How long do you think until the petrol engine is phased out by electric? It's only a matter of time because everyone seems to be sucking Elon's left nut over these electric engines

Just because he's getting sucked off doesn't mean that the company is going to enter the mainstream market any time soon. Or that other people are going to start phasing out everything for electric overnight.

Bolt is a good step forward, but it's not going to happen overnight.
Colton Price
Probably another 100 -150 years.

Until their raw range and weight improves, never

How long until even the most gullible retards realize that Tesla for the most part is a clever marketing scheme that created yet more Silicon Valley billionaires? The number of cars they sell is disappearingly small compared to the overall market (0.1% in 2016 to be precise). I don't think they've even reached half a million cumulative sales so far.

This seems like a decent enough place to ask, but why hasn't Hydrogen taken off aside from infrastructure reasons?
Cars powered by it seem perfectly normal, there's a shit load of it, and it just makes water? The techs there and there's been low volume every day Fuel cell cars, but nothing really been done to get them out in ernest and I'm left thinking why? It doesn't have the disadvantages electricity does and it solves the whole fuel thing every eco maniac is screeching about.

>aside from infrastructure reasons
No other reasons, but the infrastructure is absolutely critical. Fossil fuel cars sell because you can refuel them at every corner. Electric cars soooorta work because you can slowcharge them at home and because their producers have taken measures to install a quickcharger network where you can forcefeed electricity into the battery at the expense of battery life. I can only speak from my perspective, but I think there's a whole of 8 hydrogen refueling stations in the entirety of Germany. Unless you live near one of those 8 stations and only use your expensive hydrogen fuel cell car for local drives where you can make it back home you're going to be fucked. And no one's willing to build thousands of hydrogen refueling stations across the world when there's no demand yet. Fossil fuels have to become much more expensive to make the prospect of hydrogen fuel cell cars realistic. I mean, I like them, but right now they can't compete with an existing infrastructure.

Charge time and range will make these things only practical for urban and barely outside urban areas.
