The whole point was and is to sell cars.
Combustion engine vehicles, yes.
But EVs have a philosophy that is also sold with it.
Um, no. The car companies have one and only one philosophy: to sell cars for profit.
Seems they're having an issue selling EVs for profit though.
Why do you believe that is the case?
[…]
I think your logic unit is broken.
If a car company in capitalist America is unable to create and sell EVs for profit, should we cease all EV production? Should we give up on the goal of reducing combustion engine vehicles?
Perhaps you should sell all your stuff, create a car company, and sell cars at a loss?
No shit.
You failed to answer the question.
Why do you believe that Ford is not selling EVs for a profit? Did you read the article?
