That's your bubble talking, the reality goes in the other direction.

Not really, electric cars and hybrid are really taking off here.

Especially because more and more people have installed solar panels since the Ukraine war increased energy prices a lot. With that they can charge their cars for free.

In the Netherlands delivered electricity can right now be taken off the bill per kWh but in the future this will change, and during sun hours the delivered kWh won't be worth a lot. But using it for charging a car will still mean free fuel.
