Agree that the transition needs to be gradual. The capital investment in the internal combustion engine is enormous. Hundreds of millions of cars, trucks, buses, tractors, etc. along with the logistics to support them like gas stations, parts, etc. And how easy will it be for the Third World to switch to electric vehicles, e.g., Africa? They don't have enough electricity now to support their burgeoning populations.

There is no rationale for rapid change except for the green agenda pushed by rabid ideologues.

"Green Agenda" has exactly as much to do with environment as COVID does medicine.

They're both about absolutely nothing but control.

However, if you want some contrary POV to electric vehicles, I'll drop one of the dashcam zip drives from my Montana pickup truck off for your viewing pleasure.

Forty miles between interstate exits, sixty miles between towns of any size, some places on secondary roads where the mailboxes/houses are ten miles apart and don't even ask about those EV Charging Stations.

BTW, now that we've begun Winter here, it's amazing how the vehicles you see on the road are exclusively gas/diesel 4x4's. Those EV's just plain don't hack the program at all.
