I just don't see how EVs are mire eco friendly when the process to make and repair them are worse for the environment in the long run. How can you beat the boxer engine rumble? How can you beat putting a LS 7 into nearly anything? How can you beat the easy maintenance of an old vehicle? Just doesn't make any sense...
Reluctance motors. Crdms use rotating mag fields to move them. Control Rod Drive Mechanisms. Use also damper windings to oppose help mag field smooth motion out hence named Step Motors. We used Scr's biggies. Turn on then turn off. Used collapse of field to charge next inline saving power. Fascinating hitech on nuke plant could be used in cars. Rotating magnets on wheels used as dynamic braking and recharging batteries too.
The politicians who drafted these new regulations should have all entire fleet of gas guzzling GMC Yukons, Suburbans, and private jets taken away. Let them take the bus or an Uber if they want to go somewhere.
Look guys. They are not going to outlaw gasoline cars. They will most likely mandate that car manufacturers start producing more or just electric cars. But they are not going to stop us from being able to drive gasoline cars. Some people can't afford to go electric. And us motorheads have to be able to drive our project cars lol. Hell, our new president owns (and drives) a classic Corvette. Gas prices might skyrocket because there will be less demand for iit.But seriously guy, stop overthinking this lol
Supply and demand would equal gas prices going down after a while, due to LESS demand. Prices going up due to less demand makes no sense. When more people want something, the price goes up...when interested lessens, prices go down.

