People keep saying this, but when I’m buying a 40k car I want to be able to go shopping and cross country with my family. The fact that I’ll only use it for the occasional family trip is irrelevant. The point is my current ICE car does both things without any worry. If EVs want to win they need to be better than the ICE counterparts.
I want to reduce emissions but you’ll never get adoption of something that’s objectively worse. If I have to worry if it will start in the winter or reach the next town on my trip, it’s a non-starter. And that’s even before we get to the insane prices of new cars.
