Yet another reason that people don't want to buy EV's. It takes 5 minutes to fill up a gas tank and there are gas stations all over the place.

>Given that a lack of public charging is turning many consumers off to EVs, according to multiple surveys, this is a major issue. Both Electrify America and EVgo said they are rapidly expanding their networks to, as EVgo's Rafalson put it, "skate ahead of the puck," trying to make sure there are enough chargers to meet future demand... "I think what you're seeing is demand for public fast charging is really skyrocketing," said Sara Rafalson, executive vice president for policy at EV charging company EVgo, "and I would say we've been really at an inflection point in the last year, year and a half, with demand...."

ROFL. Fucking faggots. I can fill my tank in under 5 mins and I'm off. Jihad Juice for the WIN.

No. EVs are ruining EVs. They're garbage.

I was unaware charging stations slowed the charge rate at 80%.. as if I needed another reason to not own an EV..

If you charge from 40% to 80% and you assume 20% of that is basically non-existent due to the finicky nature of battery capacity (i.e. battery degradation and the weather), you're left with 20% of the expected operating range. Thats only suitable for short commutes in a large population area.

It is a "safety" and "longevity" feature. With these huge lithium based batteries you should basically never charge to 100% unless you have to. It is actually bad for the battery and will damage it. That is also part of why it starts to "slow charge" after reaching 80%, any extra "heating" of the batter (which happens while it is charging) is also bad for the battery and its lifespan.

Ill stick to my gas tank getting filled to full in 5 minutes. Oh, and how energy prices have been? It costs either the same or MORE to charge a EV which was what they tried to sell you on "It will cost 5$ to charge your car" no, its going to cost just as much as filling your tank. The energy has to come from somewhere and that somewhere is often a COAL or Natural Gas power plant since we think Nuclar is evil still.

lol No it's not. This is an excuse to push for more EVs because it means limited mobility, which helps to keep people under control because of (a) limited range, (b) far greater cost of ownership, and (c) perpetual fucking surveillance of individuals' location and activities for those remaining who can afford it.

The entirety of this EV shitshow is one of several panicked reactions to the fact that Hillary the Psychopathic Hag lost to Trump in 2016.

Boo fucking hoo.

The mere connotation of non-jew Nationalism terrifies (((them))) so much that they've concocted several gimmicks to try control Whites, imagining that their idiotic schemes and desperate need for control would somehow stop what they know can't be stopped.

That's what mUh CLiMatE cRiSiS and EVs are all about.

I drive a 20-ish year old vehicle. I work on it myself most of the time and just had to put some new tires on it. I am not giving this thing up. Even if the engine blows ill probably just get a new (used) one put in so long as the rest of the body/mechanics are working well. EV's cost too much and are extremely inconvenient.

There is a reason why MOST ev owners are saying they wont buy another one and want to get rid of the one they have.

Unfortunately for them, an EV is inherently worthless.

If I could buy one cheap that has at least a 150 mile range and I could charge it at home I would consider having one as the "errand runner". Otherwise, I have no need or want for one. I don't live in the extremely concentrated east or west and things like this are just not useful for someone like me, or most of the general population that "drives" as a whole.
