"They" almost certainly know the cost of EVs is beyond ordinary people. "They" don't want the plebs mobile, they want them in their allocated 15-Minute prison, owning nothing and being obedient.
I'm not sure "they" do know these things as you claim. "They" live in a little bubble, mixing only with others like "themselves" and have no comprehension of how the vast majority have to live. You can see this in the way in which different "theys" attempt to push people into using the Internet, or smart phones, or whatever other bright new technology for every little thing, without considering other people's circumstances may differ widely from their own.
You’re bang on, This is much bigger than ULEZ, that’s a test. They (Doesn’t matter who’s in power - CON or LAB) want to remove our freedoms, and they want total control over us. EV’s are part of that process. They want to say what you can eat, when you can travel, if at all. If you can heat your home and cook your food. If everyone is on Electricity it’s controllable, especially through smart meters. They track you through your smart phone already!
I couldn't buy one even if I wanted to (I don't). Like most people, I've no garage or driveway so I have no way of charging at home. The town where I live has ZERO public charging points. The nearest ones are about 45 minutes drive away, and I'm told by a neighbour who does own an EV that many of them are often out of order, and the others usually have a queue of cars waiting to use them.
The poor shadow Labour Chancellor has just said that she struggles on her 86k salary! Poor thing, how will she afford an EV Her husband works in the Civil Service on a salary of 170k! Poor things, they have a combined salaries of 256k! Poor things , how will they manage. They are all hypocrites.
The thing that makes me laugh is the adverts for electric cars. The vehicle is always way out in the wilds, or up a mountain miles from a charging station. I phoned my son the other day and said, how is your wife's new electric car. He replied what the piece of sh#t. They have had nothing but trouble with it.
There are so many things wrong with the claim that EVs are environmentally friendly. But one I hadn't considered yet is the environmental cost of scrapping perfectly serviceable ICE cars. The whole EV agenda would actually wreck the environment.
The REAL answer, is not the motorist but the petrol/fossil fuel industry. They are the ones that buy up all the inventions that would stop the use of oil.
@RichieReportsUK You are so right, I have a nice diesel car that is euro6 emission standards, and is 10 years old. I normally change my cars after 10 years, but this one is so good I'm going to keep it for a few more years.
Can you see car manufacturers surviving on the sales of Electric vehicles. Currently the sales are very low and unlikely to ever reach the volume of cars sold say ladt year. So the manufacturers face a greatly decreasing market because people dont want them, insurance companies dont really want them and they are unaffordable both to purchase and run
You might be told in comments by a EVangelist that sales are up on last year and China buy loads of EV's. Our EV sales market and most other parts of the globe have been mostly through lease hire firms who supply businesses and corporations with EV's to meet net zero targets, private buyers virtually non existent. The China large boom in EV sales is due to the car manufacturers and government registering unsold cars that are all stored in fields and then quietly taken away to be scrapped over the years. The Chinese have now started bringing them to this country and I wouldn't trust one. Seen enough facts on how safe a BYD car is to know its not to be approached at all as they are too hot to handle 🔥🔥🔥🔥
They will go bankrupt or move the vast majority of their manufacturing to China or other low cost countries like Mexico or Africa or other parts of Asia. The European car industry as far as manufacturing in Europe is doomed and it will happen very rapidly. Chinese ev manufacturers will dominate due to their price advantage, evs being so much more expensive than ice vehicles. The US vehicle manufacturers will also have to move production out of the US. Just like Tesla has.
The public should demand that all people connected to these decisions have their finances and affairs thoroughly checked. Like the PPE and vaccination fiasco, you can bet that these people making these decisions will directly or indirectly benefit financially from this. You have to ask, do we actually live in a free society if they can force things like this on us?
YES AGREE THEY GOING TO LOOK IN TO OUR BANK ACCOUNTS FOR EVIDENCE OF FRAUD,BUT WHAT ABOUT THE POLITICIANS BANK ACCOUNTS ,I WONDER HOW MUCH EVIDENCE IS LURKING THERE.
VAG are losing money hand over fist, Ford and GM have cut way back on EV production, and Chinese EVs are going off like bombs. Almost everywhere else on the planet is using ICE. If the UK/Europe is forced to go electric or public transport, the country will come to a literal stop, because anyone who has to commute will be unable to. Businesses will shut overnight, and people will end up fighting for food because we don't grow half of what we need, and there will be no-one to drive delivery vehicles as they will all be stuck at home. I'm not yet sure what these clown pulling the strings are up to, but they will need to watch their backs before long.
Best thing to happen would be everyone to refuse to buy an EV and get a new diesel/petrol vehicle instead not even a hybrid. I see EVs can be had at 0% finance nowadays, manufacturers only do this if they can't sell cars, either a certain model or range. Proves the point that they are stuck with EV's they can't sell. Car Finance companies are running scared because they are going to take a big hit on ex finance cars going to auction. Who wants a used EV at any price a 3yr old. And needing a replacement battery .