Right. Gasoline and diesel can be relatively easily made at home. With a certain knowledge. I like EV's because they seem fun (and simple), but not crazy about them from an emissions standpoint. They're cool for their delivery of power. Too bad the SJW nutcases have ruined the image of what was kinda neat.
@@manoftruth0935 I just don't feel comfortable when EV's are going into a lot vehicles, especially Large Trucks and Vans!, Small Cars and Midsize such as Tesla I'm fine with!
@@gypsylips1950 they had mass extinction before humans. We're just outputting more c02 than the world can process by itself. Over population, concrete production, growing rice and the c02 emitted from the data centres that they use for the Internet all put out mass amounts of c02. I work as a refrigeration engineer. I can fix ONE refrigerant leak and that saves the c02 that my car would output for the next 20 years. I also work on c02 refrigerant systems. They leak constantly, and the c02 is made fresh not reclaimed from the atmosphere, to work on it safely you have to vent the gas also. And, you'll love this, I can blow it off with no consequences at all. But, its the 5k miles I do a year in my 20 year old Toyota that will keep going another 20 years that is killing the planet. While cars are being manufactured that last a few years at best, and force people to constantly replace their cars
Scotty doesn’t mention some rather important aspects of electric cars, 1st the range sucks doesn’t charging isn’t done in a flash. 2nd Scotty doesn’t touch on just where the lithium comes from, HINT: a country NOT very friendly to the US, 3rd. Electric cars are of the great delusion, to charge any electric vehicle you have to get the electricity from some were, yes that coal, gas or nuclear power plant then through power lines to your house then you plug it in, then pay your electric bill. So as all those electric car users load the electric grid even more than it is now. so when they tell you we are cutting pollution by eliminating gas cars they don’t tell you that those polluting power plants will be working overtime or keep up with the demand. And of course your utility will then tell you, oh we need a rate increased upgrade our equipment for the increased demand, it won’t end there, they will then tell you the grid is outdated (it is already) and needs to be rebuilt. Figured it out yet ? Probably not … …
Not only that people who houses have options for solar panels (which is awesome AND expensive) that way they don't pay too much for electricity from the city. People who live in apartments won't have that choice.....Like ever. And not to mention hybrids vehicles are used and will have a lot of miles on them.....
You will not see 30 year old electric cars because battery replacement exceeds the cars value. I hope I can still run my diesel for a while, powered by locally sourced homemade fuel.
Oh those pesky details all the time! All those negative vibes! What's with that? Do have to always bring up all the negatives? Can't we all just love each other!?
@@Wahinies Another thing about EV’s is that manufactures shove technology into it. I’m fine with a screen but if it’s an electrical problem your basically screwed. You can’t DIY fix stuff anymore
Qe live in a age of braindead drones who believe their slave owners POLITICIANS and BANKERS, and feelings override logic and critical thinking. People go about their day pretending to be virtuous and tell climate denier racists with their cellphones made by sweatshops and polluting with all the chemicals and garbage produced to that has little to no environmental protection. I've given up on people unless you are 1 on 1 willing to discuss things civilly.
People forced no smoking in buildings and harsher DUI laws to save everyone’s lives. Global warming causes a danger to everything on this planet... so your logic is that we should still smoke in buildings and DUI shouldn’t be a crime.
I personally drive a one ton diesel truck. Although honestly I would be perfectly fine paying a higher fuel and registration tax; because climate change is very real, and it pushes an undue cost onto other people. And it's only just that the owners of these vehicles should pay the true cost of owning these vehicles.
Scotty's business model is generating clicks, for advertising dollars. That's how he's made his millions, as an entertaining and informative mechanic. He's good, if outlandish about it. Again, to be clear about it. His business model is TH-cam's.
An EV is only as “green” as the energy used to generate the electricity to charge it. If you live where the power is generated from coal or gas then your EV is ultimately still powered by fossil fuels. Gasoline is 40 times more energy dense than the best lithium ion batteries.
burning fuel in a power plant to heat steam to be converted to electricity, to eventually be used in an electric motor is still way more efficient overall than burning gas to move pistons - 60% of that is lost as heat. also, fossil fuel use to make electricity is dwindling. power from coal plants has halved in the past decade. natural gas will be next as solar and wind are the cheapest forms of electricity now.
The only problem for EV is its range, once they can deliver 600 KM - 800 KM per charge then it's game over for family commuting car gasoline engine. Even if EV need to be changed for 1 hour, it doesn't matter anymore because for 6 hour driving on the road eventually you need to take a break like eating, and while you eat you can charge your EV to full.
@@alpinthor Not to mention EVs have a much higher risk for fire while diesel has the lowest risk . Electrical fire caused by batteries that shorts out continuously makes it more dangerous.
@@maples328 better hang out with the Amish. There won't be enough electricity for your car and your house, there will be for J F'n Kerrry and the like and their private jets, yaughts and vehicles and but the rest of us pleebs? Will be back to horse and carriage, until PETA gets those outlaws those too.
@@williamcrane8236 don’t worry, they’ll keep us in electricity ⚡️ because 1) they have to tell us everyday how great they are on tv & 2) they want you in a vehicle they can shut down or control at anytime.
That'll work really well for all those city folks. Now, how about us in the plains? What's my uncle supposed to do about harvest? He's still running a 47 combine. Darn tractor is 10 years younger.
They're making exceptions. At least in Europe, Big trucks and farming vehicles and / or transportations are either getting a further delay or an exemption.
What happens when you live in hurricane/ storm prone areas (like the east coast) when power is out for days, weeks or months? With gas a gas station can run on a generator. Fuel can be stored in tanks. Emergency gas tankers can pump fuel right from a truck.
The elephant in the room about EVs is, where's all that "clean and cheap" charging power going to come from? In many areas, the grid is already at its maximum. Ever heard of California brown-outs during the summer time? And power won't be "clean and cheap" even if you can get it.
