Hey SammyJ, I hear you, but there are some new emerging tech solutions that might help cut costs in the long run. Plus, more awareness could push the gov’t to reintroduce those incentives. Gotta stay hopeful and push for change!

The government’s EV targets are a joke without proper infrastructure and incentives. Talk is cheap, action is what counts, and there’s precious little of that.

What’s next? Flying cars by 2040? Can’t wait to see how they plan to mess that one up too.

The initial investment is high, but the long-term benefits, including reduced emission costs, could outweigh these. It’s a complex issue that requires nuanced discussion.

Seems about right for gov’t work. Maybe they’ll figure it out before it’s too late. Not holding my breath though.

But technology evolves rapidly! With enough public demand and governmental push, we could see a major shift soon. Let’s stay optimistic!

Besides, if charging stations are as rare as Auto says, owning an EV sounds like more hassle than it’s worth right now.

Classic. How do they expect small businesses like mine to invest in EVs for delivery if the cost just keeps going up? Not all of us got money to burn.
