You tell me that Electric Vehicles are good? Now, PROVE IT.

I remember a joke where God had a bunch of animals lined up -- giraffe, monkey, lion, turtle, rabbit... He said, "We're going to find out which animal is the best. First one to the top of that tree wins!"

Point was that each animal is uniquely adapted to do certain things very well. Of course the turtle finished... DNF.

EVs are ideal for certain folks. They are not even in the running for others. There are newer battery chemistries that dramatically reduce charge times with like 3X the range of the current generation, cost 1% of the current Li-Ion to manufacture, and non-toxic/non-flamable (Lithium Sulphur as an example). Oh, and they will start production in 2025 when the factory is finished.

If EVs never evolve, if technology remains stagnant, then EVs are going to play a minor role in the future. However, if the ICE remained stagnant, today's EVs would already be superior.

I'm enjoying watching the innovations unfold that make EVs more viable. I work with electronics for my day job, so I get regular news feeds & magazines. Agreed, they still need work, but the OEMs are funneling their traditional ICE R&D money into EV research now. You can look at the technology of just 5 years ago and see quantum improvements. It will get better.