No worries. Anyone can make electricity, but it's a little difficult making gasoline or diesel. Also, grids actually are under-burdened in evening hours, and the electric companies will actually benefit from being able to offer cheaper electric rates for night time charging. The majority of charging will start when people return home from work, so they will heavily lean towards evening charge hours.
Jess Cretney, you’re wrong about making diesel! You can run a diesel on almost anything, brake fluid, ATF, veg oil, motor oil, charcoal lighter fluid, & almost anything if it’s old enough with a mechanical pump on it. Gasoline is expensive to make. They make diesel when they make gasoline. Diesel is a byproduct of the gasoline production process. Diesel is very cheap to make, it just got expensive when they EPA got involved & the sulfur regulations went up, & diesel fuel went up in price. Diesels are actually very efficent, some of the new cars get up to 40mpg! My old 1993 250 gets 20mpg, it’s got 211k miles on it! What will start to happen is, with all the EV trucks they’ll start frying motors. There’s something about the Diesel engine you can’t replace. The power to weight ratio for diesels vs electric stuff is way better with the diesel. Diesels are cheaper to make than electric cars, they’re just heavily subsidized. This EV thing is just for the government to control you more, they can flip a switch & all of a sudden your car won’t work.
@@michaelbenoit248 I understand you can run diesel from things like waste fryer oil and other things, but while this may work for a small percentage of people, your not going to have your everyday consumer hunting/making their own diesel. Also, I don't understand how the government would be able to turn off my electric vehicle, as a matter of fact it would actually make me more independent, since I can have solar installed in my home and not only use for my vehicle but for my entire house. It would seem easier, if your of this mind set, that the government would be able to switch of the supply of fuel (gasoline/diesel/etc). You can say that the addition of regulations to limit the sulfur and other environmental emissions is the government reaching to far, but there is science behind why they are doing it. Regarding the power to weight ratio of a diesel to an electric, you are going to get more energy per pound from diesel to a battery, but that is not the issue. An electric motor can be as large as required, and Tesla Model S has a 416 HP motor, so power is not and issue. Telsa is also working on the release of an electric semi, where the motors will combine to well over 1,000 HP. Motor technology is continuously improving on both size and power density. As for frying your motor, that is not a major concern, and Tesla is predicting that current motors should reach over 1 million miles. EV's are just the evolution of transportation, and don't need to be viewed as some type of governmental conspiracy to control our lives. There are plenty of better ways for the government to control our lives, if that is what you believe the EV revolution is really all about.
Conventional gasoline or diesel vehicles will be outlawed, taken away from people and recycled. Then eventually EV vehicles will rule pretty much exclusively, but be controlled via Satellite. You'll be able to use something to call them up and come & get you to take you where you want to co both going & coming. Just a few companies will rule the market. No personal vehicles will be allowed. You won't need garages attached to your house, no car insurance to pay for, no mechanics to have your car fixed or maintained. It'll be a lot simpler and less polluting for sure. The EV battery technology needs to move its Source to common sand, which has 7 energy points from which to utilize. I figure everything previously mentioned above in this post should happen fairly quickly, sat within 10 to 15 years, long after I'm gone, which should be shortly.
@@BushcraftQuebec is that a manual transmission? If so that's way cool. If I get a pickup I prefer Ford trucks. I like them all..... just my taste for simplicity. 🍻
You mean the electric cars that catch on fire in or your when you hit a bump.. and exactly how much do those batteries cost to replace? And let’s let the child labor keep mining the lithium out of the ground .
Ok who can afford 5 to 20,000 s of f ing batteries? Is anyone’s retired parents going to Afford that and i also found out it is an additional costly expense to have a charger in the house!!
Like mining the cobalt required for the batteries is safer than gasoline, for the environment if you believe that, I have a bridge to sell you in Brooklyn
I wish that you had said something about the amount of energy that it takes to produce, recharge, and recycle the batteries. Some people think that electric is completely emissions free, but pollution occurs in the making, recharging, and disposal of the batteries.
Lol you are the same type of person who would have said you will never use a television when it first came out. They can try and pry my newspaper from my hands.... things change. Adapt or die.
Hey Scott, thanks for you informative video. Even though I am all for EV cars, the one thing that gas has over batteries is range and refilling. Right now, if you go on a trip with an EV, you have to plan a route around charging stations. Then in about 250 miles, you will need a fill up, which takes 3 to 4 hours. In a gas vehicle, you have the freedom to on the route of your choice. Drive 300 to 400 miles stop anywhere and refuel in about 3 to 4 minutes. Until the EV cars can compete with these two issues, gas beats electric.
The number of personally owned horses don't come anywhere near the 1900 numbers. In 1900 the big pollutant was horse droppings. I seriously doubt people want to go back to that. Unless we cut the World Population by 60%.
" Illegal " to purchase new ,, maybe ? . But not illegal to own, or sale used. This is will actually be a boom for the Used Car market , junkyards , repair shops and parts stores.
yeah, need energy to turn water to steam. The hydrogen car, splitting Hydrogren from Water makes some sense, but hey, if that ever really became mainstream, we'd drain all of our freshwater lakes for fuel. We'd solve the smog problem, sort of and introduce mass murder via dehydration. We'd eventually adapt to become The Raisin People, all shriveled up and parched, but proud of our near pollution free Hydro copters. Now, what does electric vehicles catching mean to our pending doom? Thinking that one through, but nothing comes without cost.
@@namemcnamerton4249 horses are alot worse! Believe me, I know! Plus...horses kick, bite, step on your foot and swish their sht and urine filled tail in your face.
Exotic sports cars like Ferrari and Lamborghini could easily remain in production for another 40 years, however the standard family sedan is unlikely to avoid the switch to EV for more than another 12 years IMO.
@57 Pan Hmmmn...that seems a little extreme. I believe somebody is already buying electric. This is similar to the move from horse drawn carriage to motor driven. Times they are a changin'
