Yes, and of course the elitists ignore the very first speed bump their arguments must face:

What is the fuel for the power plants that produce the magic electricity? By and large, it’s coal.

According to leftists, these are zero emission vehicles. They conveniently ignore the fact that oil was used to product these vehicles. All the plastics, rubber, lubricants, paints come from oil. The machining was done by machines dependent on electricity produced from coal and oil. All the components were produced likewise, and shipped via fossil-fueled transport vehicles.

So they envision a future without reliance on fossil fuels? Try building that electric vehicle solely with solar or wind power, including the components.
