Electric cars are the future, bark the moonbats. The free market is canceling that future.
Via Slay News:
Lamborghini CEO Stephan Winkelmann told the UK’s The Sunday Times that the company has ended plans to build fully electric vehicles. …
Winkelmann noted that the “acceptance curve” for EVs in Lamborghini’s market segment was flattening and “close to zero.”
EVs are expensive to buy and maintain, likely to burst into flames, unreliable, inefficient, inconvenient to charge, dangerous to transport, worse for the environment than regular cars, and apt to cremate drivers alive. Other than that, what’s not to like?
Lamborghini is not alone. Over the past 6 months, a long list of automakers have announced they are backing away from EV insanity, including Aston Martin, Bentley, Ferrari, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Stellantis, Volkswagen, and Volvo.
No matter how lavish the coercively financed government subsidies, EVs do not make economic sense. No wonder liberals hate capitalism. Under Marxism, economics don’t have to make sense, because Big Government can always confiscate or print more money.
Winkelmann also said Lamborghini intends to continue producing gas-powered internal combustion engines “for as long as possible.”
That is, until liberals achieve the enough power to ban proper automobiles entirely, as they intend to do.