@@izack367 Yes. If you have to replace the battery it won't be cheap. Toyota offers an 8 year/96,000 mile warranty, so at least your covered for quite a while. Battery technology is advancing at break neck speeds, so in 8 years, both battery capacity and cost should come down substantially. So, yes battery replacement could still be expensive, but the same would be true for your ICE engine. Electrics are not going away, and based on guidance from the major auto makers they will be coming and they know it. ICE will not just disappear, and I would expect that you will still find ICE in a large number of cars in 20 years, but they will definitely be on a downward spiral.
You can't convert a combustion engine to electric but you can convert a combustion engine to take a hydrogen fuel cell and it is not expensive. Also mining and separating the rare earth metals is just as energy intensive and dirtier then mining the Tar sands . People are being scammed . These vehicles require government subsidies and allot of insiders are making bank on it .
@midnitesquirldog1 the initial capital outlay for it will be massive, just as you're saying. Arguably the externalities of gas and oil since their mainstream use in cars has also been financially huge (pollution effects on public health, climate change, oil spills etc). The big oil companies were benefitting before, lobbyists, and politicians too. Once these companies ease into electric cars, green energy, batteries, and metal mining then it will be the same story again. Hopefully though the mass adoption of this technology will be somewhat better for the environment.
One of my vehicles is a 1996 Ford Econoline high top conversion van with the 351 W engine. It has about 470,000 miles on it and it's still running strong. I bought it in 2004 for $7500 and I plan to keep driving it until its time to take it to the junkyard. Then I will buy another high top conversion van.
The government could outlaw gas and wouldn’t be able to buy the fuel. I believe such mandate will be a disaster. Not everyone can plug in their vehicle overnight. And imagine the huge demand for electrical power. They can’t even make it through summer without having dozens of power outages.
Chill dude. Im pretty sure in 2030 charging of ev will take as long as gas do so you dont have to plug it overnight you can juat plug it whenever you need it. 10 years ago charging phone takes 3 hours not it only takes 20 to 30 minutes.
no they won't, hybrids with freevalve (camless) or modern 2s opposed piston will be still there - they're both 50%+ efficient, btw skyactivX - 43%, dynamic force - 41% It's just a marketing campaign
My son charges his Tesla at home during off peak time and at work for free! About 190 mile commute and never stops for gas! Great video Professor Scotty!!
Wonder why they don't modernise a steam engine? They are up to 65% efficient. Steam doesn't need a transmission because it has a lot of torque! You can use a condenser to turn it back to water.
all I can say is it makes hell of a more (long term) pollution then ICE engines and for the sake of the argument lets say it makes same amount of pollution as ICEs.. what's the point of switching from one fuel to another. your just exhausting the natural resources.
And where does the electric come from? 95% energy efficient from the battery to the road, but efficiency of electric generation to battery charged, well that's a different story.
Beyond the lack of electrical infrastructure particularily in condos or apartments there is the issue of electric transmission. In northern climates the battery capacity drops dramatically below -5 Celsius. The energy density of batteries is less than 1% of the energy density of gasoline.
Over 20 miles an hour, the tires of a car make more noise than the engine. Below 20 mph, electric cars now come with an artificial external sound so they can be heard.
@@philipperapaccioli2868 So, for a delivery person like myself, who spends the majority of the day moving at less than 15 mph, I'm supposed to hear that obnoxious silly noise all day?
Instead of hours for recharging, there will be a vehicle exchange program, where you insert your car's interior that you personalized into a chassis that is fully recharged. It will take 5 minutes to do the exchange.
The mining and separation of the rare earth metals is more intense and as expensive as capturing hydrogen which does pollute far less then EV's and combustion engines are easily and affordably converted . China and Toyota are two examples of big money being put in to the R & D of capturing hydrogen in a cost effective way . There is so much more to these then most let on .
lion battery recycling is easy and preferred - the lithium electrolyte can easily be recycled into new batteries and is preferred to mining for new lithium
Some people are saying " they'll never get rid of gas motors". Well they already have us wearing two cloth masks to fight the nothingburger you-know-what, is this really the last station on the line?
What I don’t understand is why they say electric cars are clean compared to gas cars. Especially since the carbon footprint used to produce the batteries and have them shipped all over the world is much higher than what an internal combustion engine will ever produce. Its a scam!!
Who is going to pay to install all of the charging stations and the additional power generation needed. What is the cost to recycle the batteries???? Difficult to recycle!!
Long range road trips will be harder to do in the future. For example, it normally takes about 18 hours to drive between NYC and Miami. With an electric car that can take about 3 days. That's a huge difference. However, for local driving it's okay.
I wonder about the lithem supply only one mine in the us Lithem Nevada ,the Talabaum has most of the rest ,where will batterys be disposed off where will all the eletricty come from etc.
Don't worry , Canada has some of the largest deposits of lithium and rare earth metals that are not even being mined yet . We can supply the US and screw the US like it does us with pipelines etc... It will be a fun turn of events .
Moving silently into the future. I'm an IC lover, but, it's important to move to cleaner energy. Hopefully I still get to drive my fox Mustang until I die.
@@Raymo2u exactly. Still plenty of pollution during production, some places still have coal power plants and then all those batteries that will eventually need to be replaced are an environmental hazard all on their own. Just moving the pollution from one hand to another in a way that makes it seem clean. All smoke and mirrors when you look at the entire picture of it all.
Congratulations Scotty, you’ve just graduated to TH-cam “ PROFESSOR OF THE YEAR.” I enjoy my electric riding lawn mower, Love my electric snowblower, weed wicker, Hedge trimmer, drills, grinders, impacts, ratchets, but when they build an electric car to beat John Force in the quarter mile, I’ll THINK about buying one.
I keep hearing all this talk about charging stations for electric cars, but never hear about what they charge? You know, the part where you have to pay?

