r2d2 Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 Tesla and Chinese competitor BYD both reported a plummet in sales in a further signal the electric car industry is flailing - after Apple also recently pulled the plug on its own EV project. The two firms, two of the biggest sellers of EVs worldwide, have been forced to drop their prices to increase demand for their cars as they battle fiercer competition, particularly in China. Almost every model made by firm BYD has had its sale price cut, accompanied by the slogan 'electricity is cheaper than oil' - as a price war continues to rage in China, which is the largest EV market in the world. There have been warnings for some time from the traditional car industry that average buyers are being put off buying electric cars because they are more expensive than petrol-powered alternatives and because of the recharge times and poor charging infrastructure. This comes after carmakers from Mercedes-Benz to Ford announced they were delaying or scrapping further electric vehicles (EVs) as demand slowed in Britain and abroad.

Govt can't incentivize forever, you want them to be profitable on their own, other than Tesla no one is successful in this, that too with huge govt money. And EVs are not practical with current charging times. With so many gas stations you still spend 5 to 10 mins. Imagine if all EVs are on road and it takes an hour for each vehicle, Long lines everywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
