>>21508002>electric cars can't drive in deep water>Neither can gas cars T. Retard who’s never heard of a snorkel.
>electric cars have to be occasionally refueled>So do gas carsRefueling at the gas station takes 5 to 10 minutes (not including lines) charging an EV can take on average anywhere from 20 minutes to three or more hours depending on the charging station/power local area power grid supply.
>electric cars cost a lot of money>So do gas carsEVs at any dealership regularly cost a quarter to twice as much more per vehicle than equivalent gas/diesel motor vehicle.
>electric cars are heavy>So are gas carsThe on average EV sedans and SUV tend to weigh equally to full size light trucks.
>electric cars don't do so well in extreme heat and extreme cold>Neither do gas carsLithium batteries perform very poorly in extreme temperatures, this is well documented and understood in smaller batteries and part of the reason EVs have extensively complex battery heating/cooling systems to maintain optimal temperature (approximately 84 degrees Fahrenheit for Chrysler EVs.)
>electric cars sometimes break down>So do gas carsElectric car repairs are astronomically more expensive than regular car repairs. In fact, hefty repair cost was cited as one of Hertz reasons for selling off its fleets of EV retail cars.
>electric cars can catch on fire and explode>So do gas carsThe UK has seen a 46% increase in fires related to lithium-ion batteries in 2023, compared to 2022. Currently most fire departments in the world are not equipped to deal with the severity of lithium-ion batteries.
>electric cars only last about 8 years before they get worn out and you need to buy a new one>So do gas carsHertz is selling EVs due to higher-than-expected depreciation of its electric models. The company took a $195 million charge in the previous quarter to write down the value of its EVs. It is well understood that EVs do not hold resell value like a gas/diesel vehicle.
