You don't want pistons in your Kiayundia.
It would seem if it's 600 miles normally-what affect would cold weather have? If it's 50%-that's still 300 miles of range with a 10 to 20 minute stop to refuel. In addition-cold weather range issues will be solved eventually.
"If it doesn't have 1,000 range and charge in 30 seconds, it's just not a valid product".OR-the 90% fewer moving parts than an ICE machine. This Mercedes just went over 600 miles on a SINGLE CHARGE. Over the "bladder range" of many.
Mercedes-Benz EQXX Shows It Can Go the Distance with 621-Mile Road Trip
The route split congested European city traffic and autobahn travel and convinced us this car is not a science project but something we'd like to see in production—and soon.
The electric cars are coming BITOGers.....

While your points may be valid all these issues will be addressed. These problems are not insurmountable nor permanent.No one is saying that. Stop being blind to reality. California's power grid is stressed to the max, just as it sits now. They are plagued with brownouts, and rolling blackouts every time the hot weather hits, and people crank up the A/C.... Which is every Summer.
California is also the one pushing the hardest with all of these silly, insane electric car mandates. Along with wanting to outright BAN gasoline powered vehicles. That's preposterous.
California proposes ban on sale of gas vehicles by 2035
California regulators are drafting a ban on new gas vehicle sales by 2035
If everyone in that state is forced into buying an EV because of government mandates, and they can no longer drive their gas car, the entire electrical power grid will collapse. It's already strained beyond it's breaking point as it currently sits.
Again, this is the cart before the horse. You have to be able to produce the additional power, BEFORE you inject hundreds of thousands of additional vehicles that will draw on it beyond it's capabilities.
California, along with every other state that's pushing these things, is doing nothing of the sort. They're all to busy screaming, "green"!
And remember, the same crowd who is pushing for all of this "green" EV crap, are the same one's who HATE nuclear energy, or any power plant that runs on fossil fuel. So where is the power going to come from to run your electric wonder machines?
No there weren't. But they didn't place bans on horses either. You can't legislate capitalism.

It would seem if the powers that be want EVs on the road and the power grid needs to be updated....you can't have one without the other and attitudes would need to change for this step to be taken. Am I wrong in my thinking?
The post of this thread was about the Ioniq, and then you launch into a diatribe about CA's power grid and how a state in which you don't live is stealing your freedoms. I get it, "they'll pry your pistons from your cold dead hands" or something like that...
