WO the tax credits - no one wants these things, especially in colder climates.

I’m not anti-EV. I ride E-Bikes all the time. They’re great especially for hills.

The problem for cars has been and still is the battery, which for a vehicle the size of a car is still 1000lbs.

Fairly expensive to replace...

They don’t offer you anything new from a driving standpoint. For most, a car is a way to get from point A to B. Who cares if it’s an IC or an Induction motor under the hood?

Unless there is a brand new technology to power the motor, I don’t see EVs completely replacing Gas.
