Yep. Same here. If it can’t go as fast, as far and cost isn’t competitive I don’t want to hear about it.

And I’m still waiting to see a study on environmental impact of the manufacture and disposal of the batteries. From what little I know its WAY worse than a gas powered car over same lifetime. You’d think the tree huggers would be all over that.

And speaking of tree huggers, something they can’t wrap their heads around is where the other end of that charger cord is plugged in.

Lead-acid batteries have a high rate of recycling. Same is happening for EV batteries. Tesla already has arrangements in place for recycling all their EV batteries to recover their ingredients for new use.

I think the Sierra Club finally admitted that the "other end" is part of the overall equation.
