Am I going crazy of has the amount of anti-EV “articles” started to skyrocket. Just today, I’ve seen a “Why I’m not buying an EV” concern article, some accusing Biden of killing EVs, “The true costs of buying an EV,” and my favorite: “Study: The True Cost of Charging an EV: $17/gallon.” (That study was funded by Exxon Mobil, lol).
What’s going on? Why is all the EV hate in the media ramping up?
If EVs were as good as enthusiasts think they are, the USA would not have to pay the $7,500 federal tax credit of other incentives to sell them. Some people bought the Prius so they could drive in the carpool lane in California. I don’t think EVs will become mainstream until the purchase price falls below $30,000, and charging is as fast as filling up a gasoline powered vehicle, and charging stations are plentiful, like gas stations. But EVs are another option for those that chose to buy them.
You’re just plain wrong. Only thing the US is lacking is a good infrastructure.
