[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 5489259, member: 24302"] You can't seem to grasp that unless the government controls the market, which would likely doom it, the increased demand in everything needed to build hundreds of millions of EV's, and generate enough power to run them, will increase prices exponentially, not decrease prices. You apparently didn't watch the video I posted that pointed out the customer base that buys Teslas is primarily made up of wealthy liberals who want to virtue signal their helping to save the planet. The same liberals who are deeply offended by Elon Musk exposing what has been going on with Twitter. There isn't a cheap Tesla. And there won't be a cheap fleet of robotaxis which are quickly profitable because the demand for everything needed to build them will be sky high. There's no economy of scale in limited supply. This is basic economics but somehow you think they'll manage it all somehow because they want to. This is the very reason why Toyota, which has the resources to do everything Tesla is doing, is more focused on hybrids. They think the future in EV's is limited. They'll offer some models, but mostly they're doing hybrids because fuel economy and lower vehicle costs in their opinion will win out. [/QUOTE]
