Escape, Edge, TC to be Killed

Escape, Edge, TC to be KilledWell based on what you say they shouldn't be able to buy a PHEV at all because that won't force people into EVs soon enough.


But if a BEV isn't viable and PHEVs aren't available then people will just continue buying non hybrid ICE vehicles. You can't force somebody to buy a $50k BEV that they can't easily charge.

If cheap BEVs and ubiquitous public charging is available in 5 years then new PHEVs are not needed. But you don't honestly think we'll be there in 5 years? I'm not sure we'll be there in 10 years. So why not offer both and allocate batteries to whichever one is needed and what consumers want to buy during this transition period? Otherwise you're just forcing people into less efficient non PHEV ICE vehicles. And any buyer that would charge a BEV at home would also charge a PHEV.Tue, 05 Sep 2023 19:44:22 +0000
