Ότι έλεγα πριν 2 χρόνια περίπου.Stellantis CEO Gets Surprisingly Candid about Electrification (autoweek.com)
“EVs that can get to a reasonable 400 miles of range add 1000 pounds of weight [compared to a similar internal-combustion vehicle]. That is not sustainable—there are too many kilograms of raw materials. So the industry is fighting against this overweight, looking for chemistries that are more efficient. The next generation has to double the power density of batteries, making them with less cost, a smaller carbon footprint, and fewer raw materials. Did automakers underestimate the level of raw materials that would be needed? Yes, is the honest answer.”
Τα λέει ο Tavares αλλά δεν τον πιστεύουν...
Edit: δεν είναι το σωστό quote αυτό, κάπου αλλού λέει πως τα αυτοκίνητα είναι πλέον πολύ μεγαλύτερα από τις πραγματικές μας ανάγκες - δεν το βρίσκω τώρα.
"The technology for EVs means that our production costs are 40% higher than for an internal-combustion car. We can’t just pass those costs on to consumers because we would lose half of our customer base. We can’t stop the middle class from having access to new cars. So because of regulations we have no choice but to absorb that 40%."
Σωστότατος.
" If you took all the cars that are 15 years or older and replaced them with the equivalent modern car—pickup, sedan, what have you—the result would be a very fast 50% reduction in carbon dioxide, on average. These cars can be an affordable proposition, with mild hybrid technology, and sales would be very high. There would be big volume because you’ve protected affordability. If we were pragmatic, we could do that plan."
