Remember my ev city cars pictures from Europe.Remember in the early days of this thread, we were talking about EV's and autonomous driving vehicles, will allow them to require less safety features and maybe they could be made from extruded recycled plastic materials, well as the guy says they have gone the other way and added the weight of a battery to an already heavy car.
Even my Kona which is a small car weighs nearly 2 ton.
Obviously it is a work in progress, but again Govt's need to be realistic with ADR rules surrounding EV's, if they want them to be practicle city vehicles that people will buy.
To get better range they need to reduce weight and size, after all people ride motorbikes and small scooters around, so cars like the Renault Twizy should be allowed to be sold.
It is like everything the Governments do, poorly thought out and poorly implemented.
City cars need to be re classified, so that smaller more practicle ones can be introduced IMO.
Europe, Japan and China have restarted development of the internal combustion engine.
EV sales are falling.
Are EV manufacturers going in the wrong direction?

No wonder we’re in such a mess, people just jump on anything that supports their narrative without thinking about research and responsibility.

So please explain John: i have not even watched the video but IMHO, your reaction is "misguided".That’s exactly how the woke left responded to any kind of protest against disinformation.
Make a claim with dubious evidence, and then shut anyone down that question it.
Are is facts true or false.
Anything else is unrelated BS

Are facts and number quoted wrong.?
Anyway, you are living the EV dream , good on you.
Because i see an attack on a man, shoot the messenger, and whatever the man, the idea, the subject it is wrong and disappointing from you : you are not usually at that level.Then why are you commenting?
Blah blah blah. You are doing the same thing as what I mentioned above, and you don’t even realise.Because i see an attack on a man, shoot the messenger, and whatever the man, the idea, the subject it is wrong and disappointing from you : you are not usually at that level.
And the reason i specified i had not even watched..i do not really care what he says , whether i agree or not.
But hey, you are free to play the man, our media are doing that endlessly.

Thanks, that could explain the leaf indeedTesla sedan Model 3 as per above post also, looks in trouble.
You can buy the MG64 essence which is the top of the range version that has everything for $47,000-$53,000. Or the shorter range basic version excite for $35,000.
Very competitive with Tesla and Hyundai whom I rate the top two non Chinese competitors.
Where is Toyota?
New 3rd generation Nissan leaf due this year so sales may be a run out.
Yes a friend is in the panel beating business, he showed me a video he took of a paddock load of Teslas.Got the following email from Tesla Oz.
Must have a surfeit of Model 3's.
Pity that if I was going to buy a Tesla, it would be a model Y.

That was in 2021, Stellantis since then is in more $#!t than Ned Kelly.
Good point, I think things have changed a bit since then, the whole EV scene is slowing a lot.It was more about Tesla making most of its profits from selling credits.
