This thingy looks too good to be true.
I wonder if it will work on my Energica motorcycle.

Probably won’t be a lot of selection by then though. Most manufacturers are planning on phasing out gassers by then.What percentage of cars do you think will be EVs in year 2036?
I expect a big rush of new ICE car sales in CA during 2033/2034 and very few people will be buying a new car in year 2035 and 2036.
It's ridiculous to think everybody will be buying a new car in year 2035. I doubt if anybody will notice any difference in year 2035. Those who want to buy an EV will have one well before then. Those who don't will be buying new ICE cars just before 2035.

Which is why I expect the price of ICE vehicles to go way up by then. As EVs become a lot cheaper.Probably won’t be a lot of selection by then though. Most manufacturers are planning on phasing out gassers by then.
Do you think if the EV laws take effect in 2030 or 2035 depending on the state you are in that EV's will be cheaper in those states?Which is why I expect the price of ICE vehicles to go way up by then. As EVs become a lot cheaper.

I doubt if the prices will be any more different in the different states than as they are now.Do you think if the EV laws take effect in 2030 or 2035 depending on the state you are in that EV's will be cheaper in those states?
If all you are allowed to buy in a certain state is an EV that will more than likely drive the prices higher.I doubt if the prices will be any more different in the different states than as they are now.
But I do expect that the price of new ICE vehicles will go up before 2035 as the price of EVs go down.
But it's little more than my guesswork.

The competition between the EV models will still be there. And there will be so many more new ones by then.If all you are allowed to buy in a certain state is an EV that will more than likely drive the prices higher.
Harley did that with their electric Livewire motorcycle.I wonder if EV manufacturers will eventually offer a high end external sound system to make EV's sound like a high performance ICE as a marketing strategy.
The major factors influencing the price of vehicles will continue to be supply and demand, and the economies of scale. I don't know why EVs will be any different than ICE vehicles.If all you are allowed to buy in a certain state is an EV that will more than likely drive the prices higher.
The climate issue isn't with pumping oil, it's with burning oil...As a side note, if we quit pumping oil like is being proposed, what will be used to make so many of the parts that goes into every single EV now? Thats all.
And in a free country, why should those who don't want to buy an EV not be allowed to buy an ICE vehicle after 2035?Those who want to buy an EV will have one well before then. Those who don't will be buying new ICE cars just before 2035.

So you can burn oil without pumping it? Thats news to a lot of folks, including me. Learn something new everyday... So where are you going to get the byproducts from, that I spoke about?The climate issue isn't with pumping oil, it's with burning oil...
It’s a free country. Go on Amazon and buy a cruise missile.And in a free country, why should those who don't want to buy an EV not be allowed to buy an ICE vehicle after 2035?
Read what I wrote again. Who said anything about not pumping it? I said the climate issue was about burning it...So you can burn oil without pumping it? Thats news to a lot of folks, including me. Learn something new everyday... So where are you going to get the byproducts from, that I spoke about?
But there seems to be a lot of climate experts from the time some just out of diapers until the time they depend on Depends now running around stomping their feet and screaming at high heavens about the climate the moment they step out of their black SUVs or their private jets. So its very hard to take those folks seriously.
But I guess PT Barnum was right after all pertaining to their audience.
By the way someone should tell the same folks proclaiming to be scientists and has yet to give up their black SUVs that electric vehicles are already on the market. Lead by example. Then we will take them seriously as the attempts to ban ICE continues.
For the exact same reasons you may NOT buy a new OBD1 vehicle today! You're stuck with OBD2 if you want to buy new today.And in a free country, why should those who don't want to buy an EV not be allowed to buy an ICE vehicle after 2035?
Did you read the two links in message number 846?Well, since over 60% of the electrical generation in this country comes from fossil and nuclear fuel there is now no practical way for the US or even California to have anywhere near 50% electric cars.
By looking at Plugshare, looks like there are even quite a few EVs in Alaska, probably well north of where you're from.And in a free country, why should those who don't want to buy an EV not be allowed to buy an ICE vehicle after 2035?
