Rowan Akinson aka Mr. Bean Isn't A Fan Of Electric Cars
[MOTORIOUS] While it’s certainly fine for people to buy and love electric cars, there’s a strange phenomenon whenever someone with a platform says anything less than positive about them. This time it’s British comedian and certified gearhead Rowan Atkinson (aka Mr. Bean) stirring the pot while committing blasphemy against the EV godhood.Learn about Rowan Atkinson’s supercar collection here. In an essay he penned for The Guardian, Atkinson said recently he feels "a little duped" by EVs. Now that’s the type of sin worthy of cancellation, but the man really blasphemed by encouraging people to keep driving their older internal combustion engine cars as a means of conservation. Outrageous! Explaining himself, Atkinson mirrored what many others have said: EVs could one day be great and everything the fanboys claim they are now, but the problem is battery designs need more time to advance to that point. He also hits another sore point, calling EVs "a bit soulless." Hey now, we think a giant iPhone on wheels has a lot of soul (that’s sarcasm, for anyone who can’t tell). The man really must enjoy poking the bear or thinks the borderline hysterical, obsessive push to get everyone to buy an electric car has gone too far. Posted by: Besoeker 2023-09-06 |