"Wrong" my car a 2012 electric car I'm still on the same batteries 55000 miles later. And I have lost 4% battery life but most electric cars have a 8 year warranty on batteries. It's also saved me £26,551.25 over 12 yrs or £2212.60 PA when I bought the car cost £33,750 (2012) today the car now worth £8,300 but when electric cars came on the market it was a nightmare to charge due to limited charges plus for a while charging was free, but as technology advances more and more vehicle charging points are popping up but the problem are different connecting, its a bit like video VHS or beta a victim of its own success this were electric vehicles are heading due to their high cost and lack of investment,if you look at the birth of the motor car 1908 The Model T was introduced to the world in 1908. Henry Ford wanted the Model T to be affordable, simple to operate, and durable. The vehicle was one of the first mass production vehicles, allowing Ford to achieve his aim of manufacturing the universal car which petrol and diesel have been around for such a long time, until governments except that global warming here to stay,people need transportation which has clearly shown they failed to invest in, as we all know trains, buses overcrowding,cut backs and ULEZ, all sorts of excuses, until a new henry ford or a vehicles manufacturer comes up with a mass EV for the mass be affordable, simple to operate, and durable.It will be another victim of it success like the video player, as a electric car owner i must say Petrol and diesel vehicles are here to stay. 👍👍👍
@@Nicmakingstuff agreed. I run 3 vehicles. 24 . 23 . 18 years old. No emissions crap on 2 diesels. Serviced every 5000 miles or 6 months. Cheap motoring.
It is SO SIMPLE FOLK. It's about CONTROL. What you drive , where you drive, how you drive, or IF you drive! Meanwhile........ The price of Electricity will Rise, and the PROFITS, and the shares in the electricity suppliers" you've guessed it!!!! Just call me skeptical.
Control is all they want. They want us to pretend it's to save the Planet. But as every year passes it shows the lies for what they are. Lets just leave EV's in the show room and Car manufacture's will have to tell the Government what to do with their Green Religious Cult Agenda.
That might be true, but ofgem are controlled by Parliament. Do you know anyone who's Electricity hasn't increased? You can pick out little details as much as you want, but You and everyone else is being "Controlled" and it can only get worse. Ulez, Caz, are raking in Massive amounts of income by way of fines and charges, and the "Pay by Mileage" is just around the corner. When Town and City Centres are turned into Ghost Towns, it will be too late. But you can come to your own decisions on all this, so just do it!
Just imagine every car on the road is electric, every one of those IP enabled. giving authorities access to your driving habits, speed, location etc. being to disable your car at the touch of a button.
All just a prologue to us being micro-chipped for the digital age. In the right hand or the forehead. Seen it coming for 20 years now, By 2030, it will all be here.
Imagine if people want to go to London to protest, all cars and public transport can be stopped. Even if public transport isn't stopped, anyone with an internet search history the would cause the government to be suspicious could find their Bank card doesn't work at the ticket office, or to make an on line payment.
Unless we stop buying EV's from the start in which case Car Manufacturing Companies will start complaining to the Government and giving them a hard time.
@@magfan77 Not buying them… It won’t be enough. No, we need to ensure that EVs are a total economic loss. And the only way to do so is, well… I think you know. Not hard to do, since EVs are so combustible anyway.
The only personal transport they want you to really own ,is a standard push bike or one with electric pedal assist . Otherwise they want you to use electric taxi services or electric powered public transport ,like trains , buses ferries & eventual electric powered airliners . The only other method of getting around will be walking or roller skates ,& even that will no doubt be limited or some fee required for the privilege .
The problem with ICE is there's no problem with ICE, ICE is affordable and practical to run, EVs are to expensive for peasants to own, and turn off the grid, you stop people moving.
There is NO CLIMATE CRISIS PROBLEM,,THERE IS NO PROBLEM IF YOUR CAR PASSES THE GOVs EMISSION STANDARDS AT MOT TIME THE ONLY REAL PROBLEM WE HAVE IS THIS BRAINWASHED GOV,AND THE TOTALLY STUPID NET ZERO.
I don't know if all but certainly some of these cars have a button/switch that can be used to unlock the doors and no, I don't support the whole 'electric' car thing.
Small volume manufacturers will, larger ones will keep trying until they start losing money and have angry shareholders, governments that are middle to far left need to be a thing of the pass, this climate change BS is just a smoke screen that allows poor governments to do nothing.
Having recently watched the TV programme Mr bates v the post office and the way the powers that be operate its very unnerving to say the least how they can force situations on every day people, this electric vehicle con is no different in my opinion, we are heading for a lot of unrest in this county its not going to be good but people will have to stand up for justice.
Yes, judging by that Luton airport fire....1500 cars burnt out by ONE Hybrid. I suppose I can understand the Insurance companies' concerns. = Of course, the whole EV thing is an ecological disaster, when one considers that all the minerals required to make ONE EV battery, requires 250 tons + of earth-digging by diesel machines that require 1000 litres of Diesel every 12 hours. Nevemind the fact that the power-grid can't support too many EVs anyway. Lunatics running the asylum.....ho-hum.
It s terrible they are £37 a year less expensive.! That and all of the savings in fuel costs - it is awful! I hate not paying for timing belt changes, oil changes, disk pads.
A mechanic friend of mine witnessed a Tesla going through a deep puddle, the whole thing was sparking, imagine what that would do if a person, or a horse with metal shoes happened to be there.....
Don't you recall the chap who wrote about bullshit jobs? It's baked in obsolescence - they spin us stories of green policies whilst it's all part of the toxic new world order/Agenda 21/2030 plan. They plan on eliminating 95% of the population. Scoff, if you like, that's what they're doing.

