What does it mean when a person owns an electric vehicle, or declares their intention to purchase one? I think they would like us to believe that it makes them a virtuous person. But according to a new study, it probably just makes them a stupid person. Someone who makes decisions involving tens of thousands of dollars, without evaluating the consequences of their own actions.
Here’s the report from Daily Signal:
Nearly half of American electric vehicle owners want to buy an internal combustion engine model the next time they buy a car, according to a new study from McKinsey and Co., a leading consulting firm.
Approximately 46% of Americans who own an EV want to go back to a standard vehicle for their next purchase, citing issues like inadequate charging infrastructure and affordability, according to McKinsey’s study, which was obtained and reviewed by the Daily Caller News Foundation.
People don’t like owning these vehicles. They are not practical, and they might even be dangerous if they catch fire.
If you thought that the Biden administration was competent about making electric vehicles more practical, think again:
Consumers’ concerns about EV charging infrastructure are notable given the slow rollout of the Biden administration’s $7.5 billion public EV charger program, which so far has led to the construction of only a few public chargers in nearly three years.
The Biden administration has a stated goal of having EVs make up 50% of all new car sales by 2030. The Environmental Protection Agency finalized stringent regulations in March that will force manufacturers to ensure that up to 56% of their light-duty vehicles are EVs by 2032.
The EPA has also finalized strict emissions standards for medium- and light-duty vehicles, while the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has locked in fuel economy standards that will further push manufacturers to produce more EVs.
The Biden administration is trying to push these electrical vehicles on the public with regulations, but the public chargers are just not there. The performance of these vehicles is just not there either. Maybe it’s time to put the brakes on these green efforts, before it starts to affect your life?
