Lol. No. I’m just a mechanic and a tech nerd and toyota and Honda look like they’ll be the first companies to release vehicles with solid state batteries. Right now when an all electric battery goes tits up it will cost too much to be worth replacing. For instance, a chevy bolt replacement with install goes for over $15,000. Teslas are over $15,000, and most others range out between $4500 and $22,000 dollars. Lithium batteries are guaranteed to fail at some point earlier than a vehicles lifetime it could have spent on the road. Having to spend $10,000+ dollars on a car that’s over 12 years old is basically a recipe for sending it to the scrap yard. Total waste.
Dude are you in Toyota’s paybook?
Considering how skewed the sector of hybrids is right now (dominated by Toyota), they may actually be right about that.
