There's no purge going on. Just natural selection. ….
It's do-or-die time for the legacy manufacturers, and there's nothing special about them... If they disappear, their customers will still have choices, just as customers of Studebaker, AMC, Packard, and other dead brands did when those brands couldn't compete anymore.
100% incorrect. There is no natural selection. Doing a little research before blasting those of us that realize EV, in its current form, CANNOT, WILL NOT, ever be the way forward would help you a ton.
The EV market is a market that never existed. It was a pipe dream through the ‘90’s and that’s all it ever would have been. Until, until, the government falsely propped it up. Go ahead and scream the values of Tesla all you want, it’s an absolute set-in-stone fact that they would have gone belly up over a decade ago if it weren’t for your and my tax dollars. The government subsidized Tesla, offered tax cuts and such to buyers, all in an effort to create a market that doesn’t exist. In the mean time, they made Elon the richest single person on the planet, and have now forced every other manufacturer to build vehicles, that no one wants, for a market that doesn’t exist, and without any viable infrastructure to support it.
Irrefutable fact.
Then your second paragraph, oh my. How obtuse we can be….
Comparing any manufacturer today, to marginally niche manufacturers of old that existed in a far more stable economic world and a saturated playing field, well bud it just doesn’t work. The ripple effect today would/could be massive. Don’t kid yourself
You’re swinging and missing