It’s simple. Manufacturers will miss the target. They will push the fines onto ice vehicle cost, closing the gap between EV and ICE and eventually making ice more expensive, so forcing you to go EV or go without. That’s the plan imo…
Spot on! ... and then increase MOT / service costs / harsh tests and reduce availability of spare parts to "nudge" those with used ICE vehicles. Limit fuel supplies and they have there total control wet dream ....
There already has been a surcharge added to ICE vehicles. Dacia Sandero pre July 2023 £7995 OTR, Post July £13995 OTR. Then the Dacia Spring at £23,000 does not look so expensive. Bearing in mind though Dacia Spring is sold as Renault KZE, and Tata Nexon, both full EV's and RHD, They Cost £6045 OTR - just not in UK. China and India respectively, so no rip off here.
ICE vehicle has 4,000 moving parts an EV has 40 Within a couple of years ICE cars will get crushed on price due to economies of scale There's nothing to them there a computer and battery on wheels

I spend the winter living in the Philippines, I can tell you that whatever we do in the UK won't make diddly squat bit of difference to global emissions!
If it wasn't for tax incentives ,goverent propaganda ,forcing motor manufacturers to make them or be fined and fleet buys ,nobody would buy these junk heaps.
It's more cost effective to lease an EV than buy a new ICE vehicle when mine dies. It depends on personal circumstances but if it's like that now and we've not even started serious roll out then....
With only four charging points in the whole of the Scottish Highlands, there will be a fight on if either the UK or Scottish govt try to get rid of petrol/diesel cars. 130 miles to the nearest decent hospital won't go down well with electric ambulances and what if there are a few fires in quick succession....can't see the fire brigade getting to the fires due to the tenders being on charge. The coppers will be a laughing stock when they don't turn up due to a flat battery!
@@caterthun4853 There are quite a few, actually. Not many chargers though. And nobody has yet told me how I'm supposed to charge an EV when I live in a flat and only have on-street parking.
As usual, this has not been politically thought through, the same as migration. The surge in travel charges and road restrictions, and this mad drive to zero emissions, is causing and will continue to cause chaos, with affordability, sustained employment, and with the ever-increasing numbers of migrants with their attitudes, life will become extremely difficult. All this from totally unqualified, self-opinionated MPs, I could rant on more, but what would be the point.
You can see how they’ll price us out of ICE vehicles already with emission zones and rocketing insurance. They have a cheek to label the manufacture and sales of EVs as non emission. What about the carbon used to make the things in the first place. Bit of a con there.
The emission zones are a failure. People are either destroying the equipment (and since Khunt is using masked thugs to protect them, we may soon see… disappearances) or just not paying. And whilst the money won’t give anytime soon, the people’s patience will.
The manufacturers will have to artificially raise the price of ICE cars, to subsidise the EVs. The government will then claim that the public chose EVs. In reality the pubic will buy less of either, as the government wants. The manufacturers have only themselves to blame, they should have nipped this in the bud. That said, the major shareholders may have designed all this, Car sales is of less importance than influence, especially where government spending, and government directed consumer spending is concerned.
also imagine how many jobs will be lost. No garages to service cars, it will be all done through dealerships. All the 3rd party companies that make spares etc.

@@caterthun4853 it's got nothing to do with the climate, it's because the government is allowing large construction companies to build on flood planes, in the last couple of months there have been lots of floods in Norfolk but according to the environment agency Norfolk has just had two of the driest years on record and several parts of the county are still in drought.
Currently the global sales of EV's are only seeing the likes of lease companies buy them because of the incentives. The number of private buyers are pretty much net zero. Remember this is globally and in other parts of the globe the government's are also pushing the same agenda from America to Australia. They are also trying to compete with China who are apparently beating them for the amount of EV cars sold. China's EV sales are pretty much sold imaginary people sit in a field for a few years and then get taken to the scrap yard. Luckily most sane people can see what they are doing hence why no one is buying them privately. The only way they can get people to buy one is bribe them with little incentives of money. After watching Geoff Buys Cars and the MacMaster's videos you can see that even after pretty much 10 years of these EV's being launched to the world that the infrastructure is poor and now I am seeing videos where cars are already due a battery swap ironically after the warranty period runs out. Its one big scam.
@melvinplant8637 I have seen many videos from China showing these. Some are registered from the factory to pretend buyers to make it look like China are selling loads of EV's, when in reality they aren't.
Those bloody politicians need to lead by example and get rid of their diesel 4x4s and have EV only...no hybrids..just EV...and NO travel allowances or any special subs for repairs, new batteries or even roadside assistance. They pay the lot and see how they get on. The idiots bringing these rules in are going to close down manufacturing of vehicles altogether and drive us all...into the Stone Age. Perhaps we should get camels. Fitting indeed seeing where this country is going.
@@SlowhandGreg ICE vehicles do not have a limited lifespan. EVs, on the other hand, have two, maybe three, years of life in them before they need a very costly battery replacement. Something that is unlikely to change before EVs are ditched as the ICE replacement. EVs are not the future, and never will be.
@@themightyalpaca313 most modern batteries will be 80% effective after 400,000 miles Most ice vehicles start needing major maintenance past 50,000 40 moving parts v 4,000

