We are not at the "beginning" of EV's. EVs have been around for 120 years. Guess what? They sucked then. They still suck.
Good grief. You're really going to compare EVs from 100 years ago? Computer controls, batteries, engineering...this is all new and evolving tech.
Never mind, I can see you're married to the argument.
Make sure you keep my username tucked away because if you're young enough, you will own an EV before you die. Just let me know.
