Have you considered investing in an EV? Do the vehicles showcased here have features that appeal to you? If not, what should manufacturers do to earn your purchase?

Where's the Ioniq5?

Do you have a video on how eco-friendly these cars really are? It's hard to find reliable information about that. Thx

I have considered in getting an EV, specifically the Rivian R1S. What attracts me to it more than any other is, as it's stands now, the possibility to sit 7 adult passengers according to Rivian and other EV influencer's. I'm skeptical about their promises because of the reputation that most EV manufacturers promise at the beginning of their mass production journey. My hesitation in adding myself to their queue is the entry to "play" -$1000 for a deposit- and the promises in repairability. The repairability issue is much bigger than they predict and if mass orders and newer design mod's are made I can't imagine them keeping their promises of servicing THEIR EV at an "owner's" home.

In 1900 of all cars in the USA 38% were powered by electric motors. Now it is 1,9%.

Yeah, I recently got my first car, a 2013 Fiat 500, but was really excited about the new all-electric model. Unfortunately, it is not currently slated to release in North America 😪

6:18 electric Mustang The car : a four door SUV/Crossover

👍👍

Why does the host look like Nathaniel Drew?

2021 for electric cars is not the year also not everyone can afford them so

More videos plz

More videos plz

Not a Mustang 🐎

The one with the vault please

The mini electric

Can you guys try to say something new? You guys say the same thing in every EV coverage

If it don't look like a truck it's not

Fun fact the Mustang Mach E was the pace car for NASCARS Geico 500 this year.

def do a vid on the china ev market

Man i absorbed the video too much it feels like it suddenly ended

Yes more on the china market!

I think that ev charging station should add a federal tax for every amp or watt pending on how it is decided to charge your vehicle. I also believe home charging stations should have a current meter and a monthly tax should be charged.

Fun fact:electricity comes from power plants which use coal. so electric cars produce more carbon emissions then gas cars

Volkswagen is the least inovative company in the car industry they don't make any sense

gm did not make a car for the average Jo, they are only doing it for attention . bring buyers back to there gas brands . just a sales stunt

Price on fuel: Gas vs Electric? Here in Norway a friend of mine who commute about 50 miles every day with an EV, pays about $40 a month for the charging. Had he used a gas car I guess the price would have been $200-250 a month. How is that in the US?

yep

Electric Vehicles are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo amazing! I can't wait for it to take over the world :D

God I hate The Verge

😘

Where are the electric minivans? That’s what I’m holding out for.

EV's are looking better all the time, but until we have a charging infrastructure with universal charging plugs, it will be hard to go past the tipping point of massacceptance

There is a EV company called Rimac, which you didn't mention. Worth looking into.

Lol @ China's electric cars. They've all failed and the company went bankrupt by the billions and had to get new management.

1.5 million cybertruck preorders, not 500k. Is big oil paying you to say that?

Make Cars efficient not electric.

Considering Ford Mustang Mach E and Polestar 2. Telsa has the lowest quality, which is disappointing. Rivian will beat CyberTruck.

i just want an actual affordable electric suv that isn't going to run me up 50k

Stop it with Nikola! It’s a fraudulent company.

Apart from the Bolt they're all so... BIG. Much nicer to have a small EV for around-town use. Most of us live in cities or the suburbs and that fraction is only getting larger. I guess we'll never get over car as fashion statement. M3 is also quite small and it seems to get regular updates, so that's still quite attractive. I wish ID.3 were coming to the US, thank dog I own an e-Golf that will covers almost all our driving needs.

Solid video

I am doing something wrong. I am almost 30 years old and paying 30k for a car would be a dream. At least I am healthy👌.

My next vehicle will probably be my last gasoline vehicle. My current lease is up in November and unless the prices for EV are dropping, I cannot afford one. P.S. I drive a 2019 Kona and love their EV version but I cannot afford the price increase and I'm only driving about 6000 miles/year! Maybe my 2025 vehicle will be an EV because there won't be any gasoline cars made by then.

If they want everybody switching to EV then they gonna have to drop those prices down some. And can’t be like oh after tax credits this is $30k but it’s up $7500 federal tax credit. Which you won’t get till you file your taxes

I'm pumped for the Ioniq 5. That thing's gonna eat everything else for breakfast.

Gimme a sedan that’s cheaper than a model 3 and I’m game

there also some nice options coming from Mercedes

what about hyundai ionic 5?

Definitely review the Polestar 2

It seems like lots of automakers are betting that relatively affluent people (or families) will buy mid-size SUVs instead of sedans or sports cars. I'm curious if there will be a wave of relatively cheap sedan (like the Honda Accord or Toyota Corolla) EVs in the coming years if these are successful.

The number one that IMO that these companies need to make sure is solved is charging. I should be able to charge at any companies station, just like you do with gas, and just like you do with charging your other electronics. (i.e. USB C but for cars)

Companies need to start working on affordable and basic EV's for the next decades new drivers; or come up with rental/subscribtion contracts similar to how we rent/subscribe to our phones.

Where does the electricity to charge these cars come from? Can the power grid supply enough to charge more cars? What happens to the batteries when they go bad, where do they go? The world is not advanced enough for electric vehicles (yet).

