light the night with oil lamps and you can be sure there is an ICE car nearby within a kilometer. Toyota (masters of the international common car) is not ready to go all in on EV's (no matter what governments say or decree) but keeps its options open hybrids and limited EV's to satisfy some demand. However Toyota does NOT make an Aspirational car and is NOT betting the farm/company on EV's. There has always been a limited market for the Aspirational car and Tesla not only HAS IT, but makes handsome margins from it. EV sales will slow down and the battery problem is far from solved in chemistry and format; yet the advanced economies of the world desperately need this solution with Tesla leading the way.
I think we learned this 100 years ago?
Even Hydrogen station is limited mostly to California and it is expensive too even after getting a two year hydrogen credit card.
Lol... nope. I have to drive my BMW to keep the battery in good condition and take care of the brakes. But ever since I got my Tesla S I almost never drive my other cars.
You are singing the song of other EVs but Teslas couldnt be simpler.
3 times as expensive muppet
I agree. The other car companies are pretending to be EV companies and do a half ass job. I like my new Tesla Y so much I am planning on getting a new Model 3 if the rebates cover it in the near future. I will still have a gas minivan for long trips and hauling stuff.
Gas companies hiring people to Destroy Charging CORD for sure LOL also CORD are expensive with rare medals.
Their definitely going to Petroleum Jüicé powered Veee-Hikulls
When ANY EV producers can manufacture a truck that will give me the same range as my ICE Dodge pickup I would switch. Until that happens I'll be a loyal ICE vehicle.
