    hi Sam, I have been looking at electric vehicle discussion on You Tube both positive and negative and a couple of things really stand out, the first is how many negative
    views there are it is almost overwhelming which leads to a very obvious conclusion that there is a lot of fear about the future of ICE cars and or oil companies and vehicle manufacturers
    are influencing these sites, secondly no one seems to be discussing the positive health benefits that cleaner air will bring to all of us including the Nay Sayers

    Kia EVs are superb, first Soul in 2014 was a phantastic car, unfortunately heavy degradation, but the car was so nice to drive, 2nd version did not have this high degradation, 3rd generation (new sould with 64kWh battery) is a pretty perfect EV, and newer models like Niro, EV6 are among best EVs ever created.

      that is pessimistic, even here in Whangarei evs are quite popular, including the ones that have just been released like the EV9. Obviously if you no longer get an over $7k rebate sales will plummet. However, importers have dropped prices here, and I predict in 12 months we will see a much larger variety than now, and also more price competative, it is already starting, watch this space!

    If a car company manufactures EVs in the US that is great for Americans but means nothing to the other 99.5% of countries and 90% of people in the world because they will never be exported from the USA to the world since they are just too expensive. The fact is that the US and their products matter less and less to the world since nobody outside of America can afford them and they are made much more cheaply elsewhere.
