Call me cynical but I doubt all those companies claiming they'll go "green" or "100% electric" in X years really do that for the environment or are really serious about it.
There is no economical reason to do so dude to the fact that electric cars cost too much, mainly due to the batteries for which the price can only increase if there is a market of a billion users. And except for the high end market which Tesla occupies the most, nobody has the money for that.
Not to say I'm against the idea, coming from a place where hydroelectricity is king I just can't wait to get my first electric car, but I am skeptical.
- rocqua 6y agoI think that there is a decent chance this might happen. If at the highest decision making levels we finally start taking global warming seriously, this kind of move makes a lot of sense. Similarly, we are moving towards a situation where the majority opinion could actually turn against ICEs. It seems highly forward thinking to me. There are big barriers sure, but there are also some really big forces that will be pushing this. There are also some relevant tipping points that might happen, where it makes sense to make electric the default just because so many other things are already electric.
