Fundamentally, electric vehicles are a huge mistake. It makes much more sense to power a vehicle with magnetism. I don't know why we (humanity) is going down this path.

What do you mean? An induction motor uses magnetism.

I got downvoted.

Why should I waste my time explaining this? It's not worth it.

All I will say is electric vehicles won't work as a primary means of transportation.

You make bold claims and present no evidence. If it's worth expressing the sentiment then surely it's worth making a convincing argument.

What do you mean “won’t work”? Already (hundreds of?) millions of people are using electric vehicles as their primary means of transportation.

BRIO train cars connect to each other with permanent magnets. Not sure that's the best system, but there it is.
