I've restored two older vehicles, car & motorcycle. Every system touched, ECU to o2 sensor, friction plates to differential seals. Completely rebuilt from scratch, end to end, on the wiring harness.

100+ years of development and refinement, still gets much less than 5% of energy into moving you after drivetrain losses.

Debunk it.

Good thing gasoline is waaaay more energy dense than current gen batteries. Now ima go put a mere 36 pounds worth of gasoline in my car, so I can drive around for a range that takes a 1,000 pound battery to do in an EV. Bye!

Less energy dense, and outperforms the hell out of gasoline simultaneously. What an embarrassing thing to be proud of 😂 have fun.
