Everyone is making an EV these days.

The advances we will see in a decade plus will be driven by competition amongst the auto makers.

Same as we see with MPG driving purchase decisions we will see the same with efficiency in not only range but also in charging.

You'll have lighter cars, more efficient motors, better charging tech.

The impact of an EV that you buy 10 years from now will most certainly be demonstrably less than the EV you bought today.

You will also see growth in another market, PowerWalls.

You can store solar all day and charge at night and never touch the grid.

Current Powerwall 2 can maintain a Tesla off solar alone if you are only driving 100+ miles per day.

It's entirely possible for EV's to not only have zero impact on todays grid but actually have less demand on todays grid a decade down the road.
