The Deadline for EV Payouts Is Looming

[Outsider Club Header] Mar 07, 2024 By Jason Simpkins The Deadline for EV Payouts Is Looming If you just read the headlines these days, you’d come away thinking electric vehicle sales are suddenly going in reverse. And indeed, a few heavyweight automakers have aided that perception. Ford cut production plans for the electric version of its F-150, saying growth in the market is coming up short of expectations. General Motors temporarily suspended sales of its brand-new electric Chevy Blazer due to performance problems. And last week, Mercedes-Benz said it would delay its goal of becoming an electric vehicle-only brand by 2030. (Though that goal was always an overreach — and a questionable one, at that.) However, despite these setbacks EV sales are actually doing better than you probably think. The Single Most Important Geological Discovery of Our Generation A tiny mining firm is at the forefront of mining the world's largest lithium deposit... And it’s NOT overseas in some politically unstable nation... Every single ounce of this record-breaking deposit is right here in America. With an estimated value of $1.5 trillion, it's about to launch this $5 stock into the stratosphere... [See the full details here.]( EVs accounted for a fifth of new car sales globally in 2023. And U.S. EV sales grew 40% in the fourth quarter of 2023, with total sales of nearly 1.2 million vehicles, according to data from Cox Automotive. That trend was also reflected in individual results of several key automakers who reported strong numbers for the year. For example, Tesla's sales were up 38% in 2023, and Mercedes EV sales increased a whopping 248%. So while there have been some speed bumps, the overall EV trend remains very much intact. In fact, traditional internal-combustion vehicles accounted for 84% of total passenger vehicle sales in the U.S. last year — an all-time low. Conversely, hybrids and electric vehicles expanded their share of the market to 16%. [EV Market Share] There’s no guarantee that 2024 will be as successful, of course. But there’s also plenty of room for optimism. Specifically, better access to charging stations could help accelerate EV adoption. After all, that’s always been the biggest roadblock — the concern most frequently raised by potential buyers. But it’s improving. The Biden administration has made a huge effort to promote EVs, expanding the number of publicly available auto charging ports by more than 40% through a $7.5 billion investment. The ONLY Program Where It PAYS to Be a Member With all the monthly bills you’ve got, wouldn’t it be nice to get paid a little more often? Then you need to learn how to become a member of the ONLY “program” that pays you to join... [Click here]( and learn how to get started getting paid as early as March 14... Or miss out on “the best income-generating opportunity of our lifetimes.” The choice is yours... Better still, Tesla signed watershed agreements with Ford, GM, Volkswagen, Toyota, Hyundai, and others that gave its competitors access to Tesla charging stations. That was huge because Tesla has the most robust network of charging stations in North America, with 17,000 Supercharger connectors. By comparison, the alternative — the Combined Charging System (CCS) — only has 11,000 charging stations available to drivers. And in addition to being more plentiful, Tesla’s charging stations are also faster and better maintained. Which is to say a recent study by researchers at the University of California, Berkeley found that roughly 25% of the CCS fast chargers in the San Francisco Bay Area simply didn’t work at all. So giving non-Tesla drivers access to Tesla charging stations via an adapter is a massive upgrade. And that initiative officially kicked off last week, when Ford made the adapters available to its Mustang Mach-E and Lightning pickup truck consumers. The adapters are free to get until July, at which point they’ll start charging $230 for them. Of course, the biggest winners here are going to be investors — especially those who have subscribed to collect as much $2,850 per month through [“Plug-in Payouts.”]( That’s a little-known program that directs charging station revenue to investors — one that generated $563.3 million in income for its patrons last year. You, too, can be a part of that, but you have to act fast, because the next round of payouts is scheduled for March 19. So if you’re interested, [get the full report here before it’s too late.]( Fight on, [Jason Simpkins Signature] Jason Simpkins [follow basic]([@OCSimpkins on Twitter]( Jason Simpkins is an Editor of Wealth Daily and Investment Director of Secret Stock Files, a financial advisory focused on security companies and defense contractors.
