If they (BYD, Nio, etc.) get into our market -- which they're currently artificially limited from competing in (because, you know, free markets!), they're going eat our lunch.
And we will deserve it. Soundly.
I am ashamed of where we are headed on so many fronts.
Let's be clear -- the thing that solved this was actively heating/cooling the battery packs. The failure of the leaf batteries was due to being passive.
Battery failure is between 1-3%.. akin to engine failure. They are finding LFP packs retain their health for far longer than thought as well.
Big oil told you wrong.
This entire story both sucks and blows.
Another non-democratic voter concerned with democratic politics. We're ok bud, no need to worry or be a sore winner.

You can get a Model 3 with 363 miles of range for 35k if you can put aside any bad feelings about Tesla.
How does that translate to wealthy?
Same here.. going on 6 years now. Dual EV household. Just traded in my Model 3 for an F-150 Lightning and my wife has a Rivian R1S.
Love talking EVs. Love convincing people even more -- but usually a tour and a test drive accomplishes that without words
Yes, Fuck Elon. Done with Tesla until the board does the needful.
You seem to believe this, but plenty of us are doing just fine... dual EV household here. Definitely not screwed.
nothing new here.. you can also add any drive to the database as compatible. Though I'm sure they'll disable this now too.
I believe they call it 'PagerDuty'
Solving those barriers is not the role of companies. Solving those barriers is the role of the State and of education.
If america has a vicious "putting people into boxes" problem, maybe they should start solving that problem by providing universal education, not dump the massive imbalance onto companies and then blame them for not taking care of the issue.
Besides, it would actually helped if america also stopped with this racial class bollocks. You are all americans. They constantly remind people that these boxes exist, then say "oh you should not see these boxes". How about you stopping talking about the freaking boxes? All that DEI does is to prominently remind everybody not only that these boxes exist, but if you belong to one of these boxes, you might get a cookie, or not. Gee, I wonder how it's possiblthat this increases inter-box tensions?
We tried that. The people who despite cancel culture talked about Critical Race Theory for an entire election cycle and effectively cancelled that education.
How is Chase going to identify if a Zelle transfer is social media related? I built a fence and split the cost 3-ways with the adjoining neighbors who paid me via Zelle. I've used Zelle to get payment for items I've sold in person to people I know. Most of these people I also have contact via social media.
Obviously they can see the transactions on both ends, they'll be looking for a correlation of a receipt of multiple payments with the same amount etc. and then some sort of correlation to a product.
The newer ones charge alot faster.. i just take it off before I get in the shower and it's full by the time I'm ready to leave.
