If Putin had designed a robot to destroy America he could not have done a better job than selecting Trump....Think about it, then read the Mueller Report. Trump sought and received Russian help in the campaign. Then obstructed the Mueller investigation.

Bought mine in 2006!

In 2017 we had Chinese businesses visitors over. I drove them around in my Model X. I thought they’d be impressed by an electric car, but they were mostly surprised how few there were on the road compared to China.

The scale-up is remarkable, but the bigger signal is China’s ~50% EV penetration now anchoring global battery cost curves and marginal lithium demand. The real risk is whether refining and permitting can keep pace with adoption.

Yesterday NPR ran a story about BYD's new "flash charging" technology, in which an EV can be charged from 10% to 97% in 9 minutes. It's a pity that we don't have access to BYD cars here in the U.S., and that U.S. manufacturers are not on the cutting edge of this technology.

Except for Tony Seba. He saw it coming.

The China data is wrong Jan, 1:2 is NEV, which includes hybrids, pure EV is about 30%.

12.7M EVs sold, but where's the baseload coming from? We ignored nuclear for 50 years and now we're surprised the grid can't handle it?

I’m seeing lots of Tesla cars driving around in Brisbane Australia 🇦🇺 sleek and beautiful machines . @Tesla

"In China, 1 in 2 new cars sold last year was electric." No, it was NEV (NEW ENERGY VEHICLE) a China only classification, that includes BEVs, Plug In Hybrids, and Ranger Extenders; but not, I understand, your basic no-plug hybrid. China is doing well, but not quite that well.

Wenn man von einem niedrigen Level kommt, ist ein höherer Anstieg immanent. Dennoch ist der Anteil bei rund 15 %. Sie kennen den Strommix in China? Sie wissen, dass dort alle paar Tage ein Kohlekraftwerk gebaut wird? Sie wissen, dass China auch den Verbrenner fördert, weil flächendeckende E-mobilität noch Jahrzehnte in der Zukunft liegt und man die Lücke füllen möchte, die europäische Autobauer hinterlassen? Die kennen dort kein entweder oder. Übrigens wie die ganze Welt außerhalb von Europa. Die machen schlicht beides. Und Regeln über Förderungen, nicht über Verbote.

Electric card will never be more than 11 percent of the fleet unless the government forces people to buy them. Which would start a war

Not Tony Seba.

12.7M EVs sold globally in 2025. 1 in 2 new cars in China is electric. 🔋🇨🇳 That's not just transport. It's 12.7 million mobile batteries ready to stabilize the grid. Z V2G każdy elektryk staje się elektrownią domową i buforem chroniącym system przed blackoutem. (1/2) 👇

@DuartePapel ainda há esperanças para o teu problema 😅

The issue has never been with electric vehicles. The real problem has always been: 'Let the market decide' and stop the government coercion! Personally i think people are crazy buying lithium-ion EV when sodium-ion batteries are set to be released this year, and are much better

Arm twisting people by making oil expensive 😏 the worst part of electric cars I heard is the constant radiation 🤦🏿‍♂️ and RFs

Und Sie so Herr @bundeskanzler ❓

It’s no longer ‘weird’ to drive electric ⚡️ 🚙🚕🚓🏎️

Practical necessity obliges. (If you can afford it)

It will continue. A lot of breakthroughs the last 12 months. And it is sensible and cheaper to move away from FF.

the transition is happening outside the usa…

Trumps incompetent war will give Renewables a big boost.

Exponentials always catch people by surprise.

It is not happening, it is pushed.

Nun, ich Europa zeigen die Zahlen leider etwas anders. Ich fahre seit 2013 ein Elektroauto. 😉

Except Tony Seba @tonyseba

So electricity is cheap at its first time as main source of energy，but doesn't mean it will be cheap in the future.As I see，the electric vehicle market's overmatured&now in a pace to decline as the cost rises quickly and the shortage obvious for long time use.

🥳

Forget "Globally". >60% is pure China. One country is not the global market.

Herr Professor Rosenow kann seinen Followern sicherlich erklären, warum der Absatz von Elektroautos überall dort zusammenbricht, wo staatliche Subventionen wegfallen. Wie aktuell in Norwegen oder China. electrive.net/2026/02/11/e-a…

✅

12,7 M 100% electric or also hybrid?

To billions of Chinese lol

In totalitarian China you buy what you're told to.

What a mess it's going to be in 10 years time when they all need replacing.
