Thanks for posting, but your information is incorrect. You keep referring the Chevy 'Volt'. It's not an EV. It's a PHEV. It burns gas. And it's discontinued. I think you meant to say Chevy Bolt EV, which is a great EV. I have a Model 3, it has a 55kWh battery. I level 2 charge at home, charging is not an issue. I usually charge once a week. Long distance trips however, you need to rely on the Supercharger network, 150kW chargers, charging the car to 80% in less then 30 minutes. Again, charging not really an issue as long as you have Superchargers along your route. IMHO, I wouldn't buy a new ICE vehicle today. It would be like buying a Beta VCR tape player.... kinda short sighted, you're buying a legacy product. But I think there is good value in buying used ICE vehicles , sure they still burn carbon, but they would do the job, as long as the cost was low. Otherwise, maybe lease an ICE, if you have to, so you can give it back when you don't need it anymore. 👌

I waited though the entire video for you to tell the truth about why so many Americans wont make the jump to electric vehicles and you didn't. One of the biggest reasons many Americans wont make the jump is because the cars are the embodiment of big brother. All Tesla cars are connected to the Tesla super computer and when it crashes all Tesla's stop. All Tesla's are monitored in real time meaning at any given time your location and travel plans are monitored. Your car can be controlled, every movement logged, and since its not your cell phone you cant even decide to leave it at home. There is no real need to attach the operation of electric vehicles back to the manufacturer so this monitoring must be the point.

Until electric can beat gas on efficiency, cost and refuel in around the same amount of time....it won't happen. The mass market will not make any significant changes. People do what is the easiest/cheapest route. You don't have to force what works the best. If it works better the free market economy will move on it's own. Nobody had to be forced to buy a car over a horse, cars were better option for the every day consumer. Electric will not replace gas until a better battery is invented, storage will always be the enemy of electrical power. When enough people switch to electric, people will be stuck at charging stations for hours as people line up to charge their vehicles, the people at the front take a full hr to charge.... 🤣

The irony here is that Tesla invited all car manufactors to join the SuperCharger network, but they wouldn’t do that to hinder Tesla to succeed. Tesla is now provining they will make it without a common collaboration on fast DC chargers. Car manufactorer countries such as Germany and France even changed the common EU standard to create even bigger strain on Tesla. So reality is that we have the poor charging network we deserve. If it was not for Tesla going forward and proove they will wipe out all competition alone, other manufactorer wouln’t produce electric cars at all if they could choose that. They was even fooling everybody with this hydrogen bluff for the longest time to make as much uncertainty about battery electric car as possible. VW dieselgate, criminal Audi directors and all other manufactorer actually doing the same crimes, I think they deserve to be punished hard in the merketplace by Tesla.

One obvious solution that wasn’t mentioned in the video is that an alternative way to charge the electric vehicle is the way that is done in China by simply replacing the discharged battery with a fully charged one. In that system, you would take your ev to an ev charging station where they would replace your depleted battery for one that is already charged. The changing of electric batteries shouldn’t take longer than you would in filling up your gas tank with a conventional internal combustion engine. Then the ev charging stations would fully charge all the depleted batteries that were exchanged for the ones that were already charged.

david14 שעות לפני

Thanks for a great "glass is half empty" video. You make a lot of good points, but every technology change is accompanied with inconvenience. As an EV owner (Chevy Bolt), I have found that the challenges you mention are all surmountable with a little bit of planning and forethought. Sure, I'd love to have more range, but, personally, I don't mind stopping for a 1 to 1-2/2 hr charge every 200 miles or so. I take a walk, and get a meal. I realize that not everyone can do this, but I love it! You make a few points that really don't hold water with me: First, and most obvious, you refer to a "Volt" in several places; that's the older Chevy PHEV, the Bolt is the pure EV. You also claim that the "Volt" (actually Bolt), does not have fast charge capacity, but my 2017 absolutely does, and I use it on all long trips (some early models didn't, but they all do now). You talk about DC fast charger stations being expensive, costing between $250-350K, but how does that compare to the many millions of dollars, increased footprint, and environmental damage caused by building a gas station?! You claim that Tesla would need to build 31K fast charging stations to meet demand, but ignore the fact that there are several other fast charging companies installing tens of thousands of new stations per year at this point. Checkpoint, EV-Go, Electrify America, etc. are all installing, and Teslas can use them as well (with some exceptions). Finally, range anxiety will start to fall by the wayside in about a year or two, as new EV's approach 500 mile range and faster charging times ... and those will only increase with each passing year. So ... yes, there are challenges, but the advantages of EVs are already so great that I will never again consider buying an ICE based car, and that seems to be the conclusion of anyone who's ever driven one. Though I appreciate your concerns, I see the glass as 3/4 full, rather than half empty.

