why would you get gas? electric vehicles are so much more comfortable
Uhh not everyone can just drop 40 grand on an electric car.
hah yeah that’s about the response i expected.
Nowhere did say car, i’m talking about electric mopeds, e-bikes, and e-scooters. There are countries other than the US.
Because they are not practical? Not to mention they are a privacy and freedom nightmare
Sorry to be the one but the privacy and freedom issue is independent of powertrain. Some earlier models before the automakers went upmarket with EVs were perfectly normal. Now the tablet-on-dash, telematics and other data collection has become pervasive in EVs but now it’s in full-force on ICE vehicles for quite some time. A Mach E and Colorado can both be, and have been, bricked by a bad OTA update.
Practicality though also will vary. If people were used to charging at home all the time, telling people that they have to visit a business to refuel every X days or Y miles would seem odd just because it’s quite different than people think is normal.
