End of Car Ownership? The Shocking Secret Unveiled! [How & Why]

The electric vehicle car market is collapsing as the cost of living crisis bites and government subsidies for electric vehicles are scrapped. Now the true reason of this car electrification will become visible and that that means that most likely you will no longer be able to afford one yourself. So finally the recession starts to reveal itself and one of the first sectors is the electric vehicle market. But this is not just the scrapped green subsidies or high purchase prices. In many countries it becomes now clear that electric vehicles are actually quite expensive to drive these days because the costs for electricity has risen so much. That is always the problem with all these government forecasts that they use to make you buy stuff. I clearly remember just a few years ago, they all said buy gas heating for your house because it is so green and efficient as it burns the gas without many polluting waste products. And now as everybody spend the money for this upgrade they make a 180 degree turn and try to prohibit it. A similar fate will come to the electric vehicles over the next couple of years. May not an outright prohibition but it will become too expensive for most due to the rising electricity costs and that is part of the plan. So if we again open up the absolute zero report here which shows the objectives for the way to net zero for the United Kingdom, well we can on the bottom, no fossil fuels, no shipping, no flying and many other measures that they would need to enforce in order to achieve a net zero target by 2050. So without fossil fuels, the currently used cars will no longer work, so those will definitively have to go. And on the top we have cars as its own category. They say there that from 2020 to 2029, all cars have to be compatible with net zero. From 2030 until 2049, the average car size and their weight have to come down below 1000 kilo grams. Lets look quickly what the weight is for all Teslas. Well interesting, they are all kind of double the weight that is outlined here. And a major reason why electric vehicles are so heavy is because of the huge batteries. O K lets look at the wider fleet of electric cars. Here we have quite a comprehensive list. If we scroll down we can see that actually none of them weights less than 1000 kilo grams. If we take the VW e up 18 point 7 or the lightest one, the mitsubishi i mi ev, then we can already see in which direction this is going. This does not look so cool like a tesla anymore I have to say and these are still way too heavy. With a bit more research I could find these two, the Renault Twizy and the Smart EQ fortwo. Well these are really tiny. But hey at least you have a roof over your head. But putting looks aside, I think we can already conclude here that most likely the electric vehicle future that we imagine, like driving the 4000 kg heavy cyber truck is most likely not going to happen unless you are filthy rich. Most likely for most people this will mean taking an electric bike or scooter, public transportation or working from home if you are lucky and still have work. Otherwise you would have to take your Soma together with Bills Soylent green and play video games as Yuval Noah Harari puts it elegantly. But that’s not all. If we move over to the next category from 2050 onwards, then we can see that they want to reduce road usage down to 60% or the vehicle weight has to go down further. I could not find a forecast of the electricity prices for the US or the UK. But for Europe I found this one. So taking an estimated medium between scenario 2 and 3 I think we can safely conclude that the price of electricity will at the bare minimum double until 2030. I am personally not that optimistic and think it may even quadruple but I am always too pessimistic I guess.
