If I have to predict the future I'd say Tesla will keep dominating in the US as long as Trump is president. When it comes to self driving, some don't trust it because of accident risk but soon they will. That's new tech for you

The Future of Electric Vehicles: Navigating the Transition

The Shifting Political Landscape of EV Adoption

Recent studies have shown that the political divide around electric vehicle (EV) adoption is starting to narrow. While early on, political affiliation played a significant role in EV purchasing decisions, with Democrats being much more likely to buy EVs than Republicans, this gap is now closing.

The data suggests that the reasons for not buying an EV are shifting away from political beliefs and more towards practical concerns, such as access to charging infrastructure and the need for towing capabilities. As more mainstream automakers introduce a wider range of EV models, the perception of EVs as "tree-hugger" cars is also starting to fade.

Interestingly, the study found that only 8% of consumers still feel that EVs are not aligned with their political beliefs, indicating that this is no longer a major barrier to widespread EV adoption.

The Challenges of Reaching 100% EV Adoption

Despite the positive trends in EV acceptance, the transition to a fully electric vehicle (BEV) future by 2029, as predicted by Elon Musk, may face significant challenges. The other major automakers appear to be struggling to keep up with the pace of change, and it's unclear if they will be able to deliver the necessary volume of EVs to meet the anticipated demand.

The discussion explores the potential solutions, such as Tesla partnering with other manufacturers to build factories and provide the necessary technology and expertise. This "Foxconn-style" approach could allow legacy automakers to quickly ramp up their EV production without having to start from scratch.

The Evolving Demand for Personal Transportation

Part 3/4:

As the transition to EVs progresses, the conversation also touches on the potential shift away from individual car ownership, particularly among younger generations. With the rise of ride-hailing services and the promise of autonomous vehicles, the need for personal car ownership may diminish, as the convenience and cost-effectiveness of on-demand transportation becomes more appealing.

This could lead to a future where the majority of people opt for electric, automated ride-hailing services rather than owning their own vehicles. The implications of this shift could be far-reaching, affecting everything from urban planning to the automotive industry.

The Importance of Adaptability and Innovation

Throughout the discussion, the importance of adaptability and innovation in the automotive industry is emphasized. As the landscape continues to evolve, companies that are able to quickly adapt and embrace new technologies and business models will be better positioned to s

The potential for Tesla to partner with other manufacturers and provide its expertise and technology could be a game-changer, allowing the industry to accelerate the transition to a more sustainable and efficient transportation future.

I really hope Elon responds to him. I'm also very confused with EV future getting automated. And it's going to be tough for the companies to cooperate because they might be scared of change. Things could go soar if customers they like it.

but honestly do you believe what they say, that EVs are dead because I'm seeing lots of companies entering in, China getting serious with it.🤔

What who say? The media? Not a word. They keep proving they are nothing but liars.

EVs are far from dead. Check out the data. They keep gaining market share as a percentage of new car sales.

The US is lagging, in part, due to the fact there arent many affordable EVs available.

well there were rumors out there based on Trump coming to the seat that he would set regulations against EV as a way to fight China. But I guess I and all of them are wrong

He will likely use tariffs to slow the Chinese move.

The tariffs law was something the shocked me lol but it'll work a hundred percent. Elon's Tesla company is rising faster all that revenue they're about to generate will advance Tesla why the tariffs slow China Ev

Range anxiety is hype more than substance. Most people do not travel more than 100 miles per day. In many western countries, the charging network is such that people can even cross countries. Give it another year, it will be there.

The Chinese have the answer to the last one yet the EU and US are doing all they can to keep them out. Affordability is still the problem in the West. China solved it and that is why EV sales in that country are taking off.

Well, range is an issue for me, I really want a car with which I can drive 1200 kilometres with just one stop. That is currently not possible with any EV…

And there’s the fact that charging along highways in Europe is very expensive. It costs you more per mile than combustion engines. At least here in Europe.
