Next generation (2025, 2026+) BEVs will be the tipping point for the auto industry.

When BEVs have 500 mile+ per charge capacity, charging infrastructure becomes abundant, and 350kW+ charging is ubiquitous (<15 min recharges), there will no longer be any value proposition for ICEs whatsoever (outside of hobbyists).

Amazing how fast the change is happening.

Agree or disagree?

    Nonsense & FUD:

    • Nonsense: There’s nothing indicating any of this is about to happen.
• FUD: There’s no indication 500mile+ range or 350kW+ charging are the limiting factor in BEV sales. PRICE is much bigger factor.

    BEVs won’t have that range. Range = energy / consumption.

    • Energy: there’s no reason to think energy density will be double AND that high density batteries become affordable in the coming decade.
• Consumption: Air drag &amp; rolling resistance wont get significantly lower AKA general consumption can drop to current Tesla Model 3 levels.
• Charging: energy must be doubled for your range prediction. You think that will happen AND charging speeds will double AND batteries will become affordable… Nope.

    Sorry but slow incremental steps is what’s happening, no revolutionary doubling numbers….
