If the response is only to the feasibility of the whole project, then all of Kali is out of excuses for its stupidity.

"The top demographic of 2019 EV owners are
middle-aged white men earning more than $100,000
annually with a college degree or higher...." Another demographic summary showed 28% of EV owners had a Doctoral or professional degree and 35% earned over $200,000. What a bunch of losers, right? LMAOROFL

Good example of how CA leads

Did you highlight the part in purple? The author is incorrect. Here's the original 2008 plan from then-Gov Schwarzenegger's(R) administration for the High-Speed Rail. Note that the author of the article you quote is off by a decade in the original estimated 90% completion mark. It was originally scheduled to open in 2030, not 2020 as the article says. Also, note that they left out the fact that all of the numbers quoted were in 2008 dollars and not adjusted for inflation. Just another misleading article.

The HS rail has spanned several administrations from both parties

Well sno don't let your EV get submerged in salt water as they are exploding in many areas of Florida after Ian according to Fire Departments. Ev fires take between 3 and 8 thousand gallons of water to put out and as long as 4 hours to extinguish whereas ICE fires take about 1000 gallons of water. Sometimes later the EVs catch fire again.
Many EV owners have returned to ICE vehicles as EVs not practical, and many other EV owners still have ICE vehicles as good solid backup. EVs are much heavier than their ICE counterparts. A Hummer EV battery weighs almost 3000 lbs in the 9000lb hummer.
Head of Toyota motor company said California mandate of 2035 will not happen and toyota sells the most cars in kalifornia. The Gov was just sounding off for his choir. Business news is your friend if you are not low energy.
