TESLA AND POLESTAR HAVE EPIC TANTRUM AND DIVORCE T-DUB

EV Channels Review

This video critiques the Australian automotive industry's lobbying efforts, particularly focusing on the Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries (FCAI) and its boss, Tony Weber (tdub). The reviewer highlights a public spat between the FCAI, Polestar, and Tesla, stemming from proposed fuel efficiency standards. Tesla and Polestar are criticized for their dramatic exits from FCAI discussions, with the reviewer questioning their commitment to genuine environmental action versus self-interest. The Polestar 4 is singled out as an example of an inefficient, heavy EV with questionable environmental credentials, especially when compared to more affordable ICE vehicles like the Hyundai Santa Fe. The video also touches on Volkswagen's history of emissions fraud and Toyota's misleading practices. Ultimately, the reviewer expresses skepticism about the effectiveness of current lobbying groups in addressing climate change, suggesting a reliance on individual action and perhaps even prayer.
