China doesn’t have legacy ICE technology holding it back. The business models for EV and ICE are mutually exclusive.

The Guardian view on Britain’s spluttering EV market: a recharge is needed | Editorial Editorial: Ministers should be bold and radical in taking measures to boost demand in a key sector of the green transition

The @theguardian.com correctly identifies that speeding up transition to electric vehicles is only option for UK automotive industry survival

China is dominant because it has better technology. They're not going to stand still to let western carmakers catch up

Ali Velshi: What history can teach us about the path forward after Trump's win While it is a loss that your side did not win, it’s also simply a sign that your work is not yet done.

History shows us how defeat can pave the way for triumph

Inside the Republican false-flag effort to turn off Kamala Harris voters A multi-pronged dark money effort by advisers to Elon Musk targeted liberals, Jews, Muslims and Black voters with ads that were not quite what they seemed.

Russia did exactly this to HRC in 2016, aiming to suppress her vote, and probably did. Musk no doubt did suppress Harris voting as well with these demotivation techniques. This should be illegal.

Uh oh. Don't tell the "EV sales have stalled" folks, but August saw a set of new records in the US:
-Most plug-in vehicles sold (145k)
-Most battery electric vehicles sold (121k)
-Highest battery electric (8.6%) and plug-in vehicle sales shares (10.2%)

TO BE CLEAR, despite the many complexities, problems & grey areas that make electric vehicles MUCH more complicated than the “silver bullets” many claim them to be, I DO support the rapid replacement of ICE vehicles with EVs.

It will take longer and be more complicated than boosters think.

BUT…

THREAD: I’m going to share this thread here to clearly state my perspective on electric vehicles, car dependency and better cities, for all those who frequently ask me about it, including media, elected leaders and many others. Here goes. Please share it frequently if you think it will help. 🧵#EVS

It's clear that electric vehicles are the direction of travel for the automotive industry for their running cost, emissions, driver experience and other advantages

So it remains staggering just how far ahead China is of any other country or region in the world

Here’s the blunt reality — reasonably-sized electric vehicles need to be the future of cars, but cars can’t be the future of urban mobility.

Fewer cars.
Less driving.
More inviting mobility choices.
Better communities and cities.

These are the 4 pillars of the REAL urban transportation solution.

Around this time last year, headlines suggested a possible slowdown in the demand for electric vehicles (EVs).

However, despite some indications of a moderating pace, EV sales are still set to reach record levels in 2024.
