For some perspective, West Virginia is bigger than Switzerland.

The Matanuska-Susitna Borough, where I live, is larger than West Virgina.

That may help the QC a little. We had two Employees move from Texas to CA to work for Tesla, Both were “Ideal Tesla Employees”

One is a AGW True Beleiver Fan Boy who probably has $20M in TSLA stock, the other is an Indian America that doesn’t mind living a couple families to a house.

Both will likely come back to Texas when the Austin Plant opens

If what I have been reading is correct, used EVs do not sell. That means that in a few short years Switzerland is going to have a used EV recycling problem.

Not really. They'll be sold in eastern Europe.

I don’t know. I watched enough TdF to see what could happen going downhill.

Size difference: United States vs Switzerland

Switzerland is about double the size of Los Angeles. Add in the mountains where you cannot drive and much smaller still.

—”We have a million more people in Michigan than Switzerland “

And Ev sales are low in Michigan.
That much is a fact.

That said, you are presenting a fallacy.

From wiki:
Any argument that takes the following form is a non sequitur

If A is true, then B is true.
B is true.
Therefore, A is true.
Even if the premise and conclusion are both true, the conclusion is not a necessary consequence of the premise. This sort of non sequitur is also called affirming the consequent.

You could have cited a state with many EVs. Why not?
Please show me the error of my way.

Range varies inversely with temperature. S does charging time.

Unsure about the charging station, but in cold weather areas especially; avoid service stations below the roadway, water runs downhill. You will soon have ice in your tank.

Teslas do ok under the water and have no air filter intake...
