This. ICE cars will still be available on the used and import market with the infrastructure for them still after the 15 years this is implemented
I'm all for making the transition the problem is
Honestly, I live in a swamp, we hit 90-100% humidity days here in the summer for weeks... Driving in a car without AC, even with the windows down is a nightmare.
So in that regards electric is not so different than burning more gas with the A/C. With tech improving and charging stations built into existing infrastructure you will be at the same end.
Nice, sadly electric will be out of my grasp for a very long time, but it's good to know it'll still be good
100% agreed. This is once again something that isn't even taking rural people into account one bit.
And people living in apartments. EV cars are a no-go for people like me because of this
I would be disappointed as well if I had a community that is given a 14 year heads up but doesn't make any changes in infrastructure.
This I can see but i have noticed that complexes have been implementing electric chargers already. Now to get a landlord that owns a few converted units on board would be the issue. Still charging elsewhere off site is still an option, similar to getting y'know gas.
lol nope.
Especially here in Canada where AWD is pretty much required when compared to RWD. You are looking at $65K for AWD.
When comparing it to one of the most popular AWD car here is the CrossTrek.

That's nice but it has nothing to do with your original comment.
I think it depends on your situation.
I may not fully agree with their takes but the average new car price is hitting the high $38,000. Canada is showing similar numbers. Not to forget that there are other actors making vehicles at a lower price range available. And used market being very good for EV.
What a Kia Rio? That is the only fully loaded model you are getting at that price. Which I may add is definitely not what you would envision as fully loaded. I should know.

That really changes nothing about the poster''s take or about the reality of the situation. Eventually sure, the infrastructure will be in a better place but being snide about people choosing not to right now just screams naivete and/or privilege.
So are you saying that you do not disagree with them but just do not like the way it was said?
I'm saying they are suggesting something that is not practical for a very large number of people. Agreeing or disagreeing has nothing to do with it since that's just the way it is.
Agreed besides the high luxury range. Since a lot of space is going to not be necessary with the physical size of batteries being smaller than current engine bays I can see a lot of shrinking. Folks will have to get used to short hoods, not every vehicle is going to have dual trunks.North American drivers need to start feeling comfortable with cars this size to get EV prices down too:
And give up their hard on for big size cars.
Performance cars will probably be least affected by the change to EVs. The jump in prices won't be as huge. Their buyers most likely own a home and a place to charge them. It's easy to drown out the grumbling from people against electrification with the performance numbers.
What? Since when? lol Yeah, only the filthy rich buy new cars.
