Yep tomorrow the green revolution will be gone, no EVs available for sale and trump will be up in the polls. Time to wake up Eco.

I guess you failed the general intelligence test again...in fact, there was no evidence in that article that the reduction in the output of EVs is related to anything in the "transition", but rather a failure in the plans to make a transition. That sop about changing the production equipment is clearly that, a sop. There is nothing to support it. What you have there is a failure of EV sales, pure and simple, very much in line with the French and German loss of sales volume and the increase in sales of fossil fuel vehicles.

Thank you. That helped. I have to ask: "What is the natural market limit for petroleum"?

Your own administration rejects the idea that hybrids are acceptable as electric vehicles, so that is just more fossil fuel vehicles. So your country stopped production of vehicles in June? Nothing in July, August, September? I guess not.

Natural market limits are the sum of demand for a particular product. For production levels beyond that, you will get price declines on increasing unsold inventories, such as have developed in the EV business. You need to calculate the elasticity of the demand curve for the product to estimate the actual decline in sales.

Really? It seems that you have missed the point again, and I will bet that you are older than 3 years. The EU government supports for EVs were removed last year, about August 2023, and since that time we have seen a veritable meltdown in EU sales of new market EVs. That should tell you everything that you need to know.
