Electric Bus and its charging station, London 1906. Electric cars were present more than 100 years ago - all new is well forgotten old, or well hidden. ELECTRIC Cars discontinued to profit off of Petroleum. GAS car being discontinued now to profit from grid infrastructure. (gab.com)

You're emphatically stating the EV engine lasts longer?

Why not? Saw a tons of perfectly working induction motors from pre WWII era. They literally works for century. There is nothing in motor except rotor, bearings, stator winding, its core and case. There is nothing to break and in the worst case everything could be replaced or repaired in minutes. The only thing that could wear is bearings. There is no any simplier motors than electric ones. Simplicity gives reliability and ease of repair.

I agree that modern EV engine will be full of garbagewear, plastic parts, complex ECU with bloatware "for the sake of 0.1% of efficiency". But that does not mean that EV engine can't last all your life if designed correctly.

Modern ICEs are complete garbage too. Old engine could last 1M miles, modern ones demand full overhaul after 100k miles (or whatever is covered by warranty).

Electronics is the same thing. If you design it correctly, it will lasts forever. If you need it broke at desired moment, you also could do it without problems.

The problem is not in electronics, problem is in the bastards who design it so it should break as soon as warranty is over. That's all.

Why are they breaking quicker the more functions that are enabled. It doesn't matter the once reliable cars those renown manufacturers. They're simply making crap the more functionality it assumes. The EV is full of function, electrical everything, over reliability. The reliability of you could strip it down and rebuild it yourself. Gone today the more crap is fitted. Yes if you had a background perhaps you could get it to work. But the point is do you repair a flatscreen, or get a brand new one. Mass consumption. Every electronic today. They aren't made any better, they're as you say being made worse. Until that trend has turned into the EV. Please tell me if it has suddenly improved and made them into anything else. Why would it. Nope. We all need brand new cars today to beat the climate change. See.

Electronic warranty is by fact what. A battery warranty is what? There you have it.

Then the argument becomes how much more crap does it take to get it to work. You will sooner find it needs far more resource heavy production, and of course consumption, constant energy use wearing it quicker.

Theoretically, you could buy a EV car, remove all that unnecessary garbage including battery, order a methanol fuel cell (for the price 10x higher than whole car itself) and then it could be a some kind of useable EV. I don't think that you will find methanol at gas stations, but at least you will be able to take few canisters of methanol in trunk. :)

Really, modern EV cars is not even just another consumerist garbage, they are literally mean of people transportation control. Modern ICE cars are not far from that, but you still could have a barrel of gas on your backyard for some emergency. With EV car you completely got.

Interesting, when old cars began to cost more than new ones? It is already a thing with the tractors after John Deer go full retard with its spare pa rts DRM.
