Breaking news, people want affordable EVs
Yeah like $13k not 30k
then let chinese EV in.
Also variety of models and types.
@@DJNoMaskExpecting a nice and new car at 13k in this market is crazy
13K - really, with Bidenflation even a motorcycle that people want is more than 20k.. good luck on the 13k unless you want a golf cart. Speaking as a Tesla owner 3x.
There's two people who have screwed GM. 1) Whoever cancelled EV1. 2) Current CEO who's been talking BS to prop up share price ever since becoming CEO. and who's being paid 30 million a year for some unknown reason.
Because THE MESSAGE
Agreed. Yep, the canning of the EV1 has to be the mistake of the century. And the current CEO is a fabricator of fantasies.
Tesla did not start with Elon. It started with GM's disgruntled engineers that worked on the EV1.
@@dgurevich1 Everhart and the other chap? Ex GM? You live and learn.

I’m a 56 yr old mechanic, I bought a mod 3 three years ago! Best present I ever bought , bar none😊
In europe and Asia EV´s are booming, no FUD at all
Yes in UK second hand low - medium mileage Tesla prices are climbing as people are seeing the bigger picture 🏴🇺🇸🏴
Could this cause a surprised 1st qtr delivery number?
@@WillR-Cincy 🤞🙂
I wouldn't say that there was no FUD in UK/Europe. It's just that people aren't exposed quite as much because the TV/Radio media is regulated. You can't openly report BS as fact. There's no such equivalent in USA media. Of course the paper press is just as bad either side of the Pond and that's where the majority of the FUD exists. You might also think "online FUD", but that is countered just as much.
I sold my 2020 Seat Mii Electric Plus and got a 2018 Tesla model S 75D. The Tesla is more efficient than the Seat above 80 km/h and goes twice as far even though the Tesla is double the weight and size.
With the amount of Tesla's coming out of lease the prices have come down so much it's affordable to drive as middle class.
You are spot on with your big vehicle critique.
Exactly, only thing I would point out missing is larger SUVs & Trucks are also dangerous and contributing to record pedestrian & cyclists deaths among developed countries, because of their higher front areas, tend to hit others at a higher point.
A bicycle is a kids toy. Remove the bicycle lanes. These immature adults are a road hazard.

i haven't upgraded my gas car for 8 years waiting for Tesla 2 to come out, I'm a disabled vet and this is what I've been waiting for, I'm comfortable but i can't afford the other choices
Used model 3?
Buy a Kia E Niro or similar, great car!
Tesla 2 will never come out, I predict. But the 3 may get less expensive over time. Meaning that 3 will become 2.
The problem is in the USA mainly. In Europe there is a problem with EV adoption but not so much as in the USA. In China it is not a problem, just in March 2024, EV adoption hit a rate of almost 50%.
What's your source for China having a 50% adoption rate?
I agree and everything you have to say except one more thing need more range if you live in a state that's really has a lot of spread out room with no infrastructure you need more Is range
Straight out of Wang ChuanFu's prediction, >50% in a few months, that is crazy.
@@keel5626It’s because china has these cheap $12k 2 seater EV’s that younger adults are buying.
@@GROGU123 Also they're buying mobility scooters so they can drive from their bed to work and directly into the offices to their desk (those still with jobs). Wonder if that counts towards the 50%.
Also easier to implement when a government like China brings in rules stopping most people buying combustion powered vehicles.
Don't exaggerate. There were 14 Bolt fires worldwide. Fourteen. 14. Not many.
We had 20 burn 🔥 in just my neighborhood during our Florida flooding last year. Then my neighbors house burned down….
Go ahead and roll the dice.
How does the efficiency of the Hyundai EV6 compare with the model 3? That is a question that I find much more interesting than comparing with a Hummer (or a cybertruck).
Tesla had this in their business plan in the 2nd year of Elon Musk taking over the businesss . The rest is a result of innovation, delegation, acquisition and finally smart thinking. The foundation includes effort and focus.
That CAFE rule pisses me off because it is why there are no small pickups, with useful bed lengths, available in the US market anymore.
