    Tesla නම් දන්නෙ නෑ වෙන රටවල නම් ඕනතරම් තියෙනවා BYD ඵහෙම..

    "It is going to change dramatically": Kia says Chinese brands like MG, Haval, Chery, BYD, GAC, Leapmotor and Geely will permanently reshape Australia's new-car market, putting legacy brands like Toyota, Ford, Hyundai, Nissan, Mitsubishi and Mazda at risk​

    I think the EV market is already saturated, so the demand for new EVs has diminished. To attract new customers, it is necessary to introduce new charging technology and new batteries.
    එක චාර්ජ් එකකින් අඩුම 1000KM ගමන් කරන්න පුළුවන් වෙනකම්......
    චාර්ජින් ටයිම් එක උපරිම පැය 2කට වඩා අඩුවෙනකම්.......
    බැටරි රිප්ලේස්මන්ට් කෝස්ට් එක අඩුවෙනකම් ........

    ICE වාහන වලට වඩා EV මිනිස්සු අතරේ ජනප්‍රිය වෙයි කියලා හිතන්න අමාරුයි

    evs are here to stay.. whether people like it or not ev's gonna win. yes there are some issues specially related to the batteries & charging but it will be solved soon. Why I say EVs gonna win, just analyze the ICE vehicles & EVs in technical perspective, EVs are much more straight forward solution, superior in efficiency, comfort and everything. only the battery tech is the limiting factor, that will be solved in near future.

    Ill buy it after they solve above issues! I dont want drive a car with fucking range anxiety.. Also i hate cutting edge technologies.. never liked those screens infront of cars like giant iPads fuck that.. call me old school but i love those.. Give me a E39 or W124 anyday and ill buy it over a cybertrash

    🌍
    Most giant car manufacturing companies, like Toyota, still prefer to manufacture cars with combustion engines (ICE cars) or hybrid cars because these cars need constant service and spare parts. One ICE car will generate at least 20 years of cash flow for these companies (in some regions, it's 20-35 years). If they stop producing ICE cars and shift to EVs, it will not generate cash like ICE cars (EVs have no moving parts and require less service). Thus, these market leaders are not foolish enough to cut their cash trees.

    All major market leaders are capable of manufacturing EVs, but they will not move to mass production until they see a significant market shift (people still prefer ICE cars due to range and charging time issues).

    However, China is slowly capturing the EV market and continuously improving battery technology. Within the next two years, China is expected to overcome the range and charging time barriers (with some EVs already surpassing 1000 km per single charge).

    Toyota is still trying to invent a hydrogen car because it functions similarly to an ICE car and offers long-term benefits after the sale. However, hydrogen-to-electricity energy consumption is higher, making direct battery EVs cheaper than hydrogen cars. Therefore, hydrogen cars will not be viable in the future unless new low-cost technology is invented.

    But most serviceable parts (even most parts in the car) are not manufactured by the car manufacturer. There are many OEM manufacturers attached to each car manufacturer. So most of the time money goes to them.
    Toyota
    - Denso
    - Aisin
    - ExxconMobil
    - etc
    BMW
    - Brembo
    - BorgWarner
    - Castrol/Shell
    - Mahle

    One of the main reasons is people still prefer ICE over EV as you mentioned. When times come to EV cars with long range and a charge time of less than 10-15min, people will start looking into it unless governments force them with rules and regulations.

    EVs are scam there is no actual environmentally friendly approach. Whats happening is all tailpipe emissions is shifted to somewhere else.

    I totally get you. I'm also an enthusiast of V10, V12 engine sounds & brands like lambo, pagani, bugatti.
    but most of the people like 95%, just want to get to point A - B (home to office, supermarket, etc) with the best comfort (no noises, no vibrations, etc), fast, low maintenance cost. they don't care about engine noises, gear changes or generally speaking driving pleasure.
    they also don't need 1000km batteries. if they can have ~350km range & ability to charge it to 80% in 10 - 15 mins, that's enough.

    only issue is battery cost, charging time & lack of charging stations. battery technology is advancing in really fast pace and many battery techs in R&D pace as well. things only will get better with time. charging station issue is only a investment issue, when we see more EVs on roads, investors will invest more on charging stations.

    owa one na bn. godak ayata one point A to B (home to office, supermarket, etc) with the best comfort (no noises, no vibrations, etc), fast, low maintenance cost. they don't care about engine noises, gear changes or generally speaking driving pleasure.
    ekanisa 350km range ekak thiyena 10 - 15min walin 80% charge karanna puluwan nam, charging station lesiyen hoyaganna puluwan nam + affordable nam echcharai.
    oke battery tech eka improve wena eka thama danata lokuma limitation eka. charging speed, range and cost adu battery ekak awa gaman godak durata problem solved.
