Want to see a lot of EV on the road, come to the Phoenix area. Tesla's everywhere. I would note that we snowbirds come each fall to try and slow traffic down, and each year we fail. Speed limits have been complete thrown out now. I do not know why they even maintain the speed limit signs.
I still think that built in batteries in EVs was a mistake, they should have been swappable. Pull into a swap station and the robot swaps the battery for a fully charged one and bills you for the amp hrs used and sends you on your way in a couple minutes.
I fly electric model airplanes and race 1/10 scale RC trucks. Both hobbies are based on swappable batteries.
Same thing going on the Katy TX area. I can be driving and pretty much spot a Tesla at any given time.
Also I much prefer OS Max gas powered engines for model airplanes.
Yah Vancouver is like that now. Pull up to a 4 way stop and teslas are 3 deep in each direction. And there is one gas station left in the downtown core. Times are a changin.
