*This* should be #mandatory #watching for anybody who wants to #discuss #electric #vehicle #ev #cars http://backreaction.blogspot.com/2023/07.. Turns out, as suspected, the #electrical #grid is not ready for them - who would have thought it!
I would personally like to see #markrober continue his #war against #thieves , I think this is genuinely a force for good: https://youtube.com/watch?v=iWeu2dxHRDg Honestly I would like to see the #box be more #malicious and #disable their #vehicle or cost them #money . I understand people are in hard times, but these people #stealing were obviously not there trying to #support a #mfaily , they were just chancers.
Looks like the #used #car #market is about to #crash pretty hard, with tonnes of people looking to #sell their #vehicle https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/sell-m.. Looks like we are about to enter a #buyers #market pretty soon!
Weird, #biden 's new #infrastructure #bill looks to put in a #mandatory #vehicle #disable / #killswitch if they can figure out how to #manufacture one: https://hothardware.com/news/bidens-infr.. The problem with these bills is that they are almighty messes of un- #focussed #legal #spaghetti ... It's amazing that *this* is the #system that they continue to use, rather than a series of #microbills ...
I *really* think there is actually a #market for these mini #electric #vehicle designs in the #west - but these tend to sell to #mainland #china only: https://gadgettendency.com/a-modern-elec.. Specifically these little #cars would be great for non- #motorway use, i.e. #local #shopping and/or #deliveries - #school #pickups , etc. I think the market is there if somebody is willing to do the #investment !
This #atomic #mech #robot is pretty insane: https://orangebeanindiana.com/2021/04/09.. Sounds like something that could be used in some #war to answer a serious problem, like crossing highly #radioactive land or dealing with some large #vehicle like a #tank ...
I think this #ecamper #electric #vehicle is cool, but it's weird to be coming out of #london given there is no sun in the #uk https://www.drivingelectric.com/levc/406.. At 62k it's still too expensive and it's ugly as sin, but I look forward to these vehicles becoming cheaper and mainstream. Fitting four people is very cool though.
