@@davelowe1977 You are right sir. My insurance is a little over 2000 a year split between 3 1980s cars. I don't own any diesel cars. Diesel is not practical for money saving like it once was. Used to be diesel and gas cost the same, now diesel is much costlier, negating any mileage advantage. The government does not want us driving at all, it is that simple, but they can't do something as onerous as taking up all the cars at once without losing the election in every state. They have to do it over time by forcing us to buy cars we cannot afford and don't want.

I have an EV. I had to pay road tax just like everyone else in my state. Insurance increase has nothing at all to do with EVs. It's not costing anyone ANY extra money. This is propaganda the morons on the Internet are pushing because they don't like EVs. Blame the oil companies for your issues.

An electric car has saved my family quite a lot. Bought it used, and have driven it for 4 years. Total maintenance required in that time was one set of wiper blades, one set of tires, and a start button (it failed, we replaced the part). $2 in electricity to fill the tank. I think we have saved about $5000 on gas, never mind all the oil and filter changes.

And the brains of the work force that would actually get them out of this mess if they listened to them at that! I knew those record union contracts were going to hit somewhere, and it wasn't going to be the company profit margin either. Another hit to the middle class!

Thanks to early technology advances by Tesla, GM, and Nissan, battery costs have decreased and the electric range has increased. The role of electric cars is critical for greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution goals. In fact, the transportation sector alone is accountable for 30% of emissions in the United States. If any country is serious about decreasing emissions and pollution, EVs must be a part of that plan. As such, many countries around the world have devised plans, goals, or laws to end the sale of gasoline powered vehicles. These gas car bans vary in text, however, the writing is on the wall for car manufacturers.Car makers will need to produce EVs or get left behind. In the United States, EVs currently represent around 3% of new car sales. However, analysts predict that by 2030 that share will rise to around 30%. In fact, in just 2021, there will be over 20 new electric models. With lower prices, more vehicle segments, and longer range than ever before, EVs will surely make a big splash in 2021. Here are the countries and states with BANS on new gasoline powered cars: Year Detail Norway 2025 New vehicles South Korea 2025 New vehicles Belgium 2026 New company vehicles Austria 2027 New taxis or car shares Slovenia 2030 New vehicles Iceland 2030 New vehicles Netherlands 2030 New vehicles Denmark 2030 New vehicles Ireland 2030 New vehicles Israel 2030 New vehicles Sweden 2030 New vehicles India 2030 New vehicles Germany 2030 New vehicles United Kingdom 2030 New vehicles Scotland 2032 New vehicles Japan 2035 New vehicles China 2040 New vehicles Singapore 2040 New vehicles Sir Lanka 2040 New vehicles Taiwan 2040 Bus (2030), motorcycle (2035), cars (2040) Canada 2040 New vehicles France 2040 New vehicles Spain 2040 New vehicles Portugal 2040 New vehicles Egypt 2040 New vehicles Costa Rica 2050 New vehicles Cape Verde - 2035 China - 2040 US States; California 2035 New vehicles New Jersey 2035 New vehicles District of Columbia 2045 Government and private fleet Colorado 2050 New vehicles Washington 2027 Government fleet New York - 2035 (just announced) California Ramps Up Plans to Prohibit Sales of New Gas-Powered Cars April 14, 2022 State regulators unveiled a proposal this week that would limit the sale of new vehicles that use gasoline by the year 2026 and phase them out altogether by 2035. NY State Bans Sales Of New Gas Vehicles October 5, 2022 New York announced it would join California in working toward going entirely emissions free on its roadways by banning the sale of new gas powered vehicles. NEW: Nov 22, 2023 New Jersey Moves to Ban New Gas Powered Vehicle Sales From 2035 The new rule says that at least 42 percent of new car sales in the state must be zero-emission starting in 2027. New Jersey announced a new rule set on Wednesday laying out plans to transition sales of light-duty vehicles in the state to 100% zero-emission by 2035. According to a statement released by the office of governor Phil Murphy, the law, titled the Advanced Clean Cars II rule, will come into effect starting in 2027, where manufacturers must ensure that zero-emissions vehicles represent 42 percent of sales in the state. That percentage will climb with each year until 2035, when it reaches 100 percent. Currently, EVs represent roughly 12 percent of all new vehicle sales, according to the governor's office. The new law will also put more stringent standards in place for traditional ICE-powered vehicles, with the goal of improving air quality in New Jersey communities and high-traffic corridors. “By filing the landmark Advanced Clean Cars II rule, New Jersey builds upon its standing as a national leader in climate action and its participation in the global Accelerating to Zero commitment,” Murphy said in a statement. “The steps we take today to lower emissions will improve air quality and mitigate climate impacts for generations to come, all while increasing access to cleaner car choices. Indeed, together with my Administration’s continuing investments in voluntary electric vehicle incentives, charging infrastructure, and the green economy, these new standards will preserve consumer choice and promote affordability for hardworking New Jerseyans across the state.” While the announcement does not directly mention investment into charging infrastructure, the governor's office points out its continued dedication to providing adequate charging locations across the state, claiming it has helped fund the installment of 2,980 charging stations with 5,271 ports at 680 locations. New Jersey is the ninth state to enact a ban on future ICE car sales, joining California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, and Washington. With over 31 countries and 7 states with gas car bans, it is no wonder the future is destined to be electric. Sooner or later, gas cars will be a thing of the past. Several car manufacturers, such as Volkswagen, General Motors, Hyundai/Kia and, of course, Tesla, have already started building and investing in battery and electric car factories to keep up with these gas car bans. It takes several years for car makers to build these factories and design new electric cars. Therefore, manufacturers need to already begin these investments. Canada will ban sales of combustion engine passenger cars by 2035 It will require growing zero-emission car sales starting in 2026. Canada is joining the ranks of countries and states planning to ban sales of combustion engine cars. Canada has outlined an Emissions Reduction Plan that will require all new passenger car sales to be zero-emissions models by 2035. The government will gradually ramp up pressure on automakers, requiring "at least" 20 percent zero-emissions sales by 2026 and 60 percent by 2030. Officials didn't say whether this applied to a make's product mix or simply the volume of cars sold. The strategy is more forgiving for the workplace - the Canadian government wanted 35 percent of total medium- and heavy-duty vehicle sales to be zero-emissions by 2035, and 100 percent of a "subset" of those machines by 2040. The country is also offering $1.7 billion CAD (about $1.36 billion US) to extend incentives for buying electric cars and other zero-emissions vehicles. The current federal program offers up to a $5,000 CAD ($4,010 US) rebate for EVs, plug-in hybrids and hydrogen fuel cell cars that meet varying price, seat and battery requirements. Some provinces, such as British Columbia and Nova Scotia, offer their own incentives.

