    And all it took was scapegoating a reviewer kid. (Don’t look at the stock prices before that, please)

    Why isn’t adapting ICEs into EVs a thing? Why more lithium-based ewaste with build-int obsolescence?

      Adapting is very labor intensive, so very expensive. Somewhere between $20.000 and $65.000 depending on the car. They do that for old timers where somebody is willing to pay for it for the love of the car to keep it running when the engine is busted. But with that price tag, you can just as well buy a second hand or even a new EV.

        So yay landfills? So caring for the environment is only important when it’s cheap?

          Dude. You asked a question. People have been trying to answer it as best they can.

          Don’t use that as an excuse to complain about something else without at least acknowledging their willingness to put the effort in.

          Either that, or don’t ask questions, just make a rant comment
