My wife's always getting stuff for our baby, and I'm always commenting "well how did anyone have children 100 years ago". Most recent purchase; a nursing necklace. I didn't know such a thing existed until yesterday.
This morning,on Deutche-Velle TV,from Berlin,they said that VW will be converting 3-manufacturing plants over to EV production.They've cut a deal with SK Innovation,South Korea to supply the packs.
Europe already offers 25-different EVs on the market.
Jaguar will offer EV variants for half their models by 2025.
Mercedes-Benz expects 65% of their sales to be EVs by 2040.
ICE has been banned in a number of countries for the near future.
Looks like electric is hitting it's stride.
