hundreds of tesla owners almost froze to death IN CHI


CHICAGO — With Chicago temperatures sinking below zero, electric vehicle charging stations have become scenes of desperation: depleted batteries, confrontational drivers and lines stretching out onto the street.


“When it’s cold like this, cars aren’t functioning well, chargers aren’t functioning well, and people don’t function so well either,” said Javed Spencer, an Uber driver who said he had done little else in the last three days besides charge his rented Chevy Bolt and worry about being stranded with a dead battery — again.

Spencer, 27, said he set out Sunday for a charging station with 30 miles left on his battery. Within minutes, the battery was dead. He had to have the car towed to the station.


“When I finally plugged it in, it wasn’t getting any charge,” he said. Recharging the battery, which usually takes Spencer an hour, took five hours.

These fukknuts did what their masters wished for them (buying a tard-car) so they get what they deserve. Fukk it.

EDIT: And one can only wonder, wouldn't they have thoroughly tested these electric cars in cold weather and the charging stations (that run on a by-product of oil) before releasing them to the public?

I mean, everyone says Elon is a genius, but ouch this sure looks like the opposite. He looks like a moron. Really, he's just a con-artist like Trump.

‘Just another debacle’: Ford is cutting production of its electric pickup — the same truck Joe Biden drove to push EVs in America. Former Chrysler CEO says infrastructure is 'not there'

It's not about "infrastructure" not being there, its the fact they are pieces of shit. Look at how these car companies do what they are told by the Guvahmint. Changing around factories and investing all this money in this shit, and now they are finding out its a "DEAD HORSE". What's next? Well, they will once again get bailed out.

The car corporation is just another racket that gets subsidies from the guvahmint over and over again. They are another Bernie Madoff but on an extremely larger scale. Con-artists 101.

Biden is just the fall guy. He doesn't know what time it is, and all he is and Trumptard are.........are orators for the elite and the corporations. They try to make all this shit political, but that's all bullshit. Its a dupe on all WE THE PEOPLE.

And that former Chrysler overpaid CEO that scammed millions from the US taxpayer - oil, that's right OIL is the infrastructure for these cars. NO OIL - NO CHARGING.