The best thing about EVs to me is the fact that no matter if sports hybrid like the i8 or electronic eco-bubble like the Leaf they all pull like crazy. No need to build up RPMs just instant strong acceleration.
I only paid $1,200 for my car, a 1998 Nissan Maxima. I can drive my car across Texas(Texarkana to El Paso), in just under 12 hours(minimum). If any parts are needed, they are available pretty much everywhere, and not crazy expensive. If there's a part I can't install, practically any mechanic can. I'm not stuck with paying the extra cost of going to a dealer mechanic. The same can't be said about electric cars.
Scottie, love you channel, I'm a European, Americans should be proud of Tesla. This company has lead the world to a new future of cleaner transportation. I changed to an EV in September 2019, not a Tesla, but a BMW i3. Here in Europe Teslas are still more expensive than other EV options, but they are awesome!
@@user-tb7rn1il3q So tell me , when cars drive themselves who will be at fault when there are accidents? And there will be accidents! By the way I live way out in the country, theres no way these computer operated golf carts will ever work here. ,

Wow! Thanks Scotty! You should have been a teacher as well. Your video illustration made more sense and was easier to understand than my basic electrical engineering professor who worked for NASA Lewis!
Electric cars have way to short range in the winter, and the heater isn't good enough. It also takes way to long to charge. Would love to see some hydrogen cars

