Battery based vehicles of today and tomorrow pt 2

Fascinating video but the narrator is annoying and unnecessary.

Steven Mark Ryan is from Down Under. He is annoying and unnecessary but he is a hit with many and it earns him millions. He's big in real estate I hear. I find the Joe Rogan and Paul Harvey types a bit over the top at times but find their content interesting often. He said he linked the factory tour so one could bypass his comment.

This is an example of a true physical automotive recall unlike a software update sent seamless using the Internet.

Get into the 21st century ! Nowadays recalls can happen physically or over the internet. Either way can help keep drivers and other drivers or pedestrians safer !

But only one kind tends bankrupt the auto maker.

Get real. You have not been talking to the 8-year-olds for the last 20 years apparently.

No one has ever stated that the move to EVs is primarily because of engine and transmission recalls

If it were, someone would have uttered it. It's because the planet will burst into flames in a few short years (that has been uttered )

US electricity set to be 100% renewable by 2060

This timeline matches up well with when the move to EVs will have been 95% completed for passenger cars.
