Jerry Seinfeld, the master of observational comedy, has found a new target for his wit: the global transition to electric vehicles. During a stand-up performance, the comedian expressed his disdain for the EV movement, dismissing the current trend as bullshit
.
Seinfeld, known for his meticulous attention to the absurdities of modern life, focused his critique on the loss of the traditional driving experience. He highlighted his preference for the roar and mechanical soul of internal combustion engines, contrasting it with the silence of electric motors.
“It’s just bullshit.” Jerry Seinfeld, Comedian
The comedian suggested that the shift toward electric cars strips away the passion of motoring, effectively turning vehicles into mere appliances
rather than machines to be enjoyed. This commentary reflects Seinfeld’s long-standing appreciation for classic craftsmanship and his tendency to challenge contemporary societal shifts.
The critique adds another layer to the ongoing cultural debate surrounding the automotive industry’s pivot toward sustainability, as Seinfeld leans into the nostalgia of the gasoline era. For more on the comedian’s take, see the original reporting via Expressen.