no opportunity to go 'postal' or have to deal with anyone's emotional break down that's probably the main reason they did it that way, still shitty in any case.

A lot of hybrid and work-from-home engineers don't have desks. If you DO have to come in, you get a cube assigned by GM after they hand you a box of antiseptic wipes.

I suppose the Arabic community will accommodate them. They got the money!

They are not far from price already!

No one with mega bucks wants to be seen in this firms products, yet they price their vehicles like they're targeting the rich! Absolutely stupid.

Blame Liedenomics. 30% inflation in 3 years.

Cheap outsourced state of the crap engineers will fix all Stellantis problems, they will show Americas and the world how to build good cars, of course these cheap engineers have cero track records of building anything worth mentioning, just like the managers who hired them.

The SHEEPLE will be glad to pay even more, once the Interest Rates come down, and the Equity in their Home goes up again. Borrowing to Infinity and Beyond. You Reap what you Sow. The Whirlwind will be Catastrophic.

We have to accepted the reality.West is in great decline.China and East is in ascendency.

Stellantis engineers are mostly from first world countries. It's just difficult to fire people in France and Italy. The real inflation number is over 50% which is why Stellantis increased prices near 50%. After a bought of inflation like this, it will take a decade or more for prices to stabilize and wages to be in parity.

I dunno, I wouldn't want to be fired then go into traffic. Maybe it was better that way.

Think it was done for security purposes imo. That many disgruntled employees may be too much to handle.

They were probably afraid they'd get the snot beaten out of them if they tried to do it face to face. Something tells me Stellantis is headed for a fall.

Worlds full of cowards 😂😂😂😂🎉

Saves walking them out with security.

Well, Chrysler now only sells one model. And Dodge 2. So it might not take even 5 years...

And when/ if it does, don't think of ANY bailout crap. Taxpayers have done it twice, now it's on you!

US Tax dollars to bail out a French company? Yeah, probably not. @@user-mr3ct1dm9p

I disagree. Ram and Jeep are/were the richest and most profitable brands in the Stellantis brand lineup. The Chrysler and Dodge brands are a different story and could easily disappear. No, the problem here is that Stellantis faces an uphill battle in integrating a bunch of brands that came from different places and they are simply not handling it well. They were apparently very profitable until recently but that came from starving the brands of development money and raising MSRP's to unsustainable levels.

Since the UAW strike a little over 18,000 UAW members have lost their jobs and more will come. Shawn Fain may have won the battle but he's losing the war.

GREAT POINT !!!!!!!!

I've always said that exactly.

NEVER EVER GIVE 2 WEEKS.....ALWAYS JUST QUIT............................DONT BE A CUCK!!!!

Hell, I work in Healthcare, we are forced to give a 30 day notice. If we fail to do so, they pay out the last check in minimum wage !

They usually have you sign something to strengthen the nondisclosure and give up your rights or you don’t get your lousy severance.

Because you are an idiot… i guess?

Because I can, my money,my business!

​@@timr9358you mean the bank's money 😅 come on be honest 😂

Very true, this is the other half of the problem.​@@TactileCoder

@@timr9358you the problem with these outrageous prices on over engineered pos vehicles

You’re smart, I try to tell every young kid “no corporation is gonna do you any favors out of the goodness of their hearts.” If they could pay us in company money and have to spend it at the company store, they would.

Loyalty to a company is a typically American thing, the rest of the world works for a living and has no loyalty to the company they work for, and Americans still think that work is the most important thing in life.

You can't put loyalty in the bank.

@@Polack-ml9fhand make your kids work for them.

Except for the Japanese.@@patricec.2957

Don’t forget the pizza parties!!! 😂😢

You ain’t never lied!

As a retired engineer, I completely agree with this statement. So much is lost when cutting like this. The people making those decisions have no idea of the complexity of technical positions. The company will pay a price that unfortunately is unquantifiable but significant.

Reminds me of Boeing.

Engineers are unfortunately a dime a dozen these days. Outsource to foreign nations at a fraction of the cost + no retirement plans +….

Chrysler used to be a real engineering company too, once upon a time.

​@anthonywalker6168 and it equals worthless product

The winner takes it all,.....meanwhile A.I. does the job for free,...money for nothing and the chicks for free.

​@@anglosaxon244AI can't even show a picture of a white person. I doubt it can actually do anything correct at the moment.

This country (USA) is finished, finished I tell you. - comedian George Carlin

Daimler tried to get rid of it when they bought Chrysler, but it was too cost prohibitive to remove.

Still 💩

Don't worry the American voter will still vote to give them corporate bailouts.

It hasn't been Chrysler for a long time

And they display the gay flag. That tells us everything we need to know. Workers took it in the r**r
