Electric vehicles have been around for over 100 years. Unfortunately batteries power them.Until this changes electric vehicles will never replace internal combustion. For now the hybrid is a happy medium and they do work well. Once Kirk beams down with the dilithium crystals we can all embrace electric power. Or not..
We the common people are basically not getting a choice in this area.
The bourgeoisie, that are running this side show are forcing EV on us.

My daughter and SIL in California have a 2017 Nissan Leaf they use for a 25 mile daily commute - they charge it at home from 11 pm to 7 am. In 3 years, no problems of any kind. And no maintenance beyond tire rotation.

Not all. Fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV) are available.

When they need a battery they will bring about they weigh.

“They” are not going to have electric cars. EV’s are for the lower class. Mass transportation will be for the masses they are pushing into the cities.
They can’t fix crime, the economy, SS, Medicare or anything else yet they think they can change the weather.
If so, make it 75 with 40% humidity worldwide.
When the storms, hurricanes and tornadoes continue, they will say “we need more money”. It’s always more money will solve everything.
And the band plays on……

Sounds awesome. A car that's a brick for eight hours a day that can go twenty-five miles. With batteries that are made of materials that can only be mined in very limited areas of the world and are prone to fires. That require burning of fossil fuels for recharging. Can hardly wait to buy one to tow the fifth wheel I'm planning to buy.

Same here, but only if I'm unable to walk and need a Rascal.

Well if they ever do change the weather I hope they do not go too far. I so like listening to the furnace running when the temp hits -25F up here!
I'm gonna get one with an insulated backpack for my barley pop.

Better get rid of the oil burner soon and convert to Duracells.

Talk to the owners down here after Ian . Places were flooded and when the cars got underwater they shorted out and caught fire . It happened quite a few times down here .

How much more does insurance cost for an EV? No one seems to talk about that. I imagine it is considerably greater than for ICE vehicles, but I don’t know.
This SNL parody cracks me up...

They charge once a week, sometimes twice. They figure it costs them 40 to 60 bucks a month to charge, but that varies because they fitted their home with roof solar panels that reduce their electricity cost to 35 to 85 dollars monthly.
Their insurance is about 32 bucks more than their 2019 gas car (about the same retail value).
It hasn't exploded and burned in the past few years.

If I had a 25 mile commute in California, I'd get a motorcycle.
