I think you should go on Zoloft adam, it would mellow you out, take the edge of life you know. You're a very angry old boomer and you have no reason to be. You own your own home, have at least 2 cars, a wife, you're not alone in life. Where the anger comes from I have no idea but Zoloft will help I assure you. If not for yourself do it for those around you.

After BYD Price War Accelerated, Goldman Says: "We Are Sellers Here"

Now this is Big news.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he EV space took a hit overnight after China's BYD—Tesla's top rival—announced sweeping price cuts of up to 34% across nearly two dozen models. This intensified an already brutal global multi-year price war amid continued softening demand.

Bloomberg reported that BYD slashed prices on 22 of its electric and plug-in hybrid models by as much as 34% in an effort to revive demand... Goldman analyst Shubham Ghosh told clients, "We were sellers of BYD here and also caught some selling in SOE banks."

you're the quintessential Biden voter adam, you'd believe anything as long a US government department puts its stamp on it. I have already explained here numerous times that a gasoline burning hybrid car is not an electric car. What else did Biden tell you? That the US would have tens of thousands of new chargers by now, the inflation reduction act

Bidenites like you believe men are women, illegal immigrants are peaceful refugees and that whatever the establishment defines as EV is EV. But some of us have a Brain, we think for ourselves and we aren't misled by your government propaganda. Your article is worthy of a *kub* award as well, "More than 1 in 4 cars sold worldwide this year is set to be electric. The same crystal ball crap I have been calling out on these threads for years.

According to adam the caterpillar 793 electric dump truck was proof of a transition in mining but I quickly showed it had a massive diesel engine that drove an AC gen-set to power its wheels. Every time you post you fall flat on your face.



Here's the truth adam wants to run from.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', '
')Hybrid vehicles, blending internal combustion engines with electric motors, are surging in popularity as consumers seek fuel efficiency and lower emissions without the range anxiety of fully electric vehicles (EVs).
The U.S. Hybrid Market: Record Growth
In the United States, hybrids are gaining traction as a practical bridge between traditional internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and EVs. In 2023, HEV sales soared 53% from 2022, reaching nearly 1.2 million units

You know the trouble with you adam? You live in a fantasy world. I have seen it time and time again with boomers, they're always looking back to the glory days and always disgruntled by the way the world now is. They rail about the rich bastards taking it all and about political corruption, always saying "they should do this" "they should do that". They can't see the freight train coming their way because they refuse to accept the world has changed from what it "should be".

It's obvious Tesla shares will collapse one day soon, I mean a real collapse. And all those people that believed in musk and the future and all the rest of the tripe surrounding the company will lose out financially. The only thing propping it up still is the pension funds. It's like bitcoin, it has a momentum and a cult following but neither will save it, it's not Ford, it doesn't offer value and quality. Ford will go out the back door too but much more slowly, people will still be buying cars in 10 years, just very few EV. Tesla went all-in the full transition and that's a dead horse now. Perhaps if they offered a hybrid? But that would kill the brand.

You're biggest problem is you're living in England in 1929, the empire you have enjoyed is collapsing under the weight of its debts and military overstretch. But you can't see this either can you boomer? "No, we're still fine, they should just do this and they should just do that..."

Remember the Electric dump truck you told me about adam, the Cat 794 AC, you tried to prove the point EV was moving into mining in a big way. It had a 100% electric drive train. The only trouble was it was powered by a C175-16 (3500 HP) diesel engine. I knew that as soon as I saw the Huge radiator on the front. But unlike you I did a little research and discovered the truth. Just one in a long list of adam fails.

But I shouldn't expect much from you, given even your president's are retards

No one special, just a rank and file American.

The vessel was transporting approximately 3,000 vehicles, including an estimated 800 electric vehicles (EVs). The fire’s origin has not been confirmed, though lithium-ion battery ignition remains a possible cause given the cargo profile and previous mid-sea incidents involving EVs (see here & here).

Australia bought 3,900 Tesla's this quarter, up around 9.8% over last quarter. Even Australians should be able to figure this one out.

The transition hybrid, as it was once called, is absolutely killing the EV. But they in themselves are only a small portion of the cars sold globally. People want gas burners and nothing is going to change their minds on that.
