Not to despair, though. EV's will be ready to compete around the same time Nuclear Fusion becomes commercially viable, on a continually rolling 20 year window!
But I believe people can and should be able to buy and drive EVs if they fit their lifestyle choices, and I believe manufacturers should be free to produce and sell them without government subsidies from my taxes. There are a lot of people to whom and EV makes sense (those who also own an ICE vehicle for long trips, those who only drive a short distance each day and can recharge their car at home, that kind of thing)
I love the concept of EV technology, but doing it without having the underlying infrastructure and energy generation and transmission capability in place, or for STUPID and FAKE reasons such as "protecting the environment" or "reversing or stopping "Climate Change" is a totally abhorrent action.
