The Electric Vehicle option is nothing but a ruse.
First, they want to completely eliminate gasoline and diesel powered vehicles.
They have never said they want those millions of cars replaced, one-for-one, with electric vehicles because THEY CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT THAT !
They pretend (right now) you will have the choice of an electric vehicle but will proclaim the EV is not practical, is dangerous in terms of battery fires, will be too demanding of the electric grid and can never reach mass numbers due to a worldwide limit on lithium.
AFTER the gas-powered cars are gone, they will then prohibit electric cars.
No personal vehicles equals no personal freedom.
That is what is REALLY being planned.
I recall when electric lawnmowers were first introduced, neighbor lasted one summer with it complaining all the time before he was back to using gas powered the next summer.
