People here in Miami really love their EV's. In fact they are so happy with them they wish they never got them. The reason? Because they are only getting 700 to 1000 miles out of a set of tires. Here in Miami because of the hot sun the roads get very hot. It seems the rubber compound used is much softer than non-EV cars. This leads to accelerated tire wear as more rubber is left on the road surface then normal tires. In fact this is such a concern that the state is looking into rubber pollution caused by EV tires. It seems that the rain is washing the rubber off of the roads, and this runoff is full of little rubber bits. This rubber is then making its way to the beach and into the ocean.

The swap to a Tesla Model Y long range now costs me £498 a year. Over a 4-year business lease, that’s nearly a £30,000 saving. The Tesla is not perfect by any means, but £30k is £30k.

@@arlrb76With respect, I never said it wasn’t. I’m painting a real world picture of 63% of the uk new car market when given a choice of what car to choose. To a family, you can do a lot with £30,000. Even if you have to put up with a few EV failings. The big Mercedes was a far superior car. But not at the cost of an additional £30k in tax paid. That’s purely down to the Government manipulation of the tax system.

6 fast charges use the equivalent electricity to 1600 houses for that charge period. Impressive 🧐

[@djtaylorutube]

Show your working, then repeat for burning petrol or diesel. We can take a quick stab at it, if we say a fast charge would be full battery, that's about 2 gallons. So what you're saying is that you could power 1600 houses for the same as around ONE tank of petrol. How does that sound?

How can anyone accuse Lee of EV misinformation when he’s literally married to his Taycan and can’t afford to get a divorce? 🤷🏻‍♂️😂😂😂😂

Living in Turkey we went 200km to another resort for the weekend. Our phones received a message asking us to go to the local Police Station with our Passports then to the Provider with the Police permit to unlock. "Geo Fencing".

Hi Lee, Don't know if you heard about the battery recycling facility that was on fire last night (Mon 8th April)? Fenix Battery Recycling in Kilwinning, Scotland. I'm a resident who lives nearby and it was very scary!! Thankfully no-one was injured but it amazes me how close this building is near to peoples houses. The poor people all had to get evacuated from there homes last night to place of safety. The smoke/fumes are still evident today 14 hours later with fire crews still on the scene.. Is this the first of many?

[@markjackson8035]

At least it was only the poor people that were affected. Thank the lord the middle class masses were able to stay in their detached houses.

Water fuelled hydrogen cars from Toyota are the best!❤

[@djtaylorutube]

You mean the electric car that does a bit of electrolysis? Hugely inefficient, might as well just connect the battery to the motor and go further, cheaper!