Taycan Wagon!!!

EU emotion rules also played a big part in the existence of the ID4

All cars look the same. I am not a fan of Cyberturck but at least ITS SOMETHING NEW

You are making a big mistake by neglecting Dacia Spring.

Just pulled the trigger on a Tesla model 3 in January. If you haven't test driven a tesla, it's hard to understand just how good it is compared to legacy gas vehicles.

India's TATA Nexon EV is a worthy car. You could have mentioned it.

Yes make more ev videos

That Tesla Cybertruck is very reminiscent of the De Lorean.

I like what Lucid has to offer in the coming years. Can’t wait for the Air to hit the streets this year $CCIV

We gotta stop with gigantic cars in the US

Could you do a video on EV drive trains and the possible future of them. The Aptera is using hub motors which are way simpler as they have no drive shafts or gears. Just a powered hub. I love the simplicity of the idea but I'm not able to find much basic information on their real world performance. I'm not sure why they are not more common as they seem like a slam dunk to me- I'm maybe missing something? Or perhaps they are too new on the scene for large vehicles and there isn't much info yet? I'm new to the subject of EV's and I appreciate your video on them.

I'm dissapointed that you didn't mention the Aptera. Perhaps you didn't include it as it is not yet in production but is expected to roll the first ones out later this year. Maybe you could do a whole video on the Aptera? I think they are extremely interesting and rather unique in the EV world. For sure anyone interested in EV's would be interested in them I think.

Sorry buddy, thumbs down 2 min into. Pathetic.

Why are Americans so obsessed with SUV's? There are tons of other EV types around.

@pyrotechnic Its not about the distance, it's about how much room you need in your car when traveling that distance for all your stuff/people.

@Brien Gerber that has nothing to do with SUVs though. More aerodynamic designs should go further.

We drive a lot, and it's a very big country. So accounting for space needed to drive across the country is a pretty common thought that folks have.

Great video. Now can we have one for the rest of the world?

Hummer EV is overdesign truck another mistake for GM....now they are eating dust aginst Tesla..

please please PLEASE make a video on the aptera concept

Cybertruck has over 1.2 million preorders

Dacia Spring EV , ID 4 , Tesla Model Y will be flagship cars of 2021.

Hey Lucid! Selling "air" to the public sounds like a corrupt business practice...

what kind of name is Xpeng? LOL

half a million 100 $ deposits?

Why? What's the answer

I would add Hyundai IONIQ 5 to the list. Hyundai has been making highly efficent EVs for a while and it's newly announced Ioniq 5 looks very promising with great specs, modern design... and it is set for sale this year.

I'm still a few years out until I buy a new car but this has me very excited for the future of EVs.

Wtf is this channel?

If you’re doing EV cars do about the e tron GT

Finally EV's are becoming a thing now...I hope this will help reduce pollution

its called planting more trees

Doesn't that China has the biggest EV market? Nio, BYD, XPeng...

Most of China’s sales are cheap city cars that wouldn’t pass inspection here. Hopefully new Nio and Byton cars change that to give Tesla competition. But Tesla is the most profitable in China also.

WITH TESLA LEADING.

*"I swear: XPeng does not exist 🛑"* *- The Verge*

*"I swear if we don't talk about: XPeng does not exist 🛑"* * - The Verge*

*We don't suppose to talk about the big bad Nio and XPeng hahahaha 🤣* *- The Verge*

Lucid and rivian has a lot of hype but still no product..i hope they get in the market fast.

Yall didn't say a single thing about EV motorcycles.

Please make a video about Nio (or battery swapping strategy)🙏

Yes, more electric car videos!

It's ridiculous the amount of ads on this video. More ads or more cars

Please, do a video on Nio!

please do more electric car videos, I want to learn more about them as when I am at the right age to buy cars, I want them to be all electric. I'd want to be as informed as possible and these videos help a lot! :D

Overpriced cars, poor charging infrastructure and in some cases, poorly maintained charging points.... Nope, not for me thank you

Electric cars are still... cars. It's not sustainable transportation. Start riding your f****** bicycles right now.

That's Tesla truck is sooo desperate to be conceptually innovative that it's f*cking hideous!!! 🤮 That EV hummer though! I just came 🤤

a video about NIO would be cool!

Not my president...

LOL! We’ve heard this year will be huge for electric cars for at least a decade now. Nope. Still not going to happen.

For a sec I thought that first guy was Nathaniel Drew.

Please make a video about china’s foray into EVs

The crooked kite unquestionably wave because stem dentsply list for a pathetic brandy. harmonious, premium hell

It’s not Dieter, im out!

ITS RUBISH FAR TO EXPENSIVE ELON MUSK CAN KEEP IT!

ELECTRIC CARS ARE FAR TO EXPENSIVE I WILL KEEP MY GASS CAR. ELECTRIC CARS MUST NOT COST MORE THEN$4000. TO $5000. ELON MUSK HE CAN KEEP ELECTRIC CARS FOR HIM SELF ARE YOUREAL!

Talk Nio and other foreign EV startups!
