It's over, suck it up, deal with the consequences. You now have the enormous public tax bill you accrued for cheerleading this transition to Green cars. Did you switch from steak to chicken and ground beef a couple of decades ago? Now it's time to switch to breakfast cereal and other processed GMO Corn products.

There is no escape you know, you have to pay for this shit. And with the new A.I. bubble, a unique US mania btw, you have to pay up as well. Not just higher power bills, but higher taxes and reduced pension payments, all going to the corporate oligarchs feeding at the trough. Jeff Bezos is a bald headed nobody but he has you by the balls and every overpriced order you make on Amazon just enriches him more and more. But hey, what would I know? I'm just the Aussie who predicted all this from the beginning and tried to warn you. But you wouldn't listen... You chose to believe the TV set instead.

A drop in the bucket compared to the losses from the battcar sector. Once Tesla rolls over it will push it into the high trillions. The end of the oil age and they had to waste untold 'oil' building this fiasco. Well that's the good ol USofA for ya, they started the bubble, they start all this crap so it's only fair they they suffer the most from it's fallout.
Losses in Australia? Just a thousand odd chargers and whatever the middle class yuppies wasted on them. Electric cars make up less than 2% of the vehicles on Australian roads. Negligible.

Yes that's right, it took an aussie to point all this out, but to no avail, the Battcar junkies just doubled down this year, sucked in by the Big Savings before the tax credits expired. What's next? A mile by mile charge to use the roads of course, can't let these rabbits off that lightly. It's already being implemented in the UK. Elon just has to give the government access to "Your" data and you're stitched up like a cheap beanie baby

Vietnam was like a little china, it's Battcars doing well overseas with the Green dreamers.

VinFast’s third-quarter loss widened to 24 trillion dong ($910.85 million) from 13.25 trillion dong a year earlier, according to the company’s Friday earnings report. The company’s shares dropped more than 5% in premarket trading following the announcement.

The quarter’s negative 56.2% gross margin represents a dramatic deterioration from the already-troubling negative 24% margin reported in Q3 2024. The company attributed the worsening economics to “higher warranty provision rates and cost of vehicle sold.”

CHINA

This was the one kubby was pushing forward two years ago when the rest of the World's sales were cratering. He didn't come right out and say it, just hid the info in "Global EV sales". Well they were still selling lots, but now they have reached PeakEV. That point where everyone in a nation who wants one, has one, and the rest just give them the middle finger. Don't forget, all the sales data comes from the Chinese who are bold faced Liars when it comes to their statistics, so cut all the figures in half.

Electric vehicle sales in China grew 32% between January and September this year, less than half of last year’s 83% surge. That slowdown signals a clear shift: the gas-to-electric transition has plateaued. That's ya keyword Timmy, arriving at PeakEV.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '[')b]China’s electric vehicle powerhouse is starting to lose some of its spark. After years of explosive growth fueled by generous subsidies and sky-high demand, the once-dominant market is now feeling the weight of its own success. Sales are slowing, major cities have hit saturation, and global regulations are tightening. What was once a runaway success story is now entering a new, more uncertain phase—one defined by consolidation, strategy shifts, and a fight to maintain global influence.

If only I'd been in charge of this, I could have saved the world trillions of dollars in stranded assets. I would have deported Elon Muck back in 2008 and told the Battcar makers they best not engage in any false marketing or they'd be fined heavily. Stupid Americans and their bubble economy
