I too have doubts about the cncept of electric cars.
But look at our lives today. Almost everything is battery powered on some level. Obviously our cell phones, our I-pads, our vacuum cleaners.....almost all electric things now run on batteries for some period of time and the length of battery time increases.
As for a car, I would be game. Come home, park in the driveway, plug it in to charge, leave it charging all night.
I do believe it will be the norm within the next five years I predict.

Should work great. Leave it charging all night plugged into your gasoline powered generator 🙄….
The electrical grid will NOT support millions of electric vehicles charging. There are brownouts RIGHT NOW during which they tell EV owners NOT to charge in the evening.
The plan is to get us out of gasoline and diesel vehicles and then to announce electric cars are not a practical alternative.
You will have NO personal vehicle.
Personal vehicles equal freedom. You will lose all freedom to travel in your own vehicle.
Electric snowblowers are all the rage this year!
I think that’s wonderful. Nothing worse than the beauty and silence of a new snowfall ruined by noisy, smelly gas powered snowblowers.
Where is the electricity going to come from? You do know the PTB are planning on using the battery power stored in your car as a source to power homes and factories “when needed”. IN short, you pay for the car, and the electricity to charge it, but the person you are storing that juice for reserves the right to discharge that battery in the “service of others”. It is part of the power “production” they plan for in every green energy bill.
Please, that is exactly what the rats want us to do. That alone should make anyone suspicious of the wild EV claims.
Many electric grids today are stressed. More will be in the future. Do you want your mobility subject to the whim of rats out to punish We the Deplorables?
What if you RENT?
Will there be chargers that can plugin to your house's 15 ampere circuits?
