99.9999999% of customer aren't gonna pay that kind of money for a EV when they can buy a new corolla for under 20k. GM will find that out real quick.

as will Ford as it tries to out-virtue-signal GM. Really guys (Ford HQ) is that all you're good for? Making grand promises of investment which will be abandoned in a couple years when reality drives a Mac truck into your face?

Exactly. About 10 or 12 years ago I heard someone say that electric cars will catch on when they offer no compromises in space, storage, cost, range, etc. We are still along way from that. Hopefully no one puts all of their eggs in the EV basket. I hate it when technology and science get politicised.

ps its -32C this morning. I wonder how the electric cars are doing this morning?

nobody knows, they can't get the door handle to pop out so it can be opened. Any car not plugged in and sitting outside is going to freeze their batt packs and become a major fire hazard.
