Why EVs Are Piling Up At Dealerships In The U.S.

It's time for the world to wake up to the ranjiao EV scam.


In August 2023, it took about twice as long to sell an EV in the U.S. as it did the previous January. Prices of EVs are down 22% year-over-year and that's mainly driven by Tesla.

About two thirds of EVs sold are Elon Musk's brand. Companies like Ford have ramped up hybrid production as demand has leveled off. While slightly more than half of consumers say EVs are the future and will eventually replace Internal Combustion Engines, less than a third of dealers say so.

This all comes at a time when investments in EVs are more than ever. So what's really going on? Watch the video to learn more.

america is huge. a lot of cross cuntry drives. just going interstate will be a cause of concern for those with range anxiety. evs are ok for intracity driving. once you intend to drive from sf to sd, ev is out of the question as wait times at a midpoint recharging station has grown from 3 hours to 6.9 hours. better buy a hybrid. majority are now going back to hybrids.

The charging takes too long. Plus eventual replacement of batteries if it deteriorates and lose storage capacity hence less mileage. Best to wait for next gen batteries.

Which is why it is smart that Toyota is developing their battery that has a range for 1200km and can be charged in 10 mins.
these are just projections currently. Issues with mass assembly. China EV Nammi by dongfeng has this already. Charges in 8 minutes they claim. But range only built for 200km. Maybe to lower prices as batteries are expensive.

Lithium batteries are still last century's technology. Also, lithium mining does massive damage to the environment.

But you won't hear that from the globalist anti-carbon cult. :cool:

Remember, the anti-carbon cult is obsessed with the year 2030, as that is the focal point in the agenda of their Davos masters. :wink:

The fallout of the 1973 Yom Kippur war resulted in petrol sanctions by Saudi Arabia.

That ended America's love story with gas guzzling V8 5L engines and brought in the smaller CC imports from Japan.

After this major middle East conflict, American car consumers' habit will once again be changed

Long waiting list and huge dealership markups for toyotas in the US. Toyota trying to circumvent this unfair marketing by trying to emulate tesla. Let's see what will transpire.
Which means the price will continue to go up hence it's a good asset to have. Toyota hybrids that is