Also the chicken tax
You'd think they would make special accommodations for vehicles that are built for work not efficiency
They should tax vehicle sales based on total emissions and fuel economy regardless of size like in Europe. This pushes vehicles smaller and more efficient.
CAFE rules have nothing to do with the loss of small pickups. The Chicken tax and consumer preferences do.
@@matthewhuszarik4173The "Chicken Tax" started in the mid 60s, small pickups were extremely popular in the US for decades after it went into effect.
It was not the only reason the mini truck died in the US, but CAFE standards were objectively the largest contributor, as manufacturers were faced with either building useless vehicles people wouldn't buy, or charging so much for them to offset the penalties that people wouldn't buy them.
CATL, worlds largest battery maker and closely cooperating with TESLA, announcing price cuts at 50% in 2024. 😎 Wonder if Elon knows that? He surely didnt like the compact getting postponed back in 2021, and he obviously doesnt want further delays, now the battery problem seems perfectly solved. Expect reveal of the compelling 25$ supercar, designed especially for the European and chineese market, is iminent. With a sporty look and better specs than M3, creating a demand of 5 mill. units a year, Elon has to put all hands on deck, or all Gigas to produce…..right away and simultaniously.
Thanks for the pipe dream specs of the model 2.
Ford and GM will use CATL batteries
@10:17 yesss thank you for saying this!
Im a family of 6. The only comfortable vehicle for us and all our stuff is a full size van. Let’s work on that.
You should be looking at Canoo then. They have a 7 (could be 7 rear seats, don’t recall sorry) seater van in the works. Pretty decent all around stats and proposed price. They claim production will be starting soon. 🤞
Ha, nobody is having 4 kids anymore. Millennials today want fur babies and unlikely to have even 1 kid it seems
Tons of FUD in the past year driving more people to buy more gas car, now they can raise the gas price. People lost a battle again.
Just stay poor and learn nothing. You have a serious lack of knowledge.
If Tesla's concern was simply to increase running efficiency, they wouldn't supply cars with large diameter rims.
Bet it will be 35k when it comes out..
100% Correct...!
I agree that the Hummer is a pointless vehicle. That's still cool AF. And pretty good in an apocalyptic scenario, better yet, the Cybertruck with bulletproof S.S. But, I am glad for 1 thing, I need a heavy lift truck to tow my 40' 5th wheel trailer that weighs close to 20k lbs. I want a full electric truck that gets 500 miles of range on a single 80% charge that doesn't cost over $100k. An F-350-like dually or even a tandem axle-like truck would be awesome for my needs. I also would like a small compact car like a model 3 performance for my everyday driver. I'm just lacking funds for all that atm. But Yes, I agree, they should make small cheap compact cars before the big rigs in order to fill their coffers first.
They are not putting YOU first, just trying to meet the needs of the vast majority of people profitably, thus filling their coffers. What the major automobile manufacturers have been doing for over 100 years. Ford started with modal T not F352. not
There's another issue that doesn't get much coverage around cars. A lot of people in the US and other parts of the world are over 6' tall. When I try to sit in some of the compact cars my knees stick into the dash quite painfully. Granted, that's not the only reason, but it's part of the reason smaller cars from some manufacturers have not sold as well as they would expect. Look at some of the original Toyota tiny vehicles that came to the US and you'll see what I mean.
this is a design flaw, not compact car characteristic. I am 187cm tall (6'2), and I can seat comfortably in Smart #1, but can't find position in Mustang Mach E as the middle console frame hit the side of my kneecap.
another excellent summary video of the industry.
Why I subscribed
Ford has recently started producing the Exporer electric car in Germany. This vehicle is based on the VW ID.4 because its range is greater than the Tesla Model Y Longrange with Dual Drive. That's why Tesla is now offering us a Model Y Long Range with a rear engine and with even more range than the Ford.
Interesting. Thank you.
I travel a lot to Costa Rica for work.. in the last 2 years the variety of Eve form china that I have saw is amazing, they're not only good looking... they affordable vs any Ev in America
This has been an Advertorial from TESLA. Thank you for watching. A sales rep will join you momentarily.
There is one disadvantage with relying on efficiency. If the conditions are suboptimal the range must surely fall more noticeably than if you had an inefficient car with a compensatingly large battery. All it would take is low tyre pressure, a roof-rack, a heavy load. And your range noticeably falls. Or at least that is what i imagine - i dont have a small(ish) tesla to test that.
