There needs to be a legitimate reason to buy an EV before there will be a serious market impact. It's really that simple. Engineers are working really hard to make them legitimate contenders with 130 year old combustion engine vehicles and they are making steady improvements. But in the case of the EV, it's even more complicated because they are dependent on that magic box on a wall, pole, or in a garage that's going to charge it. Around here in Southern Ohio, a new to the area retailer called Sheetz is building 15 new GASOLINE stations at their expense to fulfill the need of gasoline and diesel customers. Do you see private investment in the Trillions that need to be spent to rebuild the entire US electric grid to charge electric cars? I haven't. I think there will be significant push back when all of us are going to have to pay to charge our rich neighbor's electric cars and trucks. As Tom V has stated, this deal isn't going to happen overnight. IF it happens at all, it will be a decades long process. There will be plenty of bumps along that road as well. Tesla's burning to the ground on the highway, Ford halting production of the Lightning truck to address issues, year's long delays of delivering promised models, new start-up electric vehicle companies going bankrupt before producing a single car despite huge government incentives. This is just the beginning.
