That's not the point and it's also irrelevant. People don't buy a car because they have a love of gas or electricity; they buy what works and is affordable. Chinese EVs are getting more range, have more software and safety features and are becoming cheaper and cheaper to buy. They are competition even to gas cars now. What form of energy the engine consumes is irrelevant here.

It’s relevant if the drivetrain is part of your identity. People like the vroom vroom. I drive an EV but I’m not about to ban others from driving what they want.

It doesn't have to be part of your identity.

Maybe you live in an apartment where you can't charge overnight. Or don't have many options for fast charging. Or you drive enough that the range is an issue and you don't want to plan around that or have to own a second car for long trips.

There are many places and use cases where EVs work great. And there are many where they do not.

Those are good, actual points against EVs.

I should have added hybrids in my original comment.

They are also sold below cost for a reason. lol

I just bought a new car.

Really wanted an EV, especially a newer depreciated Tesla, but I just can’t get past the idea of what the car will be in 12 or 15 years. My prior car was a 2005 CRV.

Ended up going with a Corolla hybrid. Gets over 50 mpg and travels a lot under electric power. I think chances are pretty good it’ll still be viable transportation after a decade.