Yeah, but have you seen an EV Hummer take off? 0 to 60 in 3 seconds in Watts to Freedom mode. All 4 tires can peel out. Not sure how many want to pay for that.
Less than 1000 people want that...according to their total sales since rollout😂
Facts matter: Every Bolt did not get a battery replacement. Multiple articles available with a quick Google search.
1:31 that‘s it !
Im sure the big three did market big vehicles in 2012, however, Americans have loved trucks and suvs for as long as there have been trucks and suvs... The prices for these vehicles in the last five to ten years has been an overreach by the industry. Truck and big SUV sales are dropping because regular people can't pay 70k for a pick up.
People used to drive minivans and pickups were smaller and not as common in suburban environments. They love them now in good part because of the amenities they have. Fewer people love a plain pickup truck with little added utility other than defense or bulling mechanism. They have mostly become Emotional Support Vehicles.
You skipped over the fact that large vehicles like trucks now have much better fuel efficiency , ride quality, attractive styling, and features that make having a large vehicle more appealing to consumers.
I'm buying a BYD Seagull and selling my VW Polo
The premise of the Video is good, but I would suggest that the biggest reason the Big 3 US companies choose to make big expensive EV’s was because they had to learn to make EV’s and wanted to try and cover cost because they could charge so much more. They knew they would loose $$$, less if more expensive and sold less… Just sayin’ 🤔🤪
They've been doing the same with gas and diesel vehicles. Instead of supplying common sense efficient vehicles, they work to change the minds of the American market for bigger more luxurious vehicles. Now we spend more on infrastructure and whatever progress we made to reduce harmful emissions with hybrid and electric vehicles has been offset by suburban tanks.
The "Real Reason" that Tesla (years ago) announced the cheap, affordable "model 2" was that any start-up auto company starts
off with expensive luxury cars and as their skills and knowledge increase they gradually transition to more affordable models.
Can't wait for the Model 2 Hatchback Tesla. BUT most of use really love the big touch screen BUT really hate the lack of physical buttons & steering wheel stalks & will never purchase a car with virtually no buttons.
3:50 So instead of getting bigger tires so not to destroy the rims, you get a fancy "gadget" that you will also destroy.
Just say I have not watched the whole video.But I have to comment that hummer has never been an efficient brand and it's just bad ass lol
I still think the next Tesla needs to be called the model A so we can complete the sentences.
Model S
Model 3
Model X
Model Y
Cybertruck
(Model A)
Roadster
SpaceX Roadster
S3XY CARS
So frustrating it took this long for car makers to realize we want reasonably sized, affordable cars.
Ford will loose here for the NA market. The lightning with a smallish battery and a range extender would be a hit. The RamCharger will set the standard for serial hybrid range extended larger vehicles where there is a lot of margin.
Demand for the Lightning has plummeted. It an't coming back.
tesla 2 will change the world
China EVs are competitive in prices and choice of quality.
That small Tesla looks like the Ford Focus EV from 12 years ago with a Tesla front fascia grafted on.
Finally. This explains the Cybertruck. .... no, wait ...
US adoption would be much faster if we had charging infrastructure as good as EU, no dealer markups, higher gas prices (EU is 4x US price), and lower prices. However, we are starting to get lower prices now.
BYD is the worst at vehicle fires and explosions. How they are managing to do that with lithium iron phosphate is beyond me.
Hybrids contain ICE engines and gasoline. These catch on fire.
Could have said it all in 3 minutes.. smaller cheaper farther.
This video hits the nail on the head in so many ways. Give us small, efficient, affordable, EV's. The EPA loophole days are over with china coming for the USA's lunch.
Tesla is the best car company ever! No gas stations, No oil changes, No smog check, No corrupt dealership, No catalytic converter and as fast as a $650,000 Lamborghini.
But it doesn't look, stop or corner like the Lamborghini does it...
@@dannycolverson6944 Well considering over 90% of all vehicles on the road are used to help people to go to and from work and provide for a family or oneself, those points seem very unnecessary especially for a garage queen car that only 1% of the world population can afford
I must just be lucky, because after 3years of driving a Nissan Leaf, we have not had any problems, maintenance or range issues.