Right. Gasoline and diesel can be relatively easily made at home. With a certain knowledge. I like EV's because they seem fun (and simple), but not crazy about them from an emissions standpoint. They're cool for their delivery of power. Too bad the SJW nutcases have ruined the image of what was kinda neat.

Scotty doesn’t mention some rather important aspects of electric cars, 1st the range sucks doesn’t charging isn’t done in a flash. 2nd Scotty doesn’t touch on just where the lithium comes from, HINT: a country NOT very friendly to the US, 3rd. Electric cars are of the great delusion, to charge any electric vehicle you have to get the electricity from some were, yes that coal, gas or nuclear power plant then through power lines to your house then you plug it in, then pay your electric bill. So as all those electric car users load the electric grid even more than it is now. so when they tell you we are cutting pollution by eliminating gas cars they don’t tell you that those polluting power plants will be working overtime or keep up with the demand. And of course your utility will then tell you, oh we need a rate increased upgrade our equipment for the increased demand, it won’t end there, they will then tell you the grid is outdated (it is already) and needs to be rebuilt. Figured it out yet ? Probably not … …
Not only that people who houses have options for solar panels (which is awesome AND expensive) that way they don't pay too much for electricity from the city. People who live in apartments won't have that choice.....Like ever. And not to mention hybrids vehicles are used and will have a lot of miles on them.....

An EV is only as “green” as the energy used to generate the electricity to charge it. If you live where the power is generated from coal or gas then your EV is ultimately still powered by fossil fuels. Gasoline is 40 times more energy dense than the best lithium ion batteries.
Not only that but did you ever see them mining for lithium? Its very evasive.
burning fuel in a power plant to heat steam to be converted to electricity, to eventually be used in an electric motor is still way more efficient overall than burning gas to move pistons - 60% of that is lost as heat. also, fossil fuel use to make electricity is dwindling. power from coal plants has halved in the past decade. natural gas will be next as solar and wind are the cheapest forms of electricity now.

Even if EV need to be changed for 1 hour, it doesn't matter anymore because for 6 hour driving on the road eventually you need to take a break like eating, and while you eat you can charge your EV to full.