Put them on NOTICE. u tell them what u plan to do and that if they dont reply within 28 days then they agree. its call acquiescence. ur playing them at their game. with all due respect i dont know how awake you are but what they tell u is all lies. u will get your own travel bonds and notify dvla what u plan to do. put it like this. tax is illegal but if u register a company then u agree to pay tax. consent. if u register to get a license then u consent to live by the legislation that they put on u. they can only govern through consent. my birth certificate has been rebutted and notices hve been sent to appropriate parties. they know its all a scam and ul never get a reply but uv got a tasset agreement when they dont reply and they never do. im really quite new to this but the guty who did my notices - check him out. gumshoe sleuth on here or unchainedremedy is his website. he drives around with no insurance but travel bonds and ye he will get pulled if hes in a new car and he will get taken to station but when he explains hes the sovereign man NOT A LEGAL FICTION ie birth certificate they release him every time. if ppl knew what we know the house of cards would fall straight down. the diesel engine was created to run on veg oil but they killed rudolph diesel and suppressed the info to make money off us
The way around the percentage will be to reduce the number of ice cars made to match the requirement of EVs which will mean reducing production considerably, which in turn means closing factories, shedding jobs, and eventually closure, that will have a knock on effect on parts suppliers and then cars and parts will only be imported making everything scarce and expensive and more pollution.
once 20% or so of the current driving population stop driving, the economy will tank as all the associated businesses relating to car repair,ins,fuel,- many will be unable to get to work and will go on the dole. Muggings will rise more vulnerable people walking or cycling, illnesses will rise more people exposed to the extremes of the elements and herded together on public transport. crime will rise once things start to fail. once you try to manipulate the public there is a snap point beyond which politician become totally powerless. They only rule with consent.
How people couldnt see this behemoth coming is just moronic. They are trying to bring in legislation about 3rd party parts on car making the MOT void. IE if you have a part on your car from another source rather than the manufacturer of said car then it will be classed as illegal and therefore thecar will not pass the MOT.
I was in exactly the same boat you described in November last year. My Vauxhall Vivaro was ending its serviceable life and the replacement cost has almost doubled. The fares obtainable made it uneconomically viable to replace. The vehicle was retired and I am left renting a vehicle off a taxi company earning a fraction of what I was. To make things worse the company was merged on the 2nd and the rental vehicles are to be discontinued. This leaves me out of work and I have a series of interviews lined up next week. 15 years in the taxi industry ended mainly by environmental measures. All in an area that has a serious shortage of taxi drivers with wait times regularly in excess of 2 hours. All part of the plan I feel.
A mate of mine in Grimsby found himself in the same position last year, he delivers car spares now, another point regarding taxi drivers is that only the English ones need a dbs check?
Most of the major manufacturers are dropping production which is great news as they aren't selling, too expensive to insure and repair, plus not enough charge points. It is all a con to take away our ability to travel. They want you to stay in your 15 min city
So bang goes the government cars then .let then do it 1st than maybe i gey a horse and cart. As most people can't afford ev and the insurance..so the government does not want normal people to have cars .only the rich people 😮
ICE Engine technology continues to improve but the harsh reality is that when you consider the entire lifecycle of car from mining of raw materials, use , fuel and maintenance, right through to disposal at end of life, ICE cars are already much greener than any electric vehicle.
My 1st car was an old Mini. It ran on water (steam injection) and I got 74 mpg from that. The tech was very simply but a major oil company secured the patent/copyright and locked it away in the 70’s. If it worked then for petrol cars then why not now?
I recall in many years ago s business man somewhere in the West Midlands was on news with a Peugeot diesel car which had been converted to part steam or water injection giving many extra MPG. I seen to recall he had his business torched or something similar. He and his business were never heard of in public again.
A friend (John) drove his Hyundai Getz from Norfolk to Birmingham to have this device fitted. It was a bolt-on hydrogen fuel cell that separated the hydrogen and then mixed it into the petrol feed. This resulted in his car doubling its mpg. I think this must have been around 2017/18. One evening John gave me a lift. We drove up the A140 using just petrol. We then joined the A47 and as we drove up the slip road he flicked a switch on his dash. The car drew back, spluttered a bit, and then returned to a nice smooth acceleration. As well as the new switch there was also a digital display showing the power and mpg. It went from 45mpg to around 90. Safe to say I was very impressed, it seemed to work, I can't remember how much John paid but it sounds like he visited the man you've mentioned above@@Mig29now
There's so much info on the web about hydrogen taken from water. It can be used for heating and engines. Government's don't want hydrogen cars on the road, there's too much invested in oil.
Mass civil disobedience is what is required in this country right now to show our so called representatives in parliament that we, the silent majority, mean business. No threats or violence is needed just mass disobedience of all these stupid rules that are being forced upon us. Can you imagine the chaos in the courts if every driver in Wales ignored the nonsensical 20mph speed limits in that country and then failed to pay the fines. The court system would collapse. Action by the general public is desperately needed, trouble is most of the population are apathetic so this will just carry on and carry on.
If truly about climate then we should have JP Morgan & Co pay for it as he stopped the cars running on Ethanol & Hydrogen etc back in the 1920s hence prohabition, why should we suffer for their greed as if werent greedy we would all being using not EVs but cars running on fuels not using petroleum for last 100yrs!
Hi Andy; I'll try not to take up too much space but here goes:- EVs are great! So long as they can be home-charged, have a range of 150 miles maximum, are compact and cost no more than £30,000. For longer, out of town journeys, particularly under load, they are simply not fit for purpose! A bald statement you might think; but I have personally done the tests to prove the point. Here are the details:- Journey from York Minster to Truro Cathedral (426·7miles). Each run commenced at midnight on Monday and Thursday over 2 consecutive weeks. (The timing to avoid fatigue and to adhere strictly to a planned route). 1. Driven alone in my own 2006 Lexus GS300 SE-L. Starting with a full tank of Premium petrol; the journey took 7 hrs and 36 minutes including one 'comfort' stop. Cost = £81:76p. 2. Driving alone in a 2023 Kia 6 EV. Starting with 100% charge. Journey time was 9 hrs and 23 minutes; including 1 charging/comfort stop. Cost = £63:45p. 3. Driving my Lexus with 3 passengers and a total 60kg of luggage. Journey time was 7 hrs and 34 minutes including one fuel/comfort stop. Cost = £86:98p. 4. Driving the Kia 6 with 3 passengers and 60kg of luggage. Journey time was 2 days 5 hrs and 46 minutes including 5 charging stops, one of which required a 7 hour charge and overnight stay. Cost = £423:98p! The problem was that as soon as the EV took on a load equivalent to that of a family holiday, its range plummeted from 321 miles down to 96 miles; thus requiring multiple charging stops, one of which was very slow. Hence the overnight stay. The unladen EV run eas cheaper but took nearly 2 hrs longer. This raises the question: how much is a person's time worth? Conclusion; EVs are great in town, only if they can be home-charged and be cheap to buy. Out of town, EVs are useless. They are not the future. UPDATE:- I have since repeated the above test using 2 hybrid cars. A plug-in Peugeot and a self-charging Toyota C-HR. The Toyota out performed all the other cars tested by a marked margin, being better on fuel and time. This caused me to purchase a 2010 Lexus RX400h which has again outperformed everything! The car is ULEZ & LEZ compliant everywhere too, and cost less than £10,000! I rest my case...
Less than 50% of residences have offroad parking, so they will be effectively excluded from driving, unless rapid charging stations are as ubiquitous as petrol stations.
Frankly, I think it's ridiculous! I have a Toyota Hilux with a 2.5l diesel engine that I use for my salvaging work and it's been a tough, really dependable workhorse. I shudder to think what would happen if we were pushed even further into giving up our vehicles in favour of EVs! The thing is, if it's all about reducing carbon emissions then petrol and diesel vehicles can be made to run on carbon-neutral fuels. The technology exists - it has done so for decades - and yet it hasn't been implemented simply because, I reckon, that the government and the oil companies have been in each others pockets for so long, and now they are being coerced into these actions by the likes of the WEF. Here's hoping the backlash is going to be on the scale of what I have seen in the recent news about the Post Office because this is anti-democratic.
You are right. I am a cab driver like u .my Renault traffic is in is last y ear & the cost of replacement could put me out out of work. Annoyingly my Renault is in sutch good condition it could go another 15yrs.

