EVs have some benefits, but are largely outweighed by the negatives.
I have a Tesla, so I feel I can provide input.
Pros: The car is maintenance free in terms of the drivetrain, for daily commuting paired with daily charging, there’s no concern of waiting around for hours in a sketchy part of town, some businesses even offer chargers at work for reduced prices. They do get really good “fuel mileage” (~45 mpg) when compared to a gas car, plus the instant torque gives them a performance edge.
Cons: It’s a sham held up by taxpayers, because of the subsidization process, it is “affordable” whereas gas cars are actually affordable. Long range driving is possible but annoying (I calculated my costs, and saved twice the money compared to driving my wife’s Durango ~1,000 miles). But never again. Slave labor and child slave labor used to produce the batteries. Car is controlled remotely, as are most new cars, which is concerning when you consider government overreach.
I don’t hate my Tesla, but I definitely won’t buy another.
The ev scam is balls deep
Scotty has been talking about it for years
