and 10 years from now it'll still be 10 years in the future. Advancements in batt tech are glacial and the easy gains have already been found. Yes there are quite a few neato ideas being pumped out there promising the moon in search of investment dollars, but success in a lab or miniature demonstration does not mean it can scale or do so economically. We use ICE because for all it's warts nothing else comes remotely close.Within the next 10 years, we will have the ability to make a 1000 mile range vehicle that can recharge 60 percent of that within 20 minutes. 600 miles in 20 minutes or 300 miles in 10 minutes? Yes thank you!
EV =~ communism. it sounds good in academia, it claims to "solve" all the vexing problems of society, and yet it fails spectacularly every time it's tried. and it's been tried and tried again by ever more zealous acolytes and believers.
I'm NOT saying EV won't continue to expand for a time. But it won't succeed because it simply can't.