I phoned my son the other day and said, how is your wife's new electric car. He replied what the piece of sh#t. They have had nothing but trouble with it.
I think everyone should just tell this government to "FOXTROT OSCAR"...
And vote more of the same.
That's all that needs to happen.......
People need to realise that the alternative is much worse on everything.
Damn straight lol!
couldn't agree more.
There are so many things wrong with the claim that EVs are environmentally friendly. But one I hadn't considered yet is the environmental cost of scrapping perfectly serviceable ICE cars. The whole EV agenda would actually wreck the environment.
The REAL answer, is not the motorist but the petrol/fossil fuel industry. They are the ones that buy up all the inventions that would stop the use of oil.
Well said, I think the same. and when a EV decides to switch on full battery crematorium mode, the pollution is off the scale.
Not to mention the child labour involved in the producers of EV's..
@RichieReportsUK You are so right, I have a nice diesel car that is euro6 emission standards, and is 10 years old. I normally change my cars after 10 years, but this one is so good I'm going to keep it for a few more years.
My low annual mileage makes it far more cost effective to keep hold of my 52 year old Classic.
What more needs to be said?
BUT.........electric cars ARE NOT zero emissions!
No one's listening, they've got an agenda and the motorist was not consulted.
Yep, you're just exporting your emissions to the power station instead. It's all about virtue signalling.
Soo right
during manufacture of course not but they dont pump out any carcinogenic fumes like diesel or petrol does
@@dps615 But the power plant does.
Can you see car manufacturers surviving on the sales of Electric vehicles.
Currently the sales are very low and unlikely to ever reach the volume of cars sold say ladt year.
So the manufacturers face a greatly decreasing market because people dont want them, insurance companies dont really want them and they are unaffordable both to purchase and run
Don’t forget insurance company’s, many will fold if this bs happens. Which I don’t think it will, ww3 more likely to happen in my opinion.
Yeah I've seen loads of car park like places full of them they can't get rid of them ❤x
You might be told in comments by a EVangelist that sales are up on last year and China buy loads of EV's. Our EV sales market and most other parts of the globe have been mostly through lease hire firms who supply businesses and corporations with EV's to meet net zero targets, private buyers virtually non existent. The China large boom in EV sales is due to the car manufacturers and government registering unsold cars that are all stored in fields and then quietly taken away to be scrapped over the years. The Chinese have now started bringing them to this country and I wouldn't trust one. Seen enough facts on how safe a BYD car is to know its not to be approached at all as they are too hot to handle 🔥🔥🔥🔥
They will go bankrupt or move the vast majority of their manufacturing to China or other low cost countries like Mexico or Africa or other parts of Asia. The European car industry as far as manufacturing in Europe is doomed and it will happen very rapidly. Chinese ev manufacturers will dominate due to their price advantage, evs being so much more expensive than ice vehicles. The US vehicle manufacturers will also have to move production out of the US. Just like Tesla has.
1 out of every 41 cars in the uk is ev, pretty crap really, though the brainwashed battery boys think its a success! How deluded can you get? 😂
The public should demand that all people connected to these decisions have their finances and affairs thoroughly checked.

