Nothing like charging a rental EV to spark a deep hatred of the app ecosystem we live in.
- First download the car rental app which also unlocks the car.
- Then download the car charger app for your origin area
- Drive to destination, stopping for a charge on the way. Charger at gas station is a new app. Download and make new account
- Get to destination. Different charger, so new app with new account. Have now given my credit card number to three new companies as none of these apps take apple pay.
- Destination charger is much slower than gas station charger. Will need to allocate 4 hours to charge the car.

Like I accept longer charging times with an EV, but surely someone must understand for people to feel comfortable with this as a transportation system, the user experience can’t suck this hard.

EVs already hold ~750 GWh of battery capacity—over 3x the world’s grid-scale storage (200 GWh). That’s a sleeping giant. V2G can turn millions of cars into a virtual power plant. China & Europe get it. So do Oz & California. This isn’t future tech—it’s untapped power. ⚡🚗 #V2G #EV #BatteryStorage

smile and drive an EV because you will be contributing to our shared decarbonization energy transition. 😎 take the next step and be a Leader by insisting that your EV manufacturer GROW UP and RECYCLE all of their batteries for a truely sustainable solution to combat environmental destruction today. the ones that tell you that recycling all of the batteries isn't the solution because demand is just too great, sincerely believes you are gullible and stupid. don't fall for it. the accompanying subtext next to the headlines below is something that is simple to understand, and impossible to prevent. So, please, do it not for the planet, the climate or humanity. Do it because you are you.

GM just dropped $35B to electrify its future—massive bet on EVs, battery plants, & a next-gen Bolt with LFP batteries. Safer, cheaper & more resistant. While others panic, GM sees the truth: the market isn’t cooling, it’s heating up. LFP is their lifeline. Tesla isn’t the only game in town. #EV #GM

This old promotional film reminds us that cities in the global North abandoned – on purpose – proven electric solutions for car dependence. A policy choice, not an inevitability.
