Believing it isn't going to happen is what's delusional. They have already declared there must be many more electric cars by 2020.
Anyone selling cars in California will need to make a fraction of their income from electric vehicles
not in our life times.

>electric is less fun than petrol
holy shit
The Model 3 is going to be a make it or break it kind of thing for the public perception of electric cars.
But actually it'll be a perfectly-adequate econobox that average car users will benefit greatly from and enthusiasts will hate
I dont think petrol cars will ever dye out. Sure as hell not in the next 20 years unless politicians really push for it. There will always be a market for gas cars, and gas companies will always want to sell more gas. But emissions will become more strict unless we put the blame on other shit.

How do you do burnouts in electric cars?
>>14869868
>"car, roast 'em!"
>I can't let you do that, Dave
> teslas are bad cars
Nothing more stupid has ever been said
> electric cars require constant maintenance
Opposite of truth
>>14869868
You press the accelerator and the tires light up instantly. Instant torque is better for burnouts than any gas engine ever made
>>14870509
And then it cuts in and out Like a spastic bevause of ridiculous traction control
Teslas can't do proper burnouts. Lack of a clutch and multi speed transmission means it will never do burnouts as well as ice cars regardless of how much torque it makes
>>14868927
It's true. My 6000lb behemoth is completely maintenance free, i only had to take it to the tesla service center 13 times this year, and almost all of it was covered by my tesla free maintenance package subscription which i pay $800 per yeear
Also the tires are fairly cheap, we get them at a military surplus store from old abrams tanks, at $600 a piece.
I have paid only over 100k for an electric mondeo + ipad combo, and it has practically paid for itself!
>>14870509
Except that it'll be electronically limited and probably even illegal to do so by then.
You don't need to do burnouts, just let the car drive you :^)
>>14868890
Absolutely retarded. The US has over FOUR HUNDRED YEARS worth of proven coal reserves. I'm not shitting you in the least.
>>14869868
Same as any other car?
You might need to build it yourself to get one without aggressive traction control though, at least until they start making fun ones.
>>14870521
Turn Tc off. Tesla != electric car. Multi speed transmissions and clutches are severe detriments to burnouts. Are you using logic or talking with your ego since you're a poor fag who thinks he could never afford an electric car.
Instant torque means instant traction loss. Clutch detriments that. So does having to up shift and spending a moment with zero power output. Most auto cars just lock in 2nd to burnout
>>14870528
Turn it off. If you are worried about the laws you are a Cuck. In california there are tons of illegally modified cars that never get in trouble because they don't speed or drive like idiots.
>>14870538
Can't turn traction control off
There's a reason why all videos of tesla burnouts look like abs lockup in reverse
>>14870546
Don't buy a fucking tesla then you idiots. Not every electric car for the rest of history will be a tesla. There are already others.
>>14870559
Such as?
I'm so fucking tired of morons conflating an electric drivetrain with the company Tesla and left-authoritarian politics.
These are not the same fucking thing.
fuck electric faggotmobiles aka the vapes of thr car industry, im going to convert to ethanol and drive on corn or go diesel and drive on peanuts
>>14870565
The Nissan Leaf
The BMW i3
The Chevy one whose name I forget
Mistubishi's one.
All the homebuilt/home converted ones that enthusiasts have been making in their garages for years.
Every major manufacturer is at the very least making prototypes.
>>14870612
Burnouts in a leaf? TOP FUCKING KEK
Try harder electrishit fanboy

I think electric cars are perfect for non-enthusiasts. If they replace gas cars we can still drive our shitboxes until we die.

Even for a tripfag, you're dumb. The arabs turned the taps off again last month, and the oil price is going back up steadily.
What are the odds when dudeweedlmao is legalized and the US can start producing industrial hemp again that we will start using biofuel made from it?