VAG are losing money hand over fist, Ford and GM have cut way back on EV production, and Chinese EVs are going off like bombs.
Almost everywhere else on the planet is using ICE. If the UK/Europe is forced to go electric or public transport, the country will come to a literal stop, because anyone who has to commute will be unable to. Businesses will shut overnight, and people will end up fighting for food because we don't grow half of what we need, and there will be no-one to drive delivery vehicles as they will all be stuck at home. I'm not yet sure what these clown pulling the strings are up to, but they will need to watch their backs before long.

@@mikemyers7721WILL THEY BE FEEDING US SOYLENT GREEN ,IE,PROCESSED DEAD BODIES LIKE IN THE FIM.SAME NAME.
Best thing to happen would be everyone to refuse to buy an EV and get a new diesel/petrol vehicle instead not even a hybrid. I see EVs can be had at 0% finance nowadays, manufacturers only do this if they can't sell cars, either a certain model or range. Proves the point that they are stuck with EV's they can't sell. Car Finance companies are running scared because they are going to take a big hit on ex finance cars going to auction. Who wants a used EV at any price a 3yr old. And needing a replacement battery .
AND SOME INSURANCE COMPANYS WONT EVEN INSURE THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO MUCH OF A FIRE RISK
"Wrong" my car a 2012 electric car I'm still on the same batteries 55000 miles later. And I have lost 4% battery life but most electric cars have a 8 year warranty on batteries. It's also saved me £26,551.25 over 12 yrs or £2212.60 PA when I bought the car cost £33,750 (2012) today the car now worth £8,300 but when electric cars came on the market it was a nightmare to charge due to limited charges plus for a while charging was free, but as technology advances more and more vehicle charging points are popping up but the problem are different connecting, its a bit like video VHS or beta a victim of its own success this were electric vehicles are heading due to their high cost and lack of investment,if you look at the birth of the motor car 1908
The Model T was introduced to the world in 1908. Henry Ford wanted the Model T to be affordable, simple to operate, and durable. The vehicle was one of the first mass production vehicles, allowing Ford to achieve his aim of manufacturing the universal car which petrol and diesel have been around for such a long time, until governments except that global warming here to stay,people need transportation which has clearly shown they failed to invest in, as we all know trains, buses overcrowding,cut backs and ULEZ, all sorts of excuses, until a new henry ford or a vehicles manufacturer comes up with a mass EV for the mass be affordable, simple to operate, and durable.It will be another victim of it success like the video player, as a electric car owner i must say Petrol and diesel vehicles are here to stay. 👍👍👍
China has FIELDS of unused EVs the west no doubt will follow. Lol
Better yet stick with an older car and just don't buy new, as long as you have the skills to maintain it you will never be off the road.

Otherwise they want you to use electric taxi services or electric powered public transport ,like trains , buses ferries & eventual electric powered airliners .

There is no problem with ICE.
The problem with ICE is there's no problem with ICE, ICE is affordable and practical to run, EVs are to expensive for peasants to own, and turn off the grid, you stop people moving.

So exactly how many electric tanks does the British army currently have?
It’s simple. Manufacturers will miss the target. They will push the fines onto ice vehicle cost, closing the gap between EV and ICE and eventually making ice more expensive, so forcing you to go EV or go without. That’s the plan imo…
Spot on! ... and then increase MOT / service costs / harsh tests and reduce availability of spare parts to "nudge" those with used ICE vehicles. Limit fuel supplies and they have there total control wet dream ....
There already has been a surcharge added to ICE vehicles. Dacia Sandero pre July 2023 £7995 OTR, Post July £13995 OTR. Then the Dacia Spring at £23,000 does not look so expensive.

As usual, this has not been politically thought through, the same as migration.

All this from totally unqualified, self-opinionated MPs, I could rant on more, but what would be the point.

