Oh dear. I like the way this guy talks, even though he's a bit smug.
Why do you waste so much time listening to these anti-ev twerps whe love the sound of their own voices so much that they repeat themselved endlessly.
Why has he never spoken out about the number of London's diesel buses that have gone up in flames over many years, shown in the photos that I've linked to previously? And of course these atacks are also political and often blatantly racist against our Mayor Sadiq Khan
You'll see more photos of these burning diesel buses
in this link, above all the current posts about our electric bus fires.
The anti EV brigade are so fanatical that they even completely fake electric bus stories -
Information Link.
Eventually it will dawn on them that we are going BEV whether they like it or not. Most of our newer ones in London are coachbuilt here on Chinese BYD chassis, the same buses that are used in their tens of thousands in Chinese cities without going up in flames. Those that have burnt have mostly been the RM2 Hybrids introduced by Boris Johnson against all advice, but they are being phased out early so that will be a reducing problem.
Some of the more recent design electric buses have also caught fire, perhaps to be expected since they are relatively new tech in continuous high stress use, but it's not so extraordinary to those of us familar with the so many of our diesel only buses that have burnt out so catastrophically, as the photos in the above and previous links I've posted show.
We in the pedelec world lived through similar inthe 2000s when Li-ion batteries were first used in our bikes, but progress has almost completely got rid of that problem for us. Now it's the problem of e-scooters and home built e-bikes that are causing bother and that will have to be addressed, but none of this means that lithium batteries are intrinsically bad. It just means we have to learn how to develop them and use them properly.
