Can we add The Guardian to a tabloid ban? These articles are shit. They can’t even cherry pick their own data consistently.
the graph in the article shows SUV sales are still less then cars. Fine print: only in rich countries
to even come close, they have to lump in EV SUV’s, which doesn’t add to the CO2 they are complaining about.
ahhhh it takes more effort to counter bad journalism which is why it’s so prevalent but here a rundown:
• 20% CO2 production is for conventional SUV’s. This doesn’t include electric which has the highest adoption rates.
• More EV vehicles are classified and built as SUV’s due to weight, limiting adoption of electric cars, but is still increasing at 55%
• Carmakers don’t necessarily want bigger and heavier cars; that is more material to buy. They want to make what sells and bigger, heavier cars have better crash test ratings.
Just more churn from the incite and radicalize machine: The Guardian.

But it’s higher margins, and they can phase out lower margin vehicles by marketing them less and producing fewer of them.
