That’s because most PHEVs have ridiculously stupid 20 miles or below electric range. So most people don’t even bother charging them and use them as regular hybrids. Electric range of a PHEV should be at minimum the average commute, so 37 miles. But preferably at least 50 miles and ideally 100.

Nope, they won’t. slideshows won’t exist as they couldn’t catch up with how fast people wanted information. Instead, displays were outfited with 10,000hz screens and would seizure induce 10,000 messages into viewers per second.

All cars in the real world are “tests”, many components in cars hardly have been tested for even a fraction of the miles some of the level 2 systems got. And yet they go into production just fine on new cars.

So you are saying we should ban all cars from all manufacturers?

“In the moments before the collision, which occurred at 9:27 a.m. on Friday, March 23rd, Autopilot was engaged with the adaptive cruise control follow-distance set to minimum. The driver had received several visual and one audible hands-on warning earlier in the drive and the driver’s hands were not detected on the…

Neither would an average Tesla driver, your point?

Nope, most of them use the same method as Tesla does which is holding the wheel. Not to mention, I fail to see why it’s the cars job to baby people?

“According to the National Sleep Foundation’s 2005 Sleep in America poll, 60% of adult drivers – about 168 million people – say they have driven a vehicle while feeling drowsy in the past year, and more than one-third, (37% or 103 million people), have actually fallen asleep at the wheel!”

So... how is that any different from any other car without a human in the driver’s seat?

It wouldn’t, because an average Tesla driver isn’t watching a movie. A level 2 system is meant to be used alongside the driver.

That’s false, only if you go over a certain level is it not approved. As long as you remain below your state’s concentration level, you can have some alcohol in your system just fine.

Nope, I’ve yet to hear anyone who owns it calling it a self driving system. They might say it can drive itself, or promote it. But if you ask most if not all owners, they will tell you that it isn’t full self driving “yet”.

The mistake you are making is you are trying to show that the WORST amongst people is a representation of the AVERAGE amongst people.

I remember when they looked at who made up the largest % of Tesla buyers as a % of cars sold by that manufacturer. And McLaren had the highest turnover to Tesla.

There is nothing wrong with lithium ion to begin with. Lithium ion batteries in themselves are not considered toxic, and lithium is normally found in water. Toxicity in general is a factor of concentration. Even oxygen in high consecrations for a long time is toxic.

Batteries act as a buffer for renewable energy. They don’t need to deal with 23,000 MW of gas. People seem to misunderstand the use of batteries. They help smooth the curve and provide short term back and grid services.

Most of the lithium comes from brines, also despite the name, there is very little lithium in a lithium ion battery. And lastly, that lithium will last for decades in the battery unlike the gas that has to constantly be burned.

You know... that price is actually quite “reasonable”. I was expecting over a million.

Since 2009, the amount of SUVs and Trucks on the road have increased, and those crashing into smaller vehicles or people would obviously lead to more deaths.

Polestar 2 is a compact while Tesla Model 3 is a midsized sedan.