You can see how they’ll price us out of ICE vehicles already with emission zones and rocketing insurance.
They have a cheek to label the manufacture and sales of EVs as non emission. What about the carbon used to make the things in the first place. Bit of a con there.
The emission zones are a failure. People are either destroying the equipment (and since Khunt is using masked thugs to protect them, we may soon see… disappearances) or just not paying. And whilst the money won’t give anytime soon, the people’s patience will.
The manufacturers will have to artificially raise the price of ICE cars, to subsidise the EVs. The government will then claim that the public chose EVs. In reality the pubic will buy less of either, as the government wants. The manufacturers have only themselves to blame, they should have nipped this in the bud.

Currently the global sales of EV's are only seeing the likes of lease companies buy them because of the incentives. The number of private buyers are pretty much net zero.
Remember this is globally and in other parts of the globe the government's are also pushing the same agenda from America to Australia.
They are also trying to compete with China who are apparently beating them for the amount of EV cars sold. China's EV sales are pretty much sold imaginary people sit in a field for a few years and then get taken to the scrap yard.
Luckily most sane people can see what they are doing hence why no one is buying them privately. The only way they can get people to buy one is bribe them with little incentives of money.
After watching Geoff Buys Cars and the MacMaster's videos you can see that even after pretty much 10 years of these EV's being launched to the world that the infrastructure is poor and now I am seeing videos where cars are already due a battery swap ironically after the warranty period runs out. Its one big scam.

The way around the percentage will be to reduce the number of ice cars made to match the requirement of EVs which will mean reducing production considerably, which in turn means closing factories, shedding jobs, and eventually closure, that will have a knock on effect on parts suppliers and then cars and parts will only be imported making everything scarce and expensive and more pollution.

