Car Companies haven't bothered with Electric for 100 years

There were Electric cars before there was Petrol cars

Tesla is 100 years of catch up

in a short space of time

it doesn't matter if it loses money (it won't)

@Broo TulsiGang 2024 πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ electric motors and batteries have not been stagnant in the past 100 years. Car companies havent bothered with EVs for a reason: batteries are a terrible way to power a car.

Fact is tesla is already losing money, tons of it, and they lose more with every new product they introduce.

They are flat packing laptop batteries

but look at this thing

The bodywork is the battery

And?

2018-06-18 13:51:30 UTC  

I mean it looks awesome.

2018-06-18 13:51:52 UTC  

But unless they charge a few million dollars for it, it will never make money

It's the bleading edge

Many Corollas paid for that

I cant tell if you are trying to make a point about EVs or changing the subject.

2018-06-18 14:07:20 UTC  

I am okay with the latter btw, i just dont know if thats what you are doing

Mate I want for myself a V8 Bullit Mustang

For the wife I want a Electric shit box cus she thinks a car is the same as a washing machine

2018-06-18 14:34:24 UTC  

Personally i would like to see more through the road hybrids.

2018-06-18 14:34:56 UTC  

Like a mustang with a mid displacement 4.6L powering the rear wheels and a 200hp electric motor powering the front

2018-06-18 14:35:12 UTC  

Heck it could still have a manual transmission.

that's one foot in the grave

For me V8, I'll enjoy it

For Mrs Normie

Eh

2018-06-18 14:39:03 UTC  

Hybrids are where the market is headed.

electric run-about

2018-06-18 14:39:15 UTC  

Hybrids and dual clutch transmissions

2018-06-18 14:39:42 UTC  

Which conveniently enough means that manuals might survive.

nope it's one or the other

2018-06-18 14:41:17 UTC  

Not...really.

Hybrids won't last

2018-06-18 14:41:33 UTC  

Hilarious
