"The number of unsold electric vehicles at dealers in the second quarter tripled compared to the past year, signaling a weakened demand for the segment, said a recent report by leading auto-dealer data company Cox Automotive.

In second quarter 2023, the average inventory for electric vehicles (EVs) topped more than 92,000 units on the ground at dealer lots, according to the 2023 Cox Automotive Mid-Year Review presentation. This is up 342 percent compared to second quarter 2022. During this period, the new “EV days’ supply,” which refers to the average number of days a warehouse holds inventory before selling it, rose 166 percent, to 92 days from 38.5 days."

The problem with EV’s is there is no point to them.

You can save a little vs gas, but deal with the pain in the ass charging. Not a good trade off.

There just isn’t enough benefits to go EV. Imo there are a lot of negatives, including re-sale value.

They have to do a better job of selling us climate change

I saw zero teslas on the drive from Orlando to omaha...in fact i saw zero charging stations

you couldnt fit in a tesla so dont worry about it

This will just make them more affordable. Less demand, lower price.

Tesla sets new records for their sales with each passing quarter, including 466,000 in their most recent quarter despite crazy interest rates. Other car companies are 10 years behind in technology and are struggling. They deserve what’s coming.

Everyone here will own an electric car soon. A gas car bought today will be worth $0 in 5 years, so be careful

Teslas are better than gas cars in every way

More convenient to “refuel” at home while sleeping for cheap vs gas station

Better acceleration

Self driving

Quiet ride, better for music sound quality

Better tech entertainment

Can run AC or heat while in garage

Car automatically navigates to chargers on road trips. Can use them with no card, no need to type any info, just plug in and chill in the car with AC on watching Netflix or playing steam games on the build in giant touch screen

8 security cameras filming when someone is near your car when you’re away

Lower maintenance with no fuel pump, no transmission, no timing belt, no spark plugs, etc

I could go on and on

You could go on and on, but the fact remains America isn't ready for mass EV's AND Americans are in no hurry to buy them.

Nothing else matters.

Tesla sales are growing rapidly in the US. But the rest of the world is beating us to the punch and will have an economic advantage as a result

You didn't understand the article.

The unsold EV's are brands other than Tesla, Tesla is mopping the floor with the competition.

The Model Y is the number 1 selling car in America and it's made in America unlike your foreign made Ford or Chevy.

If someone wants to buy me one I'll use it as a backup to my superior gas car. Otherwise I don't want or need one. The government can get fucked if they think they can foist this garbage onto the population using pseudoscience.

I never mentioned Tesla, actually... was just rolling madness some shit since he's always singing their praises.

Growing rapidly or not EV's (at least the hybrids) have been around for decades, and yet they make up only 1 - 2% of all the vehicles currently on the road in America... which explains the massive surplus we're seeing AND confirms the fact that Americans still don't want them, in large part because of the price and the inconvenience (ie' the lack of battery stations among other reasons).

They set a record by reducing the price by 20% and having the government offer 7500 tax incentives

Charging my phone is annoying enough why would i want to charge my car everyday? Plus anyone who owns a phone sees what happens to the battery "life" after a few years...That range just keeps shrinking every year, well a gas tank that fills up in less then 2 minutes stays the same for life.

It doesn't drive better than a Mercedes or BMW

They all have self driving. BMW highway assistant has been rated as better self driving too...Mercedes just got approved for level 3, legally.

Long story short, i would rather pay more for gas for the added convenience. Plus the more people that switch the cheaper gas will get.

Not that many people qualify for the subsidy. Theres an income limit, yet you have to earn enough income to pay 7500 in taxes. Price drops were to make up for soaring interest rates. Tesla still has the best margins in the auto industry, but the price drops are why other EV companies are now toast, sitting on lots.

Regarding battery degradation, on average people see 12% battery degradation after 200,000 miles. The car has basically 5,000 phone batteries, and they are temp controlled when in use, and not, for longer life. Warranty alone is 120k miles for 70% battery life. It's a non issue. By the time a battery needs replacing it will be cheap to do so, as costs are rapidly coming down. Batteries are 95% recyclable too.

Charging a phone is annoying because it tethers you. Everyone goes at least a few hours per day without driving, so when you're charging, you arent tethered. You are eating, sleeping, watching TV, etc.

Nobody comes close to Tesla's self driving, nor will they ever. Tesla has custom, powerful CPU's inside every car theyve made since 2016, and one of the largest AI supercomputer clusters in the world, and that will be 100x larger than second place by the end of next year, for AI training. Custom DOJO chips now in production this month now that Nvidia's are sold out. Not to mention billions of miles of data from the vehicles 8 cameras and CPU readouts for 6 years. Self Driving isnt some off the shelf tech, it's required insane software and hardware development at headquarters and in the car. Boomer legacy auto companies barely comprehend it, no way they can ever make it. Nobody else has even started doing it for real yet for cars that you can purchase. They will be licensing the software from Tesla when it's complete.

[Uncontroversial]

and for road trips, here is Tesla's supercharger map for north america. More added every day. For almost 10 years, you've been able to go anywhere in a tesla. There are multiple locations at each dot. 45,000 stalls globally.

[thedangerouskitchen]

Madness can "sell" the vehicles all he wants but the fact still remains Americans don't want EV's. Maybe in 50 years they'll become mainstream... maybe... but by then we'll all be dead or too old to drive anyway so who cares.
