Hi John:
My point is this. I don't know what EV you have but my co-worker had/ has a Leaf. Nice little car but very expensive. My other co-worker has a Volt. Again, nice car but it was 40 grand for this tiny car. 40 grand!............for a little tiny car!
I can buy a Juke or something like that for 25 grand. If I only own the Leaf that is going to put me and "most Americans" in a jam because of the range deal. If that's the case, then you have to buy another car and that just adds to more expense.
Now if I buy a Juke I can drive it coast to coast with no worries. If I buy the Juke I would only have to buy one car for all my duties. Not so for the very expensive Leaf or Bolt or Tesla.
This is America. Open country and long distances. EV's work very well in small counties where the distances are not so great.
This is why the Bolt is failing. It has nothing to do with Big Oil or whatever. It does not pan out for the average American and they know that so it shows in EV sales.
Now if gas goes up to lets say 10 or 15 bucks a gallon then EV's would work. They don't now.