I was in exactly the same boat you described in November last year. My Vauxhall Vivaro was ending its serviceable life and the replacement cost has almost doubled. The fares obtainable made it uneconomically viable to replace. The vehicle was retired and I am left renting a vehicle off a taxi company earning a fraction of what I was. To make things worse the company was merged on the 2nd and the rental vehicles are to be discontinued. This leaves me out of work and I have a series of interviews lined up next week. 15 years in the taxi industry ended mainly by environmental measures. All in an area that has a serious shortage of taxi drivers with wait times regularly in excess of 2 hours. All part of the plan I feel.
A mate of mine in Grimsby found himself in the same position last year, he delivers car spares now, another point regarding taxi drivers is that only the English ones need a dbs check?
Oh really? Well that's interesting @@Norfolkbiker50
When the word "mandate" shows up, it's a huge red flag. You should just say no and not comply or give in.
Most of the major manufacturers are dropping production which is great news as they aren't selling, too expensive to insure and repair, plus not enough charge points. It is all a con to take away our ability to travel. They want you to stay in your 15 min city
So bang goes the government cars then .let then do it 1st than maybe i gey a horse and cart. As most people can't afford ev and the insurance..so the government does not want normal people to have cars .only the rich people 😮
ICE Engine technology continues to improve but the harsh reality is that when you consider the entire lifecycle of car from mining of raw materials, use , fuel and maintenance, right through to disposal at end of life, ICE cars are already much greener than any electric vehicle.
My 1st car was an old Mini. It ran on water (steam injection) and I got 74 mpg from that. The tech was very simply but a major oil company secured the patent/copyright and locked it away in the 70’s. If it worked then for petrol cars then why not now?
On water ??
I recall in many years ago s business man somewhere in the West Midlands was on news with a Peugeot diesel car which had been converted to part steam or water injection giving many extra MPG. I seen to recall he had his business torched or something similar. He and his business were never heard of in public again.
A friend (John) drove his Hyundai Getz from Norfolk to Birmingham to have this device fitted. It was a bolt-on hydrogen fuel cell that separated the hydrogen and then mixed it into the petrol feed. This resulted in his car doubling its mpg. I think this must have been around 2017/18. One evening John gave me a lift. We drove up the A140 using just petrol. We then joined the A47 and as we drove up the slip road he flicked a switch on his dash. The car drew back, spluttered a bit, and then returned to a nice smooth acceleration. As well as the new switch there was also a digital display showing the power and mpg. It went from 45mpg to around 90. Safe to say I was very impressed, it seemed to work, I can't remember how much John paid but it sounds like he visited the man you've mentioned above@@Mig29now
The Inventor died from a hit too.
There's so much info on the web about hydrogen taken from water. It can be used for heating and engines. Government's don't want hydrogen cars on the road, there's too much invested in oil.
Only if we let them.
Question does that include the PMs shinny bullet proof car if not screw them. Them first if after three years there still using them then still NO.
New taxi service by 2030 will be a rickshaw 🛺 I’m in training 🏃, il have the fastest rickshaw in my city 😊
So glad there’s someone else out there just like me, cheers 😂
IF YOU PUT GRAPHITE GREASE ON THE AXLES IT MAY GO EVEN FASTER
@@melvinplant8637 🤣🤣🤣👍🏻
how the hell are business going to operate.
this week alone i have travelled over 800 miles to clients.
We cant even heat our homes let alone keep topping up explosive ready cars.
If you want to take a successful industry and run it in to the ground just let politicians get involved with it.
Well the f@#kers have to justify their existence somehow......
Mass civil disobedience is what is required in this country right now to show our so called representatives in parliament that we, the silent majority, mean business. No threats or violence is needed just mass disobedience of all these stupid rules that are being forced upon us.
Can you imagine the chaos in the courts if every driver in Wales ignored the nonsensical 20mph speed limits in that country and then failed to pay the fines. The court system would collapse. Action by the general public is desperately needed, trouble is most of the population are apathetic so this will just carry on and carry on.
If truly about climate then we should have JP Morgan & Co pay for it as he stopped the cars running on Ethanol & Hydrogen etc back in the 1920s hence prohabition, why should we suffer for their greed as if werent greedy we would all being using not EVs but cars running on fuels not using petroleum for last 100yrs!
Thank you again Andy for this latest information. God bless and much ❤ .
Hi Andy; I'll try not to take up too much space but here goes:-
EVs are great! So long as they can be home-charged, have a range of 150 miles maximum, are compact and cost no more than £30,000.
For longer, out of town journeys, particularly under load, they are simply not fit for purpose!
A bald statement you might think; but I have personally done the tests to prove the point. Here are the details:-
Journey from York Minster to Truro Cathedral (426·7miles). Each run commenced at midnight on Monday and Thursday over 2 consecutive weeks. (The timing to avoid fatigue and to adhere strictly to a planned route).
1. Driven alone in my own 2006 Lexus GS300 SE-L. Starting with a full tank of Premium petrol; the journey took 7 hrs and 36 minutes including one 'comfort' stop. Cost = £81:76p.
2. Driving alone in a 2023 Kia 6 EV. Starting with 100% charge. Journey time was 9 hrs and 23 minutes; including 1 charging/comfort stop. Cost = £63:45p.
3. Driving my Lexus with 3 passengers and a total 60kg of luggage. Journey time was 7 hrs and 34 minutes including one fuel/comfort stop. Cost = £86:98p.
4. Driving the Kia 6 with 3 passengers and 60kg of luggage. Journey time was 2 days 5 hrs and 46 minutes including 5 charging stops, one of which required a 7 hour charge and overnight stay. Cost = £423:98p!
The problem was that as soon as the EV took on a load equivalent to that of a family holiday, its range plummeted from 321 miles down to 96 miles; thus requiring multiple charging stops, one of which was very slow. Hence the overnight stay. The unladen EV run eas cheaper but took nearly 2 hrs longer. This raises the question: how much is a person's time worth?
Conclusion; EVs are great in town, only if they can be home-charged and be cheap to buy. Out of town, EVs are useless. They are not the future.
UPDATE:-
I have since repeated the above test using 2 hybrid cars. A plug-in Peugeot and a self-charging Toyota C-HR. The Toyota out performed all the other cars tested by a marked margin, being better on fuel and time. This caused me to purchase a 2010 Lexus RX400h which has again outperformed everything! The car is ULEZ & LEZ compliant everywhere too, and cost less than £10,000!
I rest my case...
£ wasted Insurance sky high, and in 8 years a new battery at £50,000?
Now think about the distances we drive here in Australia, not fit for purpose at all
The cost of that journey in my 2001 golf tdi is less than 50 quid, just passed mot and currently showing 390,000 miles!
Less than 50% of residences have offroad parking, so they will be effectively excluded from driving, unless rapid charging stations are as ubiquitous as petrol stations.
Never beat a diesel
Mazda diesels are awful, the 2.2 is a master of disaster.
The refurbishment and restoration of ICE vehicles will be big business.
Synthetic fuels i run my vintage car on synthetic fuel
Frankly, I think it's ridiculous! I have a Toyota Hilux with a 2.5l diesel engine that I use for my salvaging work and it's been a tough, really dependable workhorse. I shudder to think what would happen if we were pushed even further into giving up our vehicles in favour of EVs!
The thing is, if it's all about reducing carbon emissions then petrol and diesel vehicles can be made to run on carbon-neutral fuels. The technology exists - it has done so for decades - and yet it hasn't been implemented simply because, I reckon, that the government and the oil companies have been in each others pockets for so long, and now they are being coerced into these actions by the likes of the WEF. Here's hoping the backlash is going to be on the scale of what I have seen in the recent news about the Post Office because this is anti-democratic.
Funny how the Luton Airport fire car park has been kept quiet
I thought all had gone quiet on the electric car front and that the deadline for ‘scrapping’ ice cars had been extended indefinitely? 🤔
The Rubble Brothers will be fine then. Except going uphill
Charging stations seem to powered by diesel!
If I ran a garage it would be my time to retire
Plenty of oil and petrol, does not need a solution, follow the money...
Flinstone cars incoming
The quota system has worked great in China firstly with bike rentals and now with evs piled in fields waiting fir disposal
all designed to limit who is allowed to travel...
You are right. I am a cab driver like u .my Renault traffic is in is last y ear & the cost of replacement could put me out out of work.
Annoyingly my Renault is in sutch good condition it could go another 15yrs.
It just put the price of second hand cars sales go up for petrol and diesel cars
Hunger games seems to be thier blueprint
Within 7 years insurance companies will not allow you to insure an ICE car, that's the way they'll get you off the roads.
