Bullshit. You can easily get a battery for less than $25,000. The Tesla model 3 is a 50KWh pack and is $14000 to replace and likely costs way less to make.
If you were really skilled you could buy 50KWh worth of cells for less than $10000.
The reason the batteries are more is because you have SUVs and Trucks that need twice the amount of cells for about the same range because they’re not aerodynamic
BC has stupid cheap electricity, it’s a perfect candidate for EVs just like Norway.
They don’t want to change way before 32, they heat the packs to fast charge. But 15 degrees is really uncommon as a consistent temperature in most populated areas and that’s also why you insulate the pack to keep them from getting excessively cold.
I personally think LiFePo cells are currently the most proven opinion. Only downside is density but 300mi is fine idk why more is needed.
Like Canada who doesn’t sell many EVs?
They don’t like charging in the cold but they’ll dissipate just fine
How is Norway bad for EVs then
You don’t have to replace the battery every 10 years. LiFePo cells can do more than 3000 cycles before going below 85% rated capacity. CATL has been making these cheaply for years.
Toyota has been actively sabotaging EV transitions for decades. Of course they’re against the thing they don’t want.
How are most countries more suitable for EVs than Norway? Norway’s hydro power and smaller size is pretty great for EVs.
Hydrogen was as good as dead for years because compressing it is so wasteful
I thought thunderbolt was DP passthrough as well
“so you just run android?”
If coffee is a tea then I’m going to demand the pasta tea not be poured down the drain
But to avoid this you could run a VM and restore to a snapshot but that’s not really switching to Linux. Windows/Mac users should generally not just jump into Linux but transition to it.
Lemmy as usual disregarding pragmatism to be as dogmatic as possible
Plus headphone jack
I get that plastic is cheap, common, and often wasteful but it is also shock resistant, light, and transparent.
I want to move out of the US for the same reason but I ultimately think I shouldn’t. If I run I leave others to fight for what is right without me. I’d rather die in a shit hole than watch my shit hole become fascist from afar.
My first complaint with Tesla is the shit tablet for everything. I don’t want to have to look at a screen while trying to drive. Elon is a shit but every publicly traded company is going to be owned in some regard by a billionaire fascist.
She’s right, she is that some people.
It’s not really a problem unless you don’t have the ability to drive the EV. Most people aren’t driving long distances so just heat the battery and lose efficiency. People use more energy just heating the interior for themselves than the battery
