It also points out the fallacy and lie of electric car companies caring about the environment. They don't. It's just the new thing to sell. Just like every company known to man is parroting sustainability now.

Sure, but it doesn't matter whether they actually "care" about the environment, or just about selling cars, an electric car is still better for the environment.
Now, if you keep buying new cars to keep up with the latest features, that's a problem.

It depends on what happens to your old cars (and they're mileage ratings). Many people are driving more inefficient cars and would upgrade if affordable used cars were available. The market can absorb more than a few yearly upgraders, though of course after a point it is a waste.
