EV have dominated in snow racing. ICE cars just can't compete with the consistent toque EV produce.
Jehu, you should have a chat with Casey Putch about his Genius Garage project. Check it out on YouTube!
you forgot a big point if you care disappointed about Toyota and its Prius line progress to hdydrogen cause GM had had an EV1 from 1992 or so onwards and they literally did nothing, they throw them into the dumpster and killed it.
🔙🔝🔜🔚
the future might be EV, but after buying 3 we are now at the point to switch to hybrid with a big battery cause that is the only real world solution in 1 car to tow anything and get real mileage in a good quality car which means: no tesla
We gave our Tesla back due to quality issues all over the place … never seen such a worse build quality running from the line to the customer.
But the worst is that tesla service was not able nor willing to fix it once and forever, no, they thought, the more often I have to drive the 200 km to the service center the less they will have to deliver.
Pick an Audi e-tron and you see the quality inherent even though it is a mixed plattform not designed for EV.
Anyway, we will wait with future EV investments and a lot in the neighbourhood are not even willing to buy so the worst case will happen in 2022 or 2023 when all the european owned plants have their EVs but their will not be enough buyers and the production will pile up here and even in China cause european manufacturers own chinese ev plants or have a major equity and have a keen interest to deliver china made cars into the EU cause the european brands have the dealer and service network.
Bob Lutz is still one of those great car guys who stands like an oak for something, his opinion and way and he fought for it while the other were simply average or garbage – all the GM managers that were never managers nor makers if you look at how poorly they behaved and performed with the german brand OPEL, the biggest one in Germany back in the 60s, far bigger in marketshare and revenue than VW in Germany, but their mangement and development strategy had been a nightmare for customers and employees cause they were unable to stop the downward spiral even though they had a great engine with the GSI 16V machine and 150 PS mid 80s. Finally they had to sell it to the french after 88 years or so GM management had ruled Opel (except those war years).
In need of batteries really bad for off grid system. Please let me know if you have any throw away ones. Anything is better then the deep cycle battery I have now that won't take charge anymore.
