Why EV can't become a Future? And What else will Roar? | TFT The Flying Talks

Are electric vehicles the solution for our future, or merely an exaggerated fantasy? In this captivating podcast, we explore the reasons why electric bikes may not be the ultimate solution. We discuss infrastructure hurdles, battery constraints, and undisclosed environmental impacts as we consider whether EVs can genuinely take over our roads—or if they simply serve as a transitional phase.

But if not EVs, then what? Hydrogen, biofuels, hybrids—or something we haven’t imagined yet—what will truly roar on the roads of tomorrow? Join us as we uncover the possibilities shaping the future of automotive trends, green mobility, and sustainable transport.

👉 If you’re passionate about cars, bikes, technology, and the changing world of transportation, this podcast is a must-watch! Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe for more deep-dive discussions on the future of mobility.
