Mostly being the mileage range and time it takes to charge. I do several road trips each year where I'm driving anywhere from 4-10 hours a day. Most electric cars now only have a range of 200-350~ miles and the range on my car with a full tank is around 500~. I don't want to have to stop and charge my car for 30 minutes or an hour (or more?? Isn't the charging time now several hours?) once or twice to get to my destination. Do you think charging will be much quicker in 5 or 10 years? How quick? I can't imagine the inconvenience of having to wait around at a charging station for even 30 minutes when it takes me a few minutes to put gas in. https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/biden-set-target-50-evs-by-2030-industry-backs-goal-2021-08-05/ --- "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." - Dr Seuss <cite>Houston posted [p:956815618] in Biden sets...
