The week's question

The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I love "Red Barchetta", one of my favorite songs from a band that I was a big fan of back in my teens. Thanks for bringing that to mind. :)

Good writeup of the myriad challenges faced by the auto industry. I think that battery EVs, full electric no ICE, are the future of personal transportation, but I acknowledge there will be room for pure ICE, mild hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles for decades to come, especially in the truck/large SUV market. It will take a long time to ramp up battery production to the level it will take to replace gas and diesel.

It's amazing how advertising for EVs dominates the airwaves this year.