For environmental reasons, I thought Tesla should have concentrated on the next gen vehicle several years back, instead of focusing on the Cybertruck. But if work truck owners transition to a Cybertruck, then I suppose that vehicle can be justified.
Until they come up with a super battery, heavy work is done more efficiently by diesel engines. Although most pickup trucks aren't really used for work but as daily commuters. In any case, it was a waste of resources, they'll be lucky to make a profit from it.
Curb rash isn't an EV thing, bro :) nor an efficiency thing, it's performance and looks.
And is there an actual slow down in EV adoption or is there a general slow down of car purchases. I see no loss of faith in EVs, Teslas don't have a reputation for being inadequate at all.
The Model 2 looks very similar to the VW Scirocco
Hi, greetings from the U.K. Here in Europe, many of us are looking forward to the Tesla Model 2 - or whatever they decide to call it. Even the Tesla M3 is a relatively large car here, our city’s and roads were designed for the horse and cart and big cars are not a good fit. I have a BMW i3, which by USA standards is a very small car, but here it is a popular size. Europe with buy a well engineer smaller Tesla (with a hatchback, not sedan) by the tens of thousands.
I hope the next Tesla is a hatchback or small SUV rather than a sedan. People like the practicality of an SUV.
fuck SUV, they are just for fat americans. They are not going to sell in Europe, there you need real cars, not boxes on whells
The model Y is already a small SUV. Any smaller and you can't really call it and SUV.
I think o heard u said BYD makes bad quality Affordable EVS
Yeah it always seemed that all other companies made EV horrible on purpose. Like they want it to fail. Until they realize someone (Tesla) decided to make a great product. But they decided to still make EV not likable.
You don’t need to be hit by an SUV to die in one of those tiny death traps.
finally manufacturers understanding that big EVs are a waste of resources? I hope it will not only translate into only sub compact SUVs. hatchback are great all around small cars. modern wagons with properly designed hatch and good drag coefficient could make efficient 2 or 3 row wagons with great passenager/cargo space without wasting much efficiency. AWD can be available and its not too hard to make a slightly raised version for people who are actually driving gravel/dirt roads or steep driveways. with a flat underbody , no diffs or exhausts hanging, you don't need as much suspension lift, and it should be easy and cheap to equip additional underbody protection. all the unused headroom and ground clearance space is wasting energy all the time.
Petrol vehicle manufacturers don’t really have the EV mindset. They are still stuck in the old thinking.
Well done video ... thanks for that. Yeah, I've been holding out for better batteries with longer range. Partly because I don't like the idea that buying a new EV will only get me half the miles of my old van from last century (1996). I can drive 3 hours north through mountains to visit family and drive all the way back home before I need to refuel and I can refuel at my own local place with people I know. I'd like for Tesla to make a minivan that would get 600 miles range (966km) with wireless charging for $25,000. Perhaps with those new Amprius batteries or the NASA SABERS batteries? Something made in the USA that can't catch fire. I like all that "drive by wire" and 48v tech too. It seems, right now, Tesla has the better software and are the only ones making a profit from EV's so, I feel like I need to go with Tesla ... even tho I now despise Musk for being a lunatic and wish the Tesla board would kick him out.
if people want to buy an EV that is fine but i have yet to hear a credible reason for the need to transistion to EVs and ban ICE vehicles. if the issue wasn't being forced you might actually end up with some affordable EVs with decent build quality
“Violently disagree….” Haha, I like your wit, so true as well 😂
My next car will be a combustion too....EV maybe when they have fixed the 1000 probs and never with Lithium Batteries.
Almost breaking news from UK/Europe - the Chinese have arrived. And the cars definitely do not suck.
EDIT: Yes that CAFE standard just showed the way for manufacturers to make bigger and less efficient vehicles. They make way more profit on them. They largely used existing technology. Despite the fact that they were/are way more dangerous, a little bit of marketing covers that setback. Truth is, they crash poorly compared to a decent saloon car. They handle really poorly. They cost relatively little to buy - "you get a lot of car for your money" - so the saying goes, before you trick the things out, of course. Yet cost a ton to operate. The visibility is so bad that a new epidemic has grown in the USA - parents running over their own kids. The list goes on and on, yet people buy them because they are told it makes them feel safe. And it's totally untrue. But they are joining the herd. I have a solution - change the CAFE standard so that it closes the loophole.
