That is simply not true.
All of the manufacturers apart from say Toyota have made EV the number one priority for their companies. Mainly because of the impending EU regulations on emissions.
Porsche has the best EV car on the market. BMW sacked their CEO because of a lack of EV progress, Mercedes has most of their innovation going into the EQC series. There are stories everywhere on how the companies are rapidly shifting to EV.
- taygetea 7y agoI keep seeing people in these comments saying that the Taycan is better than the Model S, but I'm not sure what they're seeing. It has a razor-thin acceleration advantage and can manage that more than once on a charge, but it does that at the cost of being a very expensive and cramped sports car design. If you're optimizing for track performance, sure, but that's not a very common use case, as opposed to the usefulness of a longer range, more spacious, cheaper sedan.