The elephant in the room about EVs is, where's all that "clean and cheap" charging power going to come from? In many areas, the grid is already at its maximum. Ever heard of California brown-outs during the summer time? And power won't be "clean and cheap" even if you can get it.
No worries. Anyone can make electricity, but it's a little difficult making gasoline or diesel. Also, grids actually are under-burdened in evening hours, and the electric companies will actually benefit from being able to offer cheaper electric rates for night time charging. The majority of charging will start when people return home from work, so they will heavily lean towards evening charge hours.
Jess Cretney, you’re wrong about making diesel! You can run a diesel on almost anything, brake fluid, ATF, veg oil, motor oil, charcoal lighter fluid, & almost anything if it’s old enough with a mechanical pump on it.
Gasoline is expensive to make.
They make diesel when they make gasoline.
Diesel is a byproduct of the gasoline production process.
Diesel is very cheap to make, it just got expensive when they EPA got involved & the sulfur regulations went up, & diesel fuel went up in price.
Diesels are actually very efficent, some of the new cars get up to 40mpg! My old 1993 250 gets 20mpg, it’s got 211k miles on it!
What will start to happen is, with all the EV trucks they’ll start frying motors.
There’s something about the Diesel engine you can’t replace. The power to weight ratio for diesels vs electric stuff is way better with the diesel. Diesels are cheaper to make than electric cars, they’re just heavily subsidized.
This EV thing is just for the government to control you more, they can flip a switch & all of a sudden your car won’t work.
@@michaelbenoit248 I understand you can run diesel from things like waste fryer oil and other things, but while this may work for a small percentage of people, your not going to have your everyday consumer hunting/making their own diesel. Also, I don't understand how the government would be able to turn off my electric vehicle, as a matter of fact it would actually make me more independent, since I can have solar installed in my home and not only use for my vehicle but for my entire house. It would seem easier, if your of this mind set, that the government would be able to switch of the supply of fuel (gasoline/diesel/etc). You can say that the addition of regulations to limit the sulfur and other environmental emissions is the government reaching to far, but there is science behind why they are doing it. Regarding the power to weight ratio of a diesel to an electric, you are going to get more energy per pound from diesel to a battery, but that is not the issue. An electric motor can be as large as required, and Tesla Model S has a 416 HP motor, so power is not and issue. Telsa is also working on the release of an electric semi, where the motors will combine to well over 1,000 HP. Motor technology is continuously improving on both size and power density. As for frying your motor, that is not a major concern, and Tesla is predicting that current motors should reach over 1 million miles. EV's are just the evolution of transportation, and don't need to be viewed as some type of governmental conspiracy to control our lives. There are plenty of better ways for the government to control our lives, if that is what you believe the EV revolution is really all about.

Hey Scott, thanks for you informative video. Even though I am all for EV cars, the one thing that gas has over batteries is range and refilling. Right now, if you go on a trip with an EV, you have to plan a route around charging stations. Then in about 250 miles, you will need a fill up, which takes 3 to 4 hours. In a gas vehicle, you have the freedom to on the route of your choice. Drive 300 to 400 miles stop anywhere and refuel in about 3 to 4 minutes. Until the EV cars can compete with these two issues, gas beats electric.

So, yes battery replacement could still be expensive, but the same would be true for your ICE engine.

@midnitesquirldog1 the initial capital outlay for it will be massive, just as you're saying. Arguably the externalities of gas and oil since their mainstream use in cars has also been financially huge (pollution effects on public health, climate change, oil spills etc). The big oil companies were benefitting before, lobbyists, and politicians too. Once these companies ease into electric cars, green energy, batteries, and metal mining then it will be the same story again. Hopefully though the mass adoption of this technology will be somewhat better for the environment.

Don't worry , Canada has some of the largest deposits of lithium and rare earth metals that are not even being mined yet . We can supply the US and screw the US like it does us with pipelines etc... It will be a fun turn of events .
Moving silently into the future. I'm an IC lover, but, it's important to move to cleaner energy. Hopefully I still get to drive my fox Mustang until I die.
Electric is far from "cleaner" aside from emissions when driven...
Cleaner energy is a scam.
WHERE HEADED FOR A ICE AGE FOR NOT ENOUGH CO2
@@Raymo2u Not actually true, even if you ran em off coal plants. Which won't be likely to be what happens very much.
@@Raymo2u exactly. Still plenty of pollution during production, some places still have coal power plants and then all those batteries that will eventually need to be replaced are an environmental hazard all on their own. Just moving the pollution from one hand to another in a way that makes it seem clean. All smoke and mirrors when you look at the entire picture of it all.
Congratulations Scotty, you’ve just graduated to TH-cam “ PROFESSOR OF THE YEAR.” I enjoy my electric riding lawn mower, Love my electric snowblower, weed wicker, Hedge trimmer, drills, grinders, impacts, ratchets, but when they build an electric car to beat John Force in the quarter mile, I’ll THINK about buying one.
I refuse no v8 WE HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM
Even though disposing of electric car batteries is worse for the environment than gasoline cars by far....
That will change
It’s not going to happen anytime soon, probably not for another 20-30 years.

