ExxonMobil’s calculations predicted that oil demand in 2040 would be equivalent to what the world needed in 2013 or 2014. Woods explained to CNBC that the company was still profitable at that time.

Best looking color scheme I've seen on a Tesla.  Single pic isn't justice here.  Your POV, lighting and time of day makes this really cool looking

I wonder if all roadways will be electric by 2040. Can't make asphalt without oil.

The Exxon guy says oil demand will remain high in 2040, just down a bit from today.  And of course IF all NEW cars are EVs, many many cars on the road will be ICE.

The replacement rate would be rather slow even so with ~17 million new cars a year and ~300 million cars total in the US.

It'll be faster in Europe.  Slower in Africa ...

I hope not.  It's pretty ugly, just like all the other small SUVs out there these days.

There is a supply constraint on EVs right now, and it's still a small market.  I don't know where real demand is after first adopters.  Obviously more folks are interested today than 2-3 years ago.  It's a fascinating development I think and could either completely change a large industry in two decades, or something else.

Yeah, I'm glad I'm not in the market.

Used car prices look insane to me.

Cadillac Lyriq first drive: A year early and dollar long at $60K - Electrek

At just over $60,000, this is a phenomenal car. GM/Cadillac did have to cut some corners to get one to us this year, but the final product is still one of the most luxurious EVs on the market. Plus all of the 2023s are already sold and I have a feeling the 2024s reservations are going to go quick as well.

I can’t wait to try the AWD version with Super Cruise for a longer drive. Cadillac when!?!?
