Anyhow moving on to rational point making .. currently manufacturers are able to sell what they want and buy credits off tesla and the like. Come 2025(UK) they can'tdo so and will be Mandated to sell a proportionof theirstock as pure ev's.. so guess what more EV will have to be sold so their price falls and ice prices rise. If I was in the market for an ev and own an ice I'd hold out till then at least.
I know who I'll be voting for KRS, I'm sure you can guess but don't say it!

Yes finally we are in an agreement. As if the hatred towards tesla offends me in any way lmaooooooo

I got my tesla because it's the best EV you can get today, PERIOD. Will be that way for many years to come.

When another car makers offer what it can offer for it's price point, i jump ship.

But either way EV's on the way!!!!

Like tom brady says in the commercial, "LETS GOOOOO!!!!"

Brother, why do you keep engaging him? In my 20 years of being on forums I’ve never seen a more perfected troll. It’s embarrassing now. I don’t even read his posts but I know exactly what he’s saying. You’re not going to convince him on anything. He’s perfectly fine with government mandating this. He’s convinced that Tesla makes the best EV’s, which is patently absurd. He’s obviously has never been in another manufactures EV before like Porsche or Lucid. But it doesn’t matter. I would just ignore him like I do.

Agreed no offence to him/her as anyone is allowed their viewpoint..I don't think I've got much to learn from their posts.

This, all of it. I don't even open up the thread when I see he's the last person who posted on it. I have to wonder how someone can be such a complete and total tool. We can all do a bit of trolling, I've been guilty of it but honestly he is adding nothing to this thread, just ignore him. I have to wonder how much time he spent with his head in the toilet in school.

Software updates cause the system computer to redo a deep look at the battery on reboot resulting in prompts after an update that the battery is close to failing. It doesn't cause the failure but is "associated" temporally with the prompts. Thus it can look like the update caused the failure.

Updates or no it's still a contributory factor in a battery kill meaning a scrapped EV.

No. Software updates don't kill the battery. Just cause a battery failure detection to occur due to the nature of the software querying the battery more on a reboot/update process. The batteries in general are lasting as advertised and are doing well. Just like most motors last a long time the batteries do also.

Yours may be fine but in any case I think they're on a sticky wicket facing a lawsuit.

Tesla has had QC issues for sure. But this lawsuit is going nowhere. The cars are having true battery failures and not software update induced failures. The batteries will eventually fail on any EV just like motors don't last forever.

I'll see how it develops with interest, hopefully Musk's/gubment's influence doesn't sneak in somewhere.
