Has anyone forgotten how the conventional car companies pooh poohed all-electric cars as impossible and will be too costly to be viable?
No I don't, but I do remember them saying that they were impractical. And still are for a fairly large segment of the population. Within 10 years, they'll be more practical, unless something else comes along to displace them.
Care to explain why it's still impractical for the "fairly large segment of the population."?
A large segment of the people in my part of the country don't necessarily have a garage, or carport. They park on the street. How do they recharge overnight? Or drive some distance to work and don't have access to recharging while working. Or have to periodically drive long distances without having ready access to charging while traveling. Yes, these issues can all be addressed but in the meantime they are real reasons not to buy an EV. And of course the cost for many of these EV's puts them out of reach for many people.
What works for you may not necessarily work for everyone.
