How Car Makers Are Switching To EVs | CNBC Marathon

Why using a 2010 model S in the thumbnail? Think we don't know? 🤣

[@BryceLovesTech]

Great thumbnail. I have a 2013 Tesla model S with 162,000 miles on the original battery. Best car I’ve ever owned. By the way, I consider my old Tesla is a American muscle car, made in the USA and 450hp.

[@misterfunnybones]

They featured zero examples of the stock Model S vehicles defeating everyone at the local dragstrip. I love some of those early Tesla vehicles that trolled the hotrod crowd; some were suffering from damaged ego because their gas-guzzling vehicles are inextricably linked to their self esteem.

[@Pieman62295]

how is the battery aging? I'm curious how much of the original capacity it still has after ten years.

[@user-de4jk8vj4c]

Don't buy anything this liar is saying or selling.

[@misterfunnybones]

@@Pieman62295 there are plenty of people documenting battery degradation & it's definitely an issue long term; all vehicles are money pits that wear out. If you compare gas savings & low maintenance of an EV to an ICE, it's basically a wash long term: the EV will be cheaper until you have to replace the battery, at that point it'll cost more to repair than the car is worth, similar to any major mechanical work on an ICE drivetrain.

[@Tokamak3.1415]

@@Pieman62295 Just like an ICE losing compression as it ages BEVs will lose capacity as individual cells fail and get dropped from the pack voltage/capacity. It just shortens the range and possible the acceleration but it's still will operate like new. A battery failure is a lot less likely than an engine failure but it is just as catastrophic. But it's a lot easier to test batteries mounted to motors before they leave the factory than engines mated to transmissions.

That's actually not very good. A long haul diesel semi has a 1000 mile range on a single tank and takes about 20 minutes to fill up. With multiple drivers ( a common thing in long distance trucking), a diesel can go over 2500 miles in 48 hours.

@@markmeridian3360 I think the way Pepsi uses the trucks they wouldn’t go 2000+ miles in 48 hours. For long haul team drivers you are absolutely right. For solo drivers I think they are ok, not great. As the batteries get better the ability to work for long haul will get better. But a vast majority of trucks drive under 400 miles per day. These would be fantastic for container drayage.

[@markmeridian3360]

@@doittoit00 The Tesla semi is a scam. Current EV batteries are good for 600-800 full charge/discharge cycles before they start to significantly degrade. In an EV car that charges once per week (~15,000 miles per year) that's pretty good, the battery will last ~15 years. If you only partially charge the battery and partially discharge it they will last even longer (something like a 10 - 80 percent cycle). In a semi that has to fully charge once per day the batteries will last only ~3 years. If you only charge/discharge 70%, the range drops from 500 to 350 miles (on a perfect day). Since the battery costs $200,000 or more to replace full charge/discharge cycles are a non-starter so the claimed range is a scam.

It's by all metrics a greener car that will last longer, was cheaper and doesn't explode. And now it's nine years old and has never gone wrong and is heading towards the time where the battery would be replaced on the Tesla. Gotta get those little brown kids digging. Game over.

All the initial specifications about range and cost were dependent on the successful production of the 4680 cells. This production has been dismal with many problems. Only now, years later, does it look like the 4680 cell may become cost effective. No definite news, but it appears to me that 4680 cell production was halted at Giga Austin and new equipment installed. I expect them to re-start soon, maybe we will get some good news at the next stockholders meeting in about a month.

[@Goldsteinphoto]

​@@royh6526 I'm not sure how to calculate cost effectiveness...maybe a low yeild of usable cells, no matter what their cost. But of course if you have to throw away a lot of cells to have enough for a car, you'd use cheaper cells instead. So not even enough for many Model Ys with structural battery packs let alone for Semis. But also...energy density of 4680 was not as high as they wanted. This is just my opinion based on various reports. It isn't just the Semis that were battery constrained. I think Megapacks were as well. I think now Tesla uses iron phosphate cells in those and is getting enough to scale up production.

