Europe Is Sold out of EVs Until 2023

Volkswagen just announced something alarming: Any new orders for plug-in vehicles won’t be fulfilled until sometime next year. [Outsider Club Header] Jul 19, 2022 By Luke Sweeney for the Outsider Club Europe Is Sold out of EVs Until 2023 Volkswagen, the world’s second-largest plug-in EV manufacturer, just announced something alarming: Any new orders for plug-in vehicles won’t be fulfilled until sometime next year. That’s some pretty terrifying news. It shows that ongoing supply chain disruptions are starting to choke some of the industry’s recent growth. Critical metals like lithium, nickel, and cobalt are becoming harder and harder to source. Factories that make specialty electronics are shut down indefinitely, either due to harsh lockdowns in China or war in Ukraine. That's not to mention the current unrest in Sri Lanka, political upheaval in Afghanistan, and the Rohingya crisis in Myanmar. The list goes on and on. Point being, the effects are finally starting to reach the end of the chain. The cost to build an EV is starting to increase for the first time since 2010. Higher costs for lithium batteries means the entire green energy sector is feeling the heat. But even with prices soaring, demand hasn't let up. In the first half of fiscal 2022, BloombergNEF reported a 28% increase in demand for battery metals like lithium, cobalt, graphite, vanadium, and manganese. [1] Squeeze This "Cash Spout" for Instant Gas, Grocery, and Rent Money It's a bloodbath out there. But while most investors sweat bullets wondering what to do (and where to find ANY safe haven for their money), income trading expert Keith Kaplan has created [an "income loop" algorithm he's showing his readers]( that actually FORCES instant cash out of every trade. Imagine cash payouts like $760... $1,040... and $680... hitting your account immediately. That's money in your pocket to offset the insane inflation affecting so many of us.

Automakers will have no choice but to pass the costs on to buyers. So that just leaves me with one question: What’s Tesla’s secret?! Elon Musk’s Magic Battery Supply chains are in chaos, Volkswagen is sold out until 2023, and yet Tesla is posting a 600% increase in net income over last year.  How is this possible? As the world’s largest plug-in EV manufacturer, Tesla should be using significantly more resources than Volkswagen. All the way back in 2019, when most of the auto industry was still scrambling to get any type of EV on the road, Tesla was already predicting this type of supply chain shortage. Sarah Maryssael, Tesla’s global supply manager for battery metals, quietly warned a private conference of miners, regulators, and lawmakers that a shortage of EV minerals was inevitable. Could This $6 Virginia Tech Upstart Be About to "Crucify" Coal? Approximately 153 U.S. coal plants are expected to shut down by 2025...

Could take over our crippled coal empire and snatch the $1.14 billion per year in revenues it will leave it its wake. Given that this tiny upstart’s making just over $1 million in revenues... What’s coming could spell a staggering 46,018% gain opportunity for those willing to act soon. What’s in [this breakthrough report]( reveals this may only be the beginning... [So click here now before this opportunity is gone.]( It’s clear that metal shortages have been on Elon Musk’s mind for some time now. For a while, he was even considering buying his own lithium mine. That way he and he alone would control the supply. Like many of his wild Twitter musings, that never materialized. Tesla wasn’t completely immune to the recent price hike in metals. Nearly all of the company’s vehicles saw a price increase as well — some models jumped by nearly $6,000! Still, demand was more than strong enough to continue Tesla’s parabolic sales trajectory. [2] Meanwhile, earlier in the year nickel prices skyrocketed to $50,000 per tonne. Cobalt went to nearly $80,000 per tonne before finally subsiding this month. That type of random increase can seriously derail production. But short of achieving world peace, there’s no easy way to lock down a guaranteed supply of these metals. So what did Elon Musk and his team do? How did they stave off the worst effects of the supply chain crisis? It’s simple: They just designed a battery that doesn't use either of them. The Income Secret Jeff Bezos Doesn’t Want You to Discover! Jeff Bezos is the second-wealthiest man in the world with a net worth of $202 billion. But he didn’t get that rich by himself. There are under-the-radar companies that help Bezos expand his dominance in the retail industry. And they’re paying regular investors like you upward of $48,000 each year. This is a virtually unknown way to collect mammoth-sized payouts courtesy of America's biggest company. Once you're set up, you won't need to do anything again, but this window of opportunity is closing quickly.

He and his team foresaw the situation we are in now and planned accordingly — all the way back in 2021. Meanwhile, most of the industry still hasn't even noticed there’s a problem. Instead of going all-in on lithium-ion batteries, Tesla engineers got to work diversifying their chemistry. Experimenting with different materials meant less disruption if one of them happened to be located in a country controlled by a power-crazed lunatic. In the end, Tesla selected a battery type that offered faster charging time, lower risk of combustion, and significantly longer life span. It uses lithium, like most types of modern batteries, but it lacks some of the rare, expensive materials that have become almost impossible to source. China is hoarding a selection of [priceless patents on this new battery]([.]( Every single one is set to expire this year, giving Tesla a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to become the first automaker to switch over 100% of its inventory.
