Quality will follow down, all the way to the gutter. Interesting that the click-loving ginger EV uberlord has discovered that he can get more likes by being critical of EVs.

The goal now is to stop using it as a fuel and contributing to global warming. It would be a nice thing if bioscience can come up with a feasible way to replace drilling for the stuff as well. And to replace plastics of which the microparticles are now found in human tissue and even in blood clots.

placeholder Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 7 hours ago, transam said: Blood clots...................🤣 Yes blood clots. Microplastics Found in Blood Clots in Heart, Brain, And Legs Earlier this year, we got news from a landmark study that microplastics – tiny shards of plastic shed from larger chunks – had been found inside more than 50 percent of fatty deposits from clogged arteries. It was the first data of its kind to draw a link between microplastics and their impact on human health. Now, a new study from researchers in China reports finding microplastics in blood clots surgically removed from arteries in the heart and brain, and deep veins in the lower legs. https://www.sciencealert.com/microplastics-found-in-blood-clots-in-heart-brain-and-legs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Pib Posted May 31 Popular Post Share Posted May 31 This Youtube video talks the new BYD spare parts warehouse/center in the Bangkok area. Spare parts availability should definitely be a consideration in what vehicle you buy as all vehicles eventually needs spare parts under or out of warranty, get into accidents, etc. At around 6:25 min into this 10 minute video they also briefly show the traction battery room and the guy says they have 30 traction batteries in the room....you will see the large wooden crates containing the traction batteries. Yeap...readily available spare parts within country is a good thing. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post vinny41 Posted June 1 Popular Post Share Posted June 1 Great Wall To Close Down European Headquarters, Cancel Further Expansion Great Wall Motors will reportedly shut down its European offices in Munich in August, laying off 100 employees. The automaker will remain in existing markets but cancelled expansion plans to other European countries. Slow sales played a pivotal role in the decision, as Great Wall Motors had only 6,300 registrations in Europe in 2023. https://www.carscoops.com/2024/05/great-wall-to-close-down-european-headquarters-cancel-further-expansion/ In 2023 GWM registered 6,746 ORA's in Thailand compared to 6,300 for the whole of Europe for the same period 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
