Tesla is sitting on mountains of unsold inventory. Same story as every other major BEV maker. BEVs continue to look more and more like a fad.

It's funny how many people hate Elon Musk, and have realized that he is a massive fraudster and liar, but still believe his lies about BEVs.

Here's a hint: It's all a big lie. Including BEVs. They are a greenwashing scam and gimmicks to be sold to the rich. No different than hyperloop or whatever.

The only reason why BEVs exist in significant numbers at all is due to truly vast amounts of subsidies. I don't think people fully realize how much it is. It's more than any other technology by a huge margin.

Polestar, Fisker, Lucid, Rivian, etc., they're all in the same boat. They're making expensive BEVs in a world that is losing interest in this fad. Eventually, probably all of them will shut down or shift to some other business.

Tesla, alongside most of the rest of the BEV industry, is headed for disaster. People simply don't want BEVs, and BEVs aren't a serious solution to climate change. The whole thing is an expensive distraction and reality is start to knock on the door.

Reminder that the market is hemorrhaging cash on BEVs. This is not a viable business. It will scale down, regardless of what anyone tells you.

Reminder that large scale adoption of BEVs is still a fantasy. We simply don't have the grid capacity, and building it will take a long time. And if we did build it, we will find out that the cost is extremely high, and it completely kills off the notion that BEVs save money.

Reminder that the difference between BEVs and PHEVs in terms of emissions is much smaller than the BEV promoters have claimed. In fact, it is arguable that small PHEVs are the greenest cars you can buy today. In reality, BEVs are only one type of green car, not the only kind. And the obsession with only BEVs is just a fad. Even a cult at times.

Japanese automakers were simply paying attention to the facts, not buying into a fad. As a result, they are making massive profits while the rest of the industry losses billions on their BEV programs.

Mercedes-Benz is now the next company to scale back BEV projects. As I keep on saying, BEVs are a fad. They are an expensive and unsustainable type of vehicle, and cannot be the future of transportation. It mirrors the past green fad of biofuel powered cars, and it will be abandoned in the same way.

@leffie For commuter cars, it should not be a truck at all. For small load vehicles, you're basically talking about an NEV based truck, but those aren't things you can drive on the highway.

Trucking in general is going to need a chemical fuel to be viable. Whether it's e-fuels or hydrogen in the future, it simply cannot be a BEV.

As everyone could've predicted, GM is forced to walk back it's all-BEV truck lineup. It's one thing to jump into a fad; at least there are government mandates to worry about. But BEV trucks make zero sense and are basically unusable for their intended purpose. As a result, they will have to build PHEV versions. Eventually, they'll realize they'll have to stop making BEV trucks altogether.

BEVs are functionally unfixable if the battery dies. The cost of battery replacement exceeds the cost of the car itself. As a result, they are going to lead a huge shortfall in available transportation options for the lower class. In reality, BEVs are toys for the rich. They are not serious transportation ideas.