Ways of making batteries
Yeah, but democrats will make sure your fuel prices skyrocket until then.
I keep hearing all this talk about charging stations for electric cars, but never hear about what they charge? You know, the part where you have to pay?
Good evening Scotty, looks like your timing is impeccable one more time I just got in the door just made a pizza just cracked open a brewski and now here you are with a video excellence go for the 4 billion champ🥁🤗🧰🙌👍
Arr Scotty, betcha glad you are coming to the end of being a top spanner wielder, you were/are the right man for your time. However we glad that you are still taking the time to give us the benefit of your sound advice.
I don't think you're very happy making this video just saying for a friend I'm used to the Cherry Scotty
VODKA RUNS CARS AND GREAT WITH OJ....NEVER SURRENDER.
Could you re-word that for me please??
What an awesome horsepower era its been! Nobody will ever forget Mopar and Chrysler in the Hemi and what they did with the Hellcat and Demon it will never be forgotten this era in horsepower wars is amazing, enjoy it while it still lasts and if you have a V8 musclecar like i do hang on to it!
Evening, Scotty! Would love a video on one of the 2nd generation Sequoia's. Have a great weekend Mr. Kilmer!
evening will do!

Yeah, how about the battery efficiency ?
* Scotty's last video: electric cars are a scam!
* Scott in this video: electric cars are the future!
he's got a video for everyone, gotta get that adsense money
Already brown outs. Just wait until you can’t run A/C in Texas heat because neighbors are charging their electric cars.
The best thing about EVs to me is the fact that no matter if sports hybrid like the i8 or electronic eco-bubble like the Leaf they all pull like crazy. No need to build up RPMs just instant strong acceleration.
We should bring back gasification!!!
I only paid $1,200 for my car, a 1998 Nissan Maxima. I can drive my car across Texas(Texarkana to El Paso), in just under 12 hours(minimum). If any parts are needed, they are available pretty much everywhere, and not crazy expensive. If there's a part I can't install, practically any mechanic can. I'm not stuck with paying the extra cost of going to a dealer mechanic. The same can't be said about electric cars.
I hate electric vehicles. I like gas cars. Hybrids are okay, because when you are in heavy traffic it's nice to use electricity when needed. P.K.
Scottie, love you channel, I'm a European, Americans should be proud of Tesla. This company has lead the world to a new future of cleaner transportation. I changed to an EV in September 2019, not a Tesla, but a BMW i3. Here in Europe Teslas are still more expensive than other EV options, but they are awesome!
When gasoline engined cars become illegal I will rip up my drivers license and stop driving.
Wuss...
In the next 10 years the license will become obsolete as cars become more automated.

@@user-tb7rn1il3q So tell me , when cars drive themselves who will be at fault when there are accidents? And there will be accidents! By the way I live way out in the country, theres no way these computer operated golf carts will ever work here.

Energy density of gas and diesel and rare earth shortages ensure a long future for ICEs in many applications... still waiting for those radical advances in battery tech. they've been promised for decades.
I'm going to be walking... I won't be able to fart.

Well done, Scotty! You did not tell one lie, and it was really clear, well detailed and accurate.
If they make desails illegal I'm gonna be pissed off

Wow! Thanks Scotty! You should have been a teacher as well. Your video illustration made more sense and was easier to understand than my basic electrical engineering professor who worked for NASA Lewis!
Scotty went from making videos in his living room to
Computer images and voice over lol.
It was supposed to be on a different channel, but it died due to it mostly being common knowledge content.
Electric cars have way to short range in the winter, and the heater isn't good enough. It also takes way to long to charge. Would love to see some hydrogen cars
There’s something called a heat pump in EVs.
