We are moving past that phase. All of the broken games got terrible reviews and many were immediately abandoned after launch.

First of all, I'm sure the shortage of minivans is related to Covid-19 and probably due to lack of parts. There's no helping that. The problem with BEVs is that they are a very limited solution that does not work for everyone. Toy

That's likely a deficiency of your VW diesel. VW never properly designed them correctly, and that includes not meeting emissions. Other car engines likely won't have that many issues. Once you deal with the eventuality of a dead b

That's just blatantly false: https://www.gasworld.com/story/wood-to-expand-us-hydrogen-pi... In reality, hydrogen is much cheaper than expanding the grid. You are basically dismissing basic physics with nationalis

You're just being brainwashed by BEV propaganda. It is not a sustainable solution and does not work for the majority of car buyers. There will come a day when we will laugh at your decision in the same way we laugh at the diesel car. E

Redfall sold disastrously. The days of releasing an incomplete game are apparently over.

Thousands of people refuel with hydrogen regularly. There is no evidence of real danger. The problem isn't that you can't live with a BEV, it's that you don't have to. People are "fighting the last war." There

This isn't the 1970s anymore. Very few cars have major repair costs from engine problems. People are just creating an elaborate narrative of cost savings. Insurance cost data doesn't seem to bore this out. BEVs have pretty decent

Pipelines are likely the cheapest option, with trucks for last mile deliveries. The problem with "power outlets" is that they're heavily dependent on fossil fuel power plants. Since it is an unpredictable variable load, even

Redfall was an incomplete game. Graphics was the least of its problems.

I'm pretty sure the PHEV Fusion was more expensive. They also gave up on it too soon and without informing the customer that they existed. Toyota is currently selling hybrids and PHEVs without any lack of demand. The rest of your post

People who have actually driven FCEVs will tell you they work basically identical to BEVs. They make it a point to mention that there are no problems with the cars themselves. In reality, the moment hydrogen becomes comparably as cheap and

Frostbite is a weird example because they focused heavily on graphics over gameplay. It is also an FPS engine that was forced into powering an RPG, and without any real input from the developers in question. I'm sure most larger gamede

The Mirai is a converted Toyota Crown, and is basically a large luxury car. The Nexo is something like 500 lbs lighter than the Y. Also, at the ranges they provide (350-400 miles), BEVs will need to weigh closer to 5000 lbs to match that.

No, I have no such connection. A better question is why there are so many people here who "know" the future of cars, despite having zero experience in the automotive industry? This comes off as one of those cultural fad, since peo

1) That's the point. A cheap GPU for low-end gamers. Pursuing profits over expanding your business is a bad idea in the long-run. 2) They did, and more importantly did not try to stop it from happening. They could have banned bulk sale

Diesel cars at one point made up the majority of European car sales before collapsing. This is still short-sighted thinking. People really need to stop thinking about current market position and start thinking about the conclusion of each t

Never every game needs to have insane graphics. For a lot of games, “good enough” graphics is fine.

There is a secondary argument in favor of home-grown engines too. It's been very disappointing to see so many game companies abandon their own rendering technology in favor of Unreal. Terrible licensing rules might drive companies to g

Toyota does not live by the timeline of Tesla. It reminds me of the time the Germans became obsessed with diesel whereas Toyota focused on longer term projects. It did not end well for the German car companies. There's a good chance th

This is outdated crap from 20 years ago. Virtually all of the problems of dealing with hydrogen have been solved. Even GWP has been known for decades (note: It is all about indirect methane emissions, so it is not particularly real). The ma

This is BEV propaganda. Toyota's hydrogen bet has yet to be even tested. There is a very good chance that batteries get disrupted by hydrogen. In that scenario, almost everyone is decades behind Toyota.

That's a lot of wishful thinking. Certainly, in places like California and Europe, they're much higher than they can be justified. Gas taxes feed into the general fund instead. Maintenance costs are just marketing. The moment you

That sounds like a very minor problem. EV fans just love false drama it seems.

That's nothing compared to all conventional cars.

by _hypx 3y ago
Gas is usually heavily taxed. Maintenance costs are absurdly exaggerated (especially when compared to the long-term cost of battery replacement) and catalytic convertor theft is covered by insurance.

That either involve subsidies or significant sacrifices. The problem is that right now, a hybrid cost around $25k. It takes something like a decade of driving before you can reach cost parity, and that is assuming you have access to cheap e

It takes zero effort to make an EV. They are incredibly simple vehicles. People really need to let go of their EV fanboyism (and likely that includes Tesla fanboyism). In reality, if EVs were the future, Toyota would start making vast numbe

It takes no effort to make an EV. They are the simplest type of car imaginable. They even pre-date ICE cars.

Hydrogen in a car would be gas the whole time. It is just compressed high enough that the tanks can fit in a car.
