And they are probably right that at this point they are more for early adopters. But in the coming few years that will inevitably change.

I don't have a link, but at least in Japan, my understanding is that Toyota will release their first non-hybrid EV for 2020. I'll have to scrounge around to see if I can find something to verify that...
