The ONLY way for an all electric transportation to exist would be for either a surprised invention or a gift from an interstellar race of a power supply that is the size of a D battery but can make your car travel at least 1000 miles.
Or something from a century ago when Tesla proposed wireless transmission of energy, but then you would still have to pay for it.
Who knows, maybe a mr. Fusion is out there, but giving it to the masses would disrupt the economic chain of taxation.
we will see a re-emergence of steam vehicles even if they burn cord wood before we will se an all electric utopia.
Because madmen and zealots control the fossil fuel AND they are sabotaging electric solar and hybrid automotive companies.
Lived in AK from 1980 to 2004. Why would Australia be better?
Unless you lived in Anchorage? Then I understand. Or you need heat? Then I REALLY understand.
I’d like an electric vehicle to plug in at night and get to the park and ride each morning. There are a bunch of problems, even here in Virginia the car would be cold (I have no garage) and I’d have to plug in an electric heater each morning for a half hour before I left. Ideally I would heat it with wood like I heat my house, but like you said, I’d be better off with a steam vehicle.
“Because madmen and zealots control the fossil fuel AND they are sabotaging electric solar and hybrid automotive companies.”
huh, nobody from the fossil fuel industry is “sabotaging electric solar and hybrid automotive companies”. Heck, they do that all by themselves.

Kind of like the old Stanley Steamer?
I remember seeing a made-for-tv movie on the life of Howard Hughes.
In one scene he has his engineers build a car run on steam, but they don’t have enough space for the pressurized steam so they place pressurized containers in the door panels.
Hughes is not happy with the design. He takes a long pipe wrench and says to the engineer,
“Think of this wrench as a Chevy heading straight for your car!”
He then throws the wrench at the steam auto door and pow! scalding steam everywhere! The occupants would have been boiled alive.
I once dreamed of inventing a “chemical power generator” that would power a house or a car for a year on a chemical charge. The dream was awesome, at first.
Then came the anti-trust laws, then came protests from laid off gas and electric company workers, then entire countries trying to back engineer my product and make their own. The came regulations and new taxes....
So before I woke up I had gathered 40 energy/oil corporations from 15 countries and sold them parts of the company and rights to produce their own CPG for a big chunk of cash up front.
Then I paid off Costa Rica and recieved some sovereign land from them and lived the rest of my life as king over my own tiny kingdom, refusing to join any international organization and stuff.
Yes.... I have strange dreams like that