Pacific Neuroscience Institute22 שעות לפני

Main issue with this video is the assumption that everybody who owns EVs wants or needs to drive long distances. The vast majority of urban commutes are less than 40 miles. Hence, charging can be handled at home or work charging stations. The calculation should be made of EV and ICE owners to see average daily mileage and what the demand would be. Infrastructure improvement is necessary, but likely not at the vast capacity suggested in this video

The government doesn't need to build charging stations. But they should incentivize standardizing plugs. The thing that sucks is that Tesla's plug design is much superior in both current capacity and simplicity compared to the other legacy plugs, but Tesla won't give away its plug patent. Nor will it allow third parties to buy Superchargers with their own capital and participate in the Tesla Supercharger network. Elon says that Tesla's main mission is to accelerate the adaption of electric vehicles. They could have made a huge step in that direction by using their market muscle to get everyone on the planet on the same DC plug standard. And it wouldn't have cost them hardly anything.

@wendoverproductions great production, but riddled with errors. The Bolt (not Volt) *does* have DC Fast Charge capability, just the cheaper trim doesn’t. Similarly, the Leaf has different trims, the base range is ~150, the + trim offers over 200. As others have pointed out, the Volt is a PHEV that has been discontinued. All Level 1 and 2 Charging (the majority of EV infrastructure) is AC. DC Fast chargers can be paired (usually are), like the CPE250 you referenced, thus delivering twice the amount of kW if just one car is using the stations. Nit-picking aside, the biggest hurdle for infrastructure is developers who continue building sites w/o the adequate electrical service to easily retrofit EV stations... soooooo much money would be saved by simply changing the 208/240V building standard to 480V, and pre-running conduit/wire *before* laying asphalt/concrete. Regardless, the vast majority of Charging will take place at the residence... a car is like a house cat, over 90% of its life, it is napping or lounging (parked doing absolutely nothing, or in the case of an EV, charging). J-plug and CCS plugs will win, but there are compelling V2G advantages to CHAdeMO, but this too will evolve. If you haven’t heard of V2G, I think it’ll revolutionize the consumer + utility relationship. Lastly, I’d highly recommend listening to Tony Seba lectures to catch a glimpse at what’s up ahead.

OK, here’s something I have been telling people for years in regards to electric cars. Suppose all electric cars were built to accept a standard battery pallet that could be easily removed from the vehicle and a fully charged pallet installed in a matter of minutes. We already have a network of fill stations throughout the country in the form of gas stations who could have a charging bay where charged battery pallets would be kept. You pull in and release the locks on your battery pallet. The attendant rolls out the depleted pallet, which goes onto the charging rack and rolls a fresh, charged pallet into your car. You pay and drive out. Possibly taking no longer than it does to fill your gas tank. Until it is that fast, Americans just ain’t gonna sit around waiting for a car to charge.

To say that EVs are comparable in cost to their IC engine counterparts is BS. A Chevy Bolt or Nissan Leaf costs in excess of $30,000 - 35,000 USD. A comparable subcompact car with an IC engine is about $20,000 USD fully loaded. That 10 to 15,000 dollar difference will buy a lot of gasoline even at the Biden regime inflated price we're now paying. I believe EVs are the future, but the government shouldn't be in the business of picking winners and losers. When it does the winners are big businesses and the same politicians who reap the campaign donations, while the cost falls on the taxpayer who is also forced to pay as the consumer. Thus the taxpayer/consumer gets to pay twice for the same benefit while the politicians corporate cronies reap the profits for little or no cost and the politicians themselves simply rake in the cash and call themselves "statesmen."
