In some way, this is actually useful as people need to know the differences and possible new risks with an EV. On the other hand, it’s still biased.
- b112 3y agoIt's not biased to report "car brand X becomes useless because of temps, unlike all other cars" That is indeed a story, and should caution those in certain environments not to buy that brand. It also shows a lack of testing, to sell cars into a market, where they won't work reliably for part of the year. And a completely different tact, a car breaking down is expected. An entire production model being flawed, and defective, is not. This is not even slightly biased.
- kramerger 3y agoThere have been multiple stories about EVs getting stuck in snow then running out of battery and being towed. But the particular cases where the car itself has broken down seem to be limited to Teslas. Even in the heavily moderated Tesla Club Sweden forum people have started questioning the reliability of these cars in the winter.
