There's not any money in it. The money is in selling trucks and SUVs, at least in the states.

I've had a truck for over 13 years. Including purchase price, maintenance and gasoline, my cost over that period has been $243 per month. That was for a brand new truck. Even if electricity is free, and I bought a similar sized truck at today's prices, there's no way I'd come out ahead in an electric. If you factor in used truck prices of similar vehicles, you're 10's of thousands ahead financially. I recently paid $4500 for a 200k mileage truck, engine should last for another 150k before needing a rebuild, and I can get an entire new engine for $3700 (not including labor). How much are electric trucks going to cost to re-power?

I've done the math even for commuter cars. It never makes sense to buy electric when I can get a 40MPG car for 10-15k new. Batteries need to quadruple in efficiency and be cost competitive, or they're never going to catch on in the US.

I think cities could use good ebikes. Ones that can plug into the high-speed, high amp, chargers. Imagine charging an ebike in 3-5minutes and being able to go 70miles. People in cities would like to have an alternative to public transit and car ownership.

I would ride my bike almost everywhere if I didn't have to get on a street to do so. If there are bike-only roads, I would support this.

I think the future is commuting carts. Small, electric vehicles that aren't on main roads that can cruise 20-30 mph and hold 1-4 people.

There's actually a city in the US that does this! https://www.peachtree-city.org/216/Paths-Golf-Carts. On my places to visit if I ever make it out there.

This is reality in Europe today. The fast charging is totally unnecessary, you just charge it at home/work where bikes are inevitably parked for many hours.

All of the major manufacturers are starting their EV rollout this year. Mercedes is starting with the EQC. Honda is launching their Urban E. Toyota is planning to rollout 6 models over the next 5 years.

This will likely be the decade of the EV where Tesla starts to see some real competition in the space.

We better get some chargers out there. There's at most 2 chargers at places and with more EVs on the road, they will most likely always be taken.
