    Ford reported an incredible growth rate for its electric vehicle sales with a 139 percent increase on the strength of the Mustang Mach-E and E-Transit. In all, Ford sold 16,779 electrified units in April 2022, with E-Transit sales increasing by 62.3 percent from March and the Mustang Mach-E with its best sales performance since its launch.

    Ford said the 139 percent increase in EV sales could be attributed to the Mustang Mach-E and the recent launch of the E-Transit. While these are currently Ford’s only EVs available for purchase, deliveries of the F-150 Lightning are set to begin in the coming weeks. However, the Mustang Mach-E and E-Transit are surging Ford’s transition to electric cars with an unprecedented growth rate despite tough market conditions.

    Ford to begin shipping F-150 Lightning units to dealers in coming days following ‘Ok-To’Buy’ status

    even better! A lot of money is pouring in to develop this resource. Output is not at commercial scale yet.

    Unless they come up with better battery technology, fully electric vehicles will simply be transitional

    ... not likely.

    Batteries can now power vehicles for 100s of km on a single charge. The technology and chemistry keep getting better every year while the costs keep on dropping.

    EVs will remain for the rest of our lives.

    ... plus for the future of the planet the internal combustion engine has to go away.

    I wasn't talking about range. I was talking about how bad the current battery technology is on the environment. Even if the Salton Sea thing works out, it is very limited. And lithium is not the only resource needed to manufacture batteries. Extraction of most of the other resources are equally bad on the environment.

    Its still a lithium battery just in a solid state instead of liquid or gell.

    I am not a expert on solid state batteries but the articles I read about them I do not see the comparison between a solid state battery and a solid state HDD other than solid state in the name.