It is absolutely no good to build an electric car unless you have an established charging Network that meets people's daily needs. Not everybody can put a charger in their house, apartment. Not everybody has 220 amp service at their home a lot of America is still operating off of 100 or 60 amp service. So until you stop worrying about just the car and think about the infrastructure this is going to be dead on delivery
BMW is one exception to the “cheap global car” idea - they have survived just fine. Tesla can do the same. Chasing cheap just leads to the bottom of the barrel. Tesla would do better to refine their 3 and Y with higher build quality, more luxurious design and yes absolutely greater efficiency. The less charging required the better. Leave the cheapest budget cars to others and focus on making the best overall ownership experience at a slightly higher price point.
If aptera gets rolling I believe that vehicle will be as popular as the tesla 25k car that probably will never be 25k
You're gonna be surprised.
100% Agree.
Not a chance. Aptera looks like a toy car.
Tesla will come to market at 35-40k and push the model three up to about 65-70
Aptera isn’t even spending money on a big car development yet. They know how ford did it and VW and Honda and Toyota. You don’t start making luxury cars and work your way down. That is Reaganomics and as we all are well aware that doesn’t work. It’s how we got where we are now.
Interesting reporting, but some of what is being said in the video in favor of Tesla sounds a bit untruthful to put it mildly. God bless,
"The Real Reason" part 45
Even the Chevy Bolt burned down less than ice vehicles and hybrids do.
Not for $, right
Where is all that electricity for charging EVs come from? Mostly fossil fuels. Let's not lose sight of why EVs exist to begin with. It's supposed to reduce CO2 emissions. No matter how affordable they become, they won't solve the renewables problem.
Still more efficient than burning gas directly. With your mindset, we would still be burning fuel for public street lighting. But to be real, the best solution is sensible urban planning and public transportation. Until we come up with teleportation the predominant use of individual forms of transportation is not a sustainable way to move people in a city.
Electric batteries are not the optimal energy delivery system for EVs. They are not and will nevef be reliable enough-, energy dense-, and durable enough to power an EV. Hybrid fusion/fission cells, based on current technology, such as those that power the space probes launched back in 1969, would give us 8,000 mile range vehicles TODAY. But then the issue becomes crazy neighbor Bob arguing with his wife, the cops are called and he drives angily away in his nuclear weapon ...scenarious such as these basically ruins it for the rest of us :(
Americans have been asking for a $20k EV. Corporate America ignored that.
Then China came out with a bunch and suddenly now corporate America makes $25k EV's.
The cheaper EVs get the more other companies are forced to also develop cheaper EVs therefore speeding up our transition to electric and finally having clean air in cities stopping people getting cancer and other horrible stuff linked to vehicle exhaust pollution.
There’s nothing about the American market that shows people want a compact ev. They don’t want compact ice vehicles either. Every vehicle is suv, crossover suv or truck.
Real reason real reason real reason real reason. Was there a secret?
Tesla sells directly to customers as cost of middlemen is gone... no markup price 😅😅
Tesla is developing a cheaper EV just as Elon always said they would, knowing that at some point another car manufacturer would twig on to the need for a peoples car and come to eat Tesla's lunch. BYD, it seems is that car company. As for the less expensive Tesla, there are six things that they should feature.
1) Scrap touch screens and make all controls tactile. Fiddling with your touch screen while driving is more dangerous that using your cell phone. For instance the radio besides being controllable from the steering wheel should have a nob on the left for tuning and a nob on the right for turning on and off and controlling volume. Not all historical innovations have to be scrapped just to be 'modern'.
2) A major design fault of all cars including EVs is having all 4 electric windows. The driver's window should be a quality wind-down window. The other three windows - electric and operated at the window and by the driver. Driving into a pond or lake is not a pretty prospect with an electric drivers-window.
