minus-squareassplode@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up7·1 year agoFor real, internal combustion engines are made way better than they used to be. Both in terms of reliability and power output. You can get a small, ICE only (non-hybrid) car that gets 40+ MPG. You can buy a new car with a warranty that makes over 800 horsepower. The IC engine is at its peak. Electric is the future, but the current crop of ICE are incredible machines.
