    September 2, 2023 at 8:47 am

    Obviously not a comprehensive list. No mention of BYD or orther Chinese competitors. Off course this is US centric and they have banned. Them cause they can’t compete

    Only republicans and fascists buy Teslas.

    Refreshed Model 3 is MY most anticipated – I know, CNET probably did this video “before” the refreshed revealed.

    OMG love this video! Can’t wait to see what 2023 brings in the EV world. By the way, have you heard of FantaClaus? It’s like the ultimate comment helper, helping YouTubers stay lit with their audience!

    Your report confirmed what I’ve suspected. Between the much higher cost full EV’s aren’t there yet. Hybrids or plug-in Hybrids are the way to go.

      “The rebates can make these EVs cost about the same as a combustion car”

      “hur de har, they’re way more expensive so they aren’t there”

      It’s almost like people don’t watch the videos before they comment

    • B W

      @Dennis Finn ”can” not all people live in locations to get those rebates. California, sure. But not everyone lives in CA to get them.

    • Dennis Finn

      September 2, 2023 at 6:25 pm

      @bw2532  Many rebates are federal, and many states have additional rebates. Plus, total costs are lower due to reduced maintenance and fuel costs, even without the rebates.

      Sure you CAN pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for an EV, but you can do that with a combustion engine too. Some EVs are ~30k with similarities ICE cars costing ~25k, which you’d make up just in the first 2 years in fuel and oil change costs.

    Good review. Although one thing you forgot out. On the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the Genesis GV60 Advanced/Performance (and VW, BMW, Mercedes) come with 2 or 3 years free 30 minutes EA DC fast charging (which you can do unlimited), so you’re saving that over gas cars. No gas car comes with free gas 😂😂😂

      Friends don’t let drunk friends post on YouTube. But I’m guessing you don’t have many friends.

    What about climate? Those of us in the northeast lose lots of range in winter when temps get into single digits.

    Unfair and biased. OK there are Korean and US car makers in this promo. Where are Chineese EVs? And mind you, no interior of a car is shown. Just a wheel of a KIA for a brief moment. That’s becauses the EVs in the video are all plastic inside. And they are overpriced. You can’t easily fool people on the era of Internet 😉

    Best EV advice I’ve ever heard: Don’t buy an EV

    • Dennis Finn

      September 2, 2023 at 10:51 am

      Best advice I’ve heard is ignore people with VIDS in their user name

      @Dennis Finn I’m not a people I’m a person

    • Dennis Finn

      September 2, 2023 at 4:31 pm

      @CombatLegsVIDS  and you’re the only person who could have VIDS in your name? That’s cool, I guess you have it trademarked around the world? That’s cool, how’d you get the trademark?

    • Apollo

      September 2, 2023 at 4:33 pm

      @Dennis Finn No, but I keep it that name because I love getting people’s reactions to it. I want to tell you the backstory even though I don’t care if you care. I made this account like 10+ years ago when the free online game Combat Arms was popular. I was a little kid who figured out how to screen record the gameplay and wanted to post some highlights to show friends. Posted a couple videos, got bored then took the videos down. I remembered my account password years later and realized my name was funny without context and kept it. Glad that you got triggered, buddy 😆

    • Dennis Finn

      September 2, 2023 at 4:53 pm

      @CombatLegsVIDS  you…. aren’t very bright huh? Your name didn’t “trigger” me, I used it as a joke on your stupid statement about EVs.

    When you buy an EV, you buy the charging infrastructure. And CCS is spooky these days

    Great segment – Kia and Hyundai are looking to replace the US Toyota niche

    Don’t buy ev cars. If you need to repair them, there are a few mechanics that can fix them. And all of them work for the company, so they are going to charge you very high. The infrastructure is horrible. There are a few chargers, some of them don’t work properly, and they say you can charge your car in around 20 minutes, but what if there are cars in front of the line. That could take hours. They’re expensive compared with regular cars. In other words, it is the beginning of this technology, and you want to be used as guinea pigs. Wait 10 more years.

    for coding and graphic design
    Which laptop should you buy?

    HP victus
    (16GB DDR4, i7 12650h, RTX 3050ti)

    either

    Dell G15
    (16GB DDR5, Ryzen 7-6800H, RTX 3050Ti)

    I want quality and long duration.

    I accept other recommendations

    6:03 are you showing off a 2020 Model 3 talking about the best Ev’s?? 😮

  30. SS S

    September 3, 2023 at 10:16 am

    Great job and timely for me. I’m currently looking for an SUV anywhere between as small as a Stelvio to as big as an Explorer. I’ve looked at a lot of new and used vehicles and most of the mainstream ones don’t interest me or are too expensive that do (new). Looking at various luxury brands I came across very good prices on the Audi e-tron (2019-2020) so I started some investigation into EV SUV’s. While I love the look and used price of the e-tron the main issue will be range. Real world range new is about 185miles factor in that after 8-10 years you can expect around 30% range degradation in the battery I’d be looking about 145 miles once I owned it for 4-6 years. That took it off my list along with also expecting that the resale on that 8-10 year old car would probably be really bad due to limited range/longevity of the battery. Still no idea on cost of battery replacements for EV’s

    I’m still looking at a number of vehicles and have noticed some EV’s are having some significant discounts. You can get $7,500 off an Ioniq5. I love the look and test drove an SEL (only 2k off the limited). While a fun experience it’s just too small with a list price of $52k (same as a loaded Palisade so what’s the point?). Looking into a Ford Mach E (AWD, extended range battery) as there seem to be big discounts along with low financing and a partial tax credit so they might be an option.

    I haven’t written off EV’s for my next purchase but they face a huge uphill battle in the mid-larger size SUV space. The Kia EV9 looks amazing but the top level Telluride is already expensive and commands ADM so how bad is an EV9 SX Prestige going to be? The ID Buzz is my absolute favorite but I just know a top trim is going to be probably around $70k with no tax credit. That is a new Genesis GV70 3.5 with all the fixins.

    Something not mentioned in this video is availability and TRUE purchase price. Many dealerships slap a non-negotiable surcharge onto popular or hard to get EVs just because they can. You go into a dealer thinking you’re going to spend $42,000 and find out right before delivery there’s an extra $10k charge – take it or leave it. Tesla’s direct-to-consumer sales model does not have this problem – the cars are readily available and you know right away what you’ll be paying, with no surprises.