3) Once you have done '1', look at the speedometer display of the Leaf. It is clear, visible through the top half of the steering wheel, and only takes a very quick glance to get any information you want. You hardly have to take your eye off the road. Adopt it just as it is.
4) For heaven sake include somewhere in the car (possibly in the trunk or frunk) a 110V (220 in the rest of the world) three pin AC plug so that you can operate a kettle, chain saw, welder or whatever else you want to plug in. Make sure it has an Amp rating of about twice a standard three-pin home-plug.
5) Go back to the original idea of making the car 2-way. Ie. you can power your house from your car if you want to during power outages or even have it plugged in to store the juice from your solar panels and return it at night.
If you want to compete with BYD you have to out-do them.
6) Use LFP or even Na batteries as they become practical and develop a package so that if the battery ever drops below practical capacity, you can remove the battery and use it as a home battery. This would also apply to batteries from crashed cars. Make sure that it is simple (like in the Leaf) to replace the battery if this is ever necessary. Actually, if you do '5', you could simply keep the car, plug it in to the house and buy a new one.
And we should make ships out of wood.
You forgot to mention that the Chinese EV market is massively subsidised which is why they’re so cheap
Go smaller. Go cheaper. And do it better so true words put profits aside U make enough money on add extras. I prefer to drive my self
They should make a Tesla CyberSUV in the spirit of the Cybertruck. A big, bulky mf.
You could have done this video in 3 minutes. Cut the yammering!
COST.
BYD ??? Burning your dreams hahaha, NEVER i buy that firecracker on wheels
It's not just that they ran a cost analysis and found they could save money by just increasing the size of vehicles.
Before Tesla, they didn't think it possible to make EV's at scale. Hell, it still can't be done across all auto manufacturers at the same time. We just don't have enough battery material mined and being manufactured fast enough to support the whole transition.
It will happen, it just needs time. Time enough to strengthen the electric grid to be capable of handling those loads. Time enough for battery recycling to be dialed in & scaled up for at scale manufacturing needs. Time enough for the oil companies to scale back their consumer sales and sell in bulk to electric companies.
Trying to force the transition faster than the market can adapt causes unexpected consequences: Brownouts.
I bought a brand new MG for $32 000 (Australian). That included tinted windows. It has everything, sometimes I think they went too far with all the bells and whistles. Petrol driven.
Is there an EV like my MG that would cost the same? It must charge within 8 minutes, no waiting at charging stations, travel 450 km (guaranteed), heating and ac without worries, high trade-in value, low insurance, light on tyres, that can tow a Jet-ski, go uphill, against wind without using extra battery energy. ( I have not found an EV like that yet.
Your MG can tow a caravan, go uphill and against the wind without using extra fuel? That's one magical car, you should keep it!
Fixed it. @@yvan2563
@@yvan2563Yes selfish YOU. Not a care about the environment for your children or grandchildren. ONLY YOU! Fuck the rest!!!
First, you don't take into account the time you go to and from the gas station, and the fuel it takes. An ev charges at home. Ranges improve all the time so you'll have your 450km car in a generation or two.
Yes you will pay mo6for tires but you'll save more on other maintenance that isn't needed like oil and filter changes, brake jobs transmission service etc. And that is a lot more money.
On using energy, you can't ignore the laws of physics, you will have the same effect in a gas car.
Towing for EVs is actually less stressful as the motor can handle the extra load and there is no gearbox to wear out
For trade in values, that's market rules. The more people realize the advantages of EVs the less they will depreciate.
Look, Electric car fires occur - however Petrol Cars also combust at a 6 fold rate, just they don’t garner any traction any longer.
How should Big Boned Persons such as Lizzo fit into smaller vehicles?
I really thought with the word "RedWood" in the video description you were alluding to Tesla's new Model 2 using 100% recycled batteries to make the cars cheaper and more sustainable. Perhaps Elon has figured out how to giga press a whole car frame from recycled ice cars for a small car as well? Maybe it should be called project matchbox?
One of the biggest impediments to the adoption of EVs is the fact that home storage batteries like Powerwalls are about ten times too expensive. Overpriced home storage batteries mean that solar and batteries are out of reach of most homeowners. But folks who have solar and batteries and are currently charging at home know how great it is to drive past gas stations.
