Title.

So. Electric cars are gaining in popularity, therefore the popularity of gasoline will be going down. Won't the price go down, leaving the oil industry in trouble?
Its gonna be bad for the business man who are controlling the oil industry and its gonna be a good thing. Electric cars are good solution to expensive price of gasoline. Aside from environment friendly, electric cars are cheaper.

Well, are electric cars competing against the oil industry?

Then yes it's bad for the oil industry. If I open a supermarket next to another supermarket, then it's bad for that other supermarket.

I know a person in Kentucky with a similar story, it hurts it.

Even though electronic vehicles are getting popular, many people will still tend to use gasoline generated vehicles because electronic cars are too costly that makes it so expensive to become affordable and it do really need a lot more energy to reach miles away compare to gasoline generated vehicles that can reach far places with just a couple of liter contained in the tank. It do takes up so much time for charging so as for now, electronic cars are not a threat to oil companies and even the oil industries.

I believe so, but the question is, is electricity cheaper than oil. Thank you

Whenever the oil crash comes, it will be only the beginning. Every year that follows will bring more electric cars to the road, and less demand for oil. Someone will be left holding the barrel.

For me, Yes off course are electric cars bad for the oil industry and that is because electric cars dont use allot of oil you know so they need allot less then before. So when everybody is going to use electric cars it will be very bad for the oil indutry ..
Bad for the oil industry as well as in the government as we all know the impact of Oil Industry in each country especially in middle East where in a lot of company were built because of them, when it happens that there is discovery or invented that does not need Oil then Middle East will be in trouble/crisis.

Saudi Arabia is introducing a 5% VAT next year to help stabilize their budget due to all the lost income from oil production. So it's clear that the low oil prices are having an impact on their ability to run their country, and it will continue to be a problem as world oil consumption slows and starts to drop in the coming years. Electric cars will account for a large percentage of lost oil consumption.

Of course they are, oil is going nowhere in the long run.

Yeah its bad for oil industry becuase they bankrapt if electric car appear, they need to protest if they want an stable and good income. But the reason why electric car created, to protect our nature so they want to create an electric car to reduce an oil transaction.

Electric cars are indeed much better for the environment rather than the ones that uses oil and produces smoke which creates air pollution. It will greatly affect oil industry but it will benefit the nature and also the people because they can breathe clean air in highways. Currently the price of oil in our country went up and it is really costly than electric cars.

EV is like mac ... less than 2% in the world.  Roll Eyes

Most big car companies have started producing electric powered models and renewable energy is on the rise. It doesn't look good for oil either way.

Maybe it is, Maybe its not because when majority of the people are using electrical cars we can. it is good for oir environment, some people they dont want an electric car, becuase they dont have a money to buy it. So some people in our country they protest to not enter an electric car.
Electric cars are just starting up which means they are just few on production which we know that it would really be expensive which not all people do have the capability on buying such thing.This would indeed hurt up oil industry but not totally a reason for it to be stopped because not only cars are using oil industry but it do have a big role on industrial machinery which isnt included on such innovation.

For the petrol/gasoline industry maybe, however, not for the whole hydrocarbons industry cause a lot of it is used for electricity generation or by chemical industry. Consider it from the perspective of law of conservation of energy. Electric cars just use another type of energy.

I still don't see a lot of changes happening to the status quo. It will only reduce the profit that is being declared by this multi nationals but not to send them out of existence. Just like the way the train and airplane industry are working concurrently without anyone disturbing each other and the moment all these multinationals are smart about the future they will feature in it. I have read about Shell talking about renewable energy thats them gradually moving away fro dependence on oil.

Yeah it's bad for oil industry but sooner or later we have to replace fossil fuel to renewable energy because of environment problems.

Of course. It is a threat to them of ever the car manufacturer will also creates electric cars because their gasoline,  diesel or any other car fuels will become useless and people will no longer buy the fuel-engined cars because they can save MO eyes if they will use electric vehicles and they could also save the environment from the harmful effects of it. But since now, only electric motor bikes are available so I think it is not yet a real threat to oil industry owners.

Electric cars may be gaining in popularity but the widespread of its production and demand is too little compared to cars that use oil. As of now electric cars isnt that much of a threat to oil industries because of the fact that the majority of the world's population is still leaning on cars that use oil but i guess things will change in the year 2500 where pollution is a threat to humankind.

Of course it is, just imagine if people would start using electric cars. People will not need oil anymore. Oil industry would be dead, and  a lot of businesses especially those oil companies would go bankrupt.
