I don't know if its the cure for cancer. But zero external heat is why EV will take over.
We can debate the enviroment and batteries as though oil refining and coal have zero impact. We can debate battery technology and the grid but at the end of the day the EV gives impressive performance with minimal heat/energy wasted.
No exhaust heat and no radiators or fans trying to cool the engine.
That efficiency makes EV a game changer. Tesla has shown it can be done.
Now that we can propel something with zero/minmal heat loss the world is going to change.
Note all auto makers have proclaimed they will be converting to EV sometime in the near future. By All I mean: VW, Ford. Chevy , BMW, Mercedes, Audi, Honda.
