When one thinks about electric vehicles, one thinks immediately about Tesla and Elon Musk. This has been so for the past 15 years. Musk’s vision for EVs is dominant and extremely influential. But there is now a new, and important, voice, in the person of Luca de Meo, who is the new CEO of the Renault Group and its EV Ampere division . The two CEOs have, on key points, very differing visions, and i...

Today, what about comparing the incomparable? What about comparing apples and oranges? What a weird idea you will say! So let’s explain. Both apples and oranges contribute to your nutrition. They largely fulfill the same function. When it comes to cars, we need to think about their main function, which is to bring yourself and passengers, possibly with a cargo, safely, from A to B. With electric v...

This new series of talks with Dan McTeague & Jean-Pierre Kiekens is about electric vehicles and their multiple implications for energy, mobility, affordability, economic development and public policy.

Over a 10 year period, the report finds that EV ownership would cost a staggering $48,698 more without the billions of dollars of governmental favors to manufacturers and owners.

“We dug out our grave with CyberTruck” declared Elon Musk just days ago. This baffled many, yet did not come as a surprise to others. It’s nearly 4 years ago that the vehicle was unveiled. There was huge excitement at the time. Imagine: an electric truck, with a completely novel look, a decent range and competitive pricing. But while there is still excitement, there appears to also be real problem...

We dive here into market considerations. What will the market for EVs look like in the US and Canada in the next years.

The Canadian automotive sector, which is mostly located in Ontario, has always been highly dependent on the existence of a strong market, and of course on market access, in the US. Will such high rel...

There is a massive push for electric vehicles in Ontario, with billions and billions of taxpayers money being poured into them. But does that make any sense? Let's attempt to figure this out. This analysis focuses on Ontario, but is to varying extents applicable to other jurisdictions, as the push towards EVs is found not only in Ontario and Canada, but also in other jurisdictions such as the UK a...

The key argument advanced by the proponents of electric vehicles is that they greatly reduce CO2 emissions. However, this doesn't seem substantiated, and this has major public policy implications. When you read the writings of organizations promoting a bold, rapid transition towards electric vehicles, the core argument is the reduction in CO2 emissions, as a way to combat global warming. While the...

After all, range anxiety is well known when it comes to electric vehicles. And the industry is working hard to improve ranges, we hear. So why bother? It wasn’t serious academic articles but rather some videos, gleaned here and there on the web, that brought me to write this post, a bit for the fun, but also to illustrate the very peculiar situation in which the car industry and society in general...

There is presently a massive push in many countries, in the EU, North America and elsewhere, to increase the number of electric vehicles (EVs) and to progressively phase out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. This massive push relies on massive subsidies, stringent regulations and sometimes protectionist measures, as EVs presently are not cost competitive and are far from offering the same...
