Yup. You see this ALL THE TIME with anti-BEV articles. The arguments being made are in bad faith. It's not that the individual cares but rather they are looking to give BEVs a black eye.
Another fun one is how whenever you talk about BEVs, there's all the sudden someone that lives in the arctic circle that has a 12 hour commute (Not hyperbole, I actually saw someone make this claim in an argument). It isn't good enough to say "Well then perhaps BEVs aren't for you" instead "The technology isn't there and nobody can use them".
It's just astroturfing or people trying to win a culture war.
- A4ET8a8uTh0 3y agoHey now. The governments of the world are trying to mandate those so even bad faith arguments have to be addressed. You can't just say 'those are not for you then' anymore. Amusingly, EV folks seem to be telling ICE folks what to do. FWIW, waiting on sidelines for some of this stuff to mature ( oddly, I am not talking about range, but about the incessant subscription push.. that trend has to die ).
- Retric 3y agoGovernments aren’t mandating everyone globally adopt current EV’s with current charging infrastructure. Norway is the only country with a 100% new car mandate before 2030, and they are already 87% EV’s so it’s hardly a major change for them.