You may want to get yourself up to date about mining. The mining industry is converting to battery electric vehicles. All the major mining equipment manufactures such at Caterpillar, MacLean, Epiroc, Hitachi, Komatsu, GE, Liebherr, Volvo, etc., produce battery electric vehicles. The Copper Mountain mine in Canada uses haul trucks that run on electricity supplied by overhead trollies and they out perform the diesel trucks. A lithium mine, also in Canada, is due to begin production and it 100% battery electric, same with a nickel mine in Canada, 100% battery electric. Same with a many mines around the world. EVs don't suddenly run out of charge. Do you suddenly run out of gas? My EV displays the range in miles and it shows the amount of battery left, both graphically and as a percentage. It also displays the distance to the nearest charging station and constantly updates as I drive. And the NAV system will automatically alert me if I don't have enough charge to get to my destination and give me directions to the nearest charging station.

21:48 all of the large shopping centers with large parking lots should install solar panel canopies on their parking lots. 1. it reduces the exposure of vehicles to direct sunlight, so the cars dont become friggin ovens and as a result, use less energy to cool the car. 2. you use the land that would otherwise be doing nothing to produce energy which would help reduce energy costs. 3. the electricity from the PVs can help power charging stations for EVs.

Right now, it is race between China and Western nations and China is actually ahead in many ways, but Tesla gives us hope as they are already battling Chinese builders in China and succeeding. The US can be one energy independent via EVs. It is great that consumers can charge at home and that public charging stations can be built with solar, battery backup, and the charging station without need to be connected to the power grid.

The companies that already developed specialized electric vehicle platforms (Tesla, Volkswagen Group, Hyundai/Kia and surprisingly Geely/Volvo) early on have an advantage on everyone else because they could build a wider range of EV's to cater to various customer needs for EV's. That's why Mercedes-Benz has spent a fortune developing its own EV platform, GM is developing a range of vehicles around the _Ultium_ battery pack design, and even Toyota is spending a fortune to develop the dedicate TNGA-E platform for future EV's from that company.

I understand the objection to E.V.’s based on price, or because you rent and can’t install a level 2 charger, but otherwise, or if you have specific use cases, but I think a lot of it is because people just don’t know any better. I currently have an ‘09 Z06 Corvette with a (modified) 575 rwhp, roughly 650 at the motor, but I’m leaning toward buying an E.V. next year. I’ll just address complaints I’ve seen, some of which used to be what I also believed were problems. Hours of charging? Yep, in my garage - I don’t have to do my weekly gas station visits. Heavy? Yes, which means a slightly lower tire life. It also won’t be a track car like my Corvette. I’m OK with that if the replacement E.V. has the right qualities. The E.V.’s I’m looking at accelerate much faster than my Corvette, so that quality will satisfy me. Too little range? I used to think this, but in looking back at actual long trips I’ve taken, I’m pretty sure I’ve never driven more than ~3 hours without taking a break to use the bathroom and eat. So, at a 70 mph average, that means a real 300 mile range would be fine for my worst case long distance travel. Catching fire? The data show that when E.V.’s catch fire, it’s BAD, but the data also show that they actually catch fire about 1/50th as often as ICE cars. Yes, it’s skewed by old ICE cars, which may be the majority of those cars that catch fire. But it’s still true that E.V.’s catch fire FAR less often that ICE vehicles.

In any case, as E.V. purchases increase I suspect employers will start increasing charging stations, so it become natural to charge during the 8’ish hours you’re at work. In California, for instance, in the 1st quarter of this year E.V.’s made up 25% of new car purchases. I’m now retired, but where I used to work in Arizona a bit over 2 years ago my employer had installed about 2 dozen chargers - but that was for around 1000 people - so a low adoption rate. I also expect that even rentals will start getting chargers, whether it’s an apartment complex or houses.
