Is it time to start asking whether electric vehicles have any redeeming value in 2024? Given the recent spate of bad news surrounding them, the answer to that question is becoming clearer.
As RedState reported, Ford has cut the production of its “Lightning” electric pickup truck in half. Why? Mainly because no one wants to buy them. Why do they not want to buy them? Because they are overpriced, unreliable, and impractical.
Who could have guessed that paying $55,000 (and that’s with EV subsidies) for a stripped-down, base-level truck that overheats when you tow things and can’t drive over 300 miles on a single charge wouldn’t appeal to the average F-150 buyer? Certainly, people who use their trucks for work have found little to no use for such a pointless monstrosity.
It’s not just the Lightning, though. The entire EV industry is getting hit by reality right now.
Watch out for YOUR insurance premium to increase resulting from expensive EV claims!
Has Already !!!
Let the market decide what the people want in stead of elected government officials. Quit handing out subsidies and tax breaks on a vehicle nobody wants or cares for. If you want an over priced grocery getter, by all means buy it. But quit ramming the concept of a total EV usage down my throat.
