Both need to die. They're just living off of government welfare.

Best way to make america great is to shut them down.

I am honestly scared about ICE cars dying off in my lifetime. What will I do after my sweet twinger is gone?

>>58855502
China and Russia are on board with the hyperloop, is Elon involved in any way?

>>58855596
That seems stupidly expensive

>>58856264
>China and Russia are on board with the hyperloop,
I doubt that.

>is Elon involved in any way?
Huh? He was the MC during the Hyperloop trials the other day!

Oh great. You saw that thunderf00t video in which he makes a lot of retarded assumptions about fluid dynamics and now you feel like the smartest person on Earth.

Electrics are a lot more fun to drive than comparably priced ICE cars. ICE have a higher top speed, but how often are you going over 60 on a road that is fun to drive on(not a straight line)?
Leasing a new electric car is currently the best bang for the buck way to drive if you want an economy car. A Chevy volt or Nissan leaf are cheap to lease, (in reality much cheaper than the rates stated online) cheap to power, and cheap to maintain. The main thing that goes bad is the battery, but batteries usually take 8 years to wear out. By then you will be leasing another car. Also electric cars are developing rapidly, so it isn't smart to buy one now.

No tangible product after years of development, it's just another scam to jew VCs out of cash like Theranos was.

He assumes that there would be an air "wall" that would hit the capsule instead of a smooth pressure gradient. He demonstrates how a vacuum failure would accelerate the capsule like a bullet by accelerating a metal ball along a glass tube, except he completely ignores the square-cube law, which would show that the acceleration would be negligible IRL, and he also ignores that there is a lot of space between the wall of the tube and the capsule. He then talks about how heat expansion would fuck the whole project, even though the solution is literally in the original whitepaper (pic related). He also talks about how it would be the biggest vacuum chamber, as if that would somehow make it unviable.

but anon! I want some vroom vroom noises, just kidding. I live in a warm shithole island where there are no electric charging stations and everything battery powered overheats, what then? Is this shithole actually saving me from non-ICE cars?

>>58856798
actually no they're making really good progress in regards to weather/temperature and how it impacts the energy source
it's not difficult to create electric charging stations
so no your shithole isn't immune, it just might take a bit longer

$1.4 BILLION. STILL NOTHING.

Not really for electric cars. Buying up front is bad because you either spend money that could be invested, or get a car that needs work or is just shit in general.
Electric cars are still in their infancy, and their batteries need replacement after 8 years. This is an expensive repair. However not much else goes wrong on them and fuel is cheap.
For ~$230 a month you can get a new Chevy volt or Nissan leaf. The upkeep on these is relatively minimal. They are modern cars and are fun to drive because they can accelerate quickly.
When your lease is over, you can get a new, more advanced electric car.
Compare this with buying a new car, which costs a ton, and will depreciate very quickly, or buying a used car which may cost less, but your car won't be as new and you will spend time or money on upkeep. And don't forget that you are going to spend more on fuel.

>>58857640
Keyword: infancy.

A few hundred km of autonomy. Is enough for some people,not for me.

And modern ICE cars require very little upkeep. Even moderately priced ones. When EV shills bring up maintenance they make it look like a mazda 3 is a fucking RX7 lmao.

hyperloop? more like hypeloop


you know they're fucked when they asked students to develop tech instead of building the tech themselves.

it will never work.

wasn't this just a big scam ?

they made a single prototype and didn't even raise money from investors. how is it a scam? they only "scammed" themselves.

don't be fucking retarded.

Whatever happened to that Hyperloop train design contest? I watched the stream for like half an hour but there was nothing happened so I stopped.

ayy

It'll be interesting when something goes wrong and dozens of people suffocate in the vacuum tube

>>58859152
>It'll be interesting when something goes wrong and dozens of people suffocate in the vacuum tube
the tube will shatter/implode and the vehicle, along with all the passenger body parts, will be scattered in a 300 yard radius from the failure point.

>>58859240
So, like that guy said, it will be interesting.

I doubt it will ever be put into production let alone be put into service with humans even traveling in them.

SELF DRIVING CARS

never going to happen. They're just trotted out when someone needs a stock price bump.

>>58855596
I thought the whole tube was supposed to be a vacuum, why is there a fan?

>>58855502
Billions of dollars and it's going to end in failure but luckily they'll get enough couple billion
