We're missing the forest for the trees: • Trees = privately owned EVs • The forest = fleet EVs @Hertz has ordered about as many EVs as total sold in US first half of '22 If we care about electrification/climate/emissions we should focus on fleets. And subsidize them 🌲🌲🧵

📈It has become conventional wisdom that EVs are scaling rapidly and will continue to do so 🚧 But maybe that's not true 🧽 There are a lot of challenges facing EVs and it looks like they're only going to become worse... https://t.co/ixVZgAha17

We’ve been critical of where EV subsidies are being directed since the focus is on replicating the current car-centric mobility ecosystem rather than on lowering the amount of energy required to move...

🎢 Ups and downs 1/ Right now, the economy is a bit like a fist coming towards the face, but we don’t yet know how hard it’s going to hit or whether it might just glance off the cheek 🥊💥

5/ These numbers are striking bc the conversation is so focused on how to transition our vehicle fleet to electric powertrains. But the key metric should be the number of electric miles rather than the number of cars... and the energy required to enable these miles
