Yeah, bro. . I have purchased three cars so far, two of which were General Motors. In 2010, I spent five years of my income on a very small Chevrolet Sail. Very small car. In 2020, I spent a year and a half of my income to buy a nearly 5-meter-long GM Buick Regal. In 2023, I spent half a year's income to buy a Chinese-made electric car. Once you buy an electric car, you'll never want a gas car again.

Loans with a 1% interest rate aren't 'sub-prime'. They are soft loans. To be clear, a soft loan stimulus approach could either lift or depress EV sales depending on how it is applied. Clearing backlogs of ICE vehicles isn't a sound objective - the effect would be to depress EV sales. Now, the overproduction of ICE vehicles is what the mid stage of a transition to EVs was going to look like. The Chinese government shouldn't permit soft loans for ICE vehicles. On the contrary, it should require penalties to be paid for overproduction (in an amount similar to normal sales taxes, say, despite the collection of these vehicles in lots unsold). The only sensible way to stop unwanted/excessive production is to suppress it. Soft loans to deal with depressed EV sales however might make sense. To reiterate ICE doesn't end with a smooth tapering and switch-over into EVs. It ends with ICE vehicle sales going over a cliff (and a massive spurt in EV sales) and obsolete ICE junk collecting all over the place as we are now seeing in China.

Sam misses the point about how this situation is similar to what happened in the early 1900s when cars first debuted. It was a freaking bloodbath then too. Every cart and horse centric company went out of business or downsized. Multiple companies started making everything from steam powered to electric, to gas, to alcohol powered cars. Hundreds of companies collapsed as petrol won. Meanwhile there were piles of car inventories rusting in fields. Maybe not as much because the factories didn't go so fast, but there was a lot. The Point? THAT IS HOW TRUE CAPITALISM WORKS! Picking winners and losers to avoid such carnage is NOT capitalism.
@zoransarin54115 ай бұрын
I would disagree that it is the same as when the car overtook the horse. That was a disruption. A new product came along on its own and was better than the product it was disrupting. Capitalism then took over. In the current case there is an externality not present in the past, namely climate change. So governments around the world are mandating the phase out of fossil fuel vehicles. That’s not true capitalism, as it is driving this change in the first instance. EVs are a superior product, but not in the early days when they are not cost competitive and have range and other issues. But there will come a point very soon when regardless of government intentions, they will be a better product and the market will drive what happens from then on. But at the moment, much of the momentum is government mandated and not purely the market

They don’t just sell in Germany, they sell in Europe and the UK. So what were the best selling cars in Europe in Feb 2024? Model Y at 19,946, Model 3 at 8,120 and Peugeot e208 at 5,319.
