The report by Tony Seba, an economist at Stanford University, finds that forecasts of a slow move from fuel-powered vehicles to electric vehicles envisage drivers continuing to own cars. He argues that the introduction of driverless technology will be driven by companies such as Uber and DiDi, which will invest massively in creating a fleet of vehicles that are so cheap and convenient to use that car ownership will become a thing of the past.Seba said the world is on the cusp of one of the fastest, deepest, most consequential disruptions of transportation in history. “By 2030, within 10 years of regulatory approval of autonomous vehicles, 95 percent of US passenger miles travelled will be served by on-demand autonomous electric vehicles owned by fleets, not individuals, in a new business model we call ‘transportas-a-service.’”No, driverless technology and fuel type ate completely unconnected.
The only connection between the two is a fantasy invented by California environmentalists who, as we all know, mostly just burn CO2 unnecessarily.
Second, I am on the job with the reverse solenoid, all magnetic drive combustion technology which whoops any electric vehicle on the road in end to end CO2 usage.
Some quick numbers
The tax subsidies to electrics come to about 15 k, or 4000 gallons of gas. My engine will get 40 MPH, or 160,000 miles on that, that is the life of a car folks. So, my gas is essentially fully paid for by equivalent subsidies. If I am willing to pay the equivalent electric costs, then I have enough spare energy to cover alcohol from corn. I am not environmentally sound, I cause global warming, but much less than the electrics.
