Fifteen years ago if someone had told you that soon you'd be watching TV on a phone a few mm thick, you probably would have said, "not anytime soon."
An average home uses 1000 kw/h per month.
A Tesla can be had with a 100 kw/h battery which gives it 500 km of range. So, two full charges per month increases a homes electricity consumption by just 20%.
Science marches on.
yes, one car, now try that on scale
billion cars out there, virtually none are EV
The fast charge does 80% in 30 mins according to hydro. I think the high capacity batter with Tesla is 2hr charge time with their rapid charge stations, and they all come with a trickle charger for when you stop for the night.
yeah, and the line up at charging stations or do you think everyone who ventures beyond their home is going to be willing to take 3 days to get a province over
and anyone who lives outside the cities
trucks, work vehicles
your assuming everyone only travels for an hour a day
not to mention it is not practical for large vehicles
I suggest you travel to other parts of the globe to see how much EVs are taking off.
Just came back from a 4 country Euro tour and was blown away how many EVs are on the road.
179,270 EVs were sold globally in May 2019. The technology is here and only getting better. Much like smartphones, flat screen TVs and every other breakthrough. Change like this doesn’t happen overnight. Let’s look back in 3 years and reassess.
yeah, again, reality, billion cars out there, Chinese, 3rd world have not even begun to live like us
Norway, only reason they are being bought there, if you want a non EV, you are taking it up the ass so hard in taxes your ass would look like a Kardasian's
yes, we were going to be flying in cars by now too!
and the world was going to end in 2010, no, 2015, no now it is going to end in 2031, right
Ha ha, you couldn’d be more wrong

The internal combustion engine will be phased out in your lifetime.
again, physics
basic math
scale
reality
green energy, coal still king in most of the world, oil too
despite billions upon billions in subsidies
Germany, still on coal, China too, India too, last two, top polluters along with US
decades away from getting off coal
2050 is a pipe dream
you want to save the environment
how many Chinese, Indian, African, Latino are you willing to kill
cause they are the fastest going populations who all want to live like fat Americans, which the world, environment cannot handle
Africa alone, virtually no electricity, look at the light pollution maps, it is virtually dark there
almost a billion there now, again, scale
physics, the amount of solar and wind, even hydro, you cannot scale it up for 7 billion
the tech is not there, it is a long way off, we will be long dead
Musk is a conman
look at the subsidies Tesla has received
they cannot even produce a reasonable amount of vehicles a yr
look at solar, never seen a news report yet that does not state that it will take at least 15yrs to payback
notice how they never mention the life-cycle of the panels
think batteries are any different
until they come up with a way to store electricity, on scale, your delusions are pointless
