Having just spent the last 3yrs working on the most power dense/fastest discharge batteries probably used in any automotive application I've had a glimpse of the future
The technology challenges will be overcome, so will the logistical/infrastructure challenges too but I just can't see the cost to the consumer being anything like affordable for the average income motorist for a long time into the future
I'm not anti-EV but very anti-governments, institutions, companies bull$hitting/forcing the general population of the world down a one way street. There are so many other sectors of industry that need prioritising before car usage regarding their green credentials eg shipping, energy generation, raw material extraction, manufacturing, fashion, agriculture, etc etc
I think the EV revolution is more about keeping the developed world money machine going than any real desire to soften the impact people have on the planet
