The first Model T had more problems than you could shake a stick at.
When it was eventually commercialized, The 10 gallon tank allowed it to travel about 250 miles. About as far as a charged Tesla EV can travel now.

When the public can charge these things overnight in the driveway, you’ll see a wider acceptance.
