The Nissan guy flat out said when Nissan goes all EV they’ll probably shut down altogether as his EV demand is nil.
This is one of the dumbest things I've ever read.
Why, if the dealer sells no EVs, how would they continue to be in business if thats all Nissan offers?!
Take a minute to think about that.
Dealers don't sell many EVs
right now for various reasons. Price, range, cold weather performance, whatever. But these things will continue to improve and the market for EVs will grow.
Nissan (or any manufacturer) is not voluntarily going to stop selling ICE vehicles if the buyers of those cars are just going to abandon the brand.
And if they are forced to stop selling ICE vehicles due to government regulations, all other manufacturers are going to be in the same boat anyways, so unless Nissan is not competitive, why would they lose buyers to other brands?
It's a dumb statement that was hopefully only made for dramatic effect.
