Research shows that auto plants grew their workforces
after transitioning to electric vehicle production

. . .

Yea ???

BET those makers are ALREADY working on how to
ELIMINATE those extra, annoying, humans - and
more - from the production line.

The "boost" is FAKE - an artifact of EV making
being un-optimized.

An ICE has maybe 20,000 parts. An electric motor under twenty,

It's just inevitable that assembly costs are going to drop with EVs.

Samsung has announced their latest solid-state EV battery, which boasts
an energy density of 500 Wh/kg, is capable of a 600-mile charge in nine
minutes and a 20-year lifespan.

There will continue to be some Rev 1 problems, but the future is getting
clearer and clearer.
