fairytale fabricated by tech grifters […] the energy density of petrol is still so much higher than a modern Lithium-ion battery, how can electric vehicles be viable competitors? Simple, they cheat. […] we’ve been gaslit […] extra weight makes them far more dangerous in a crash and it means that you’re wasting a lot of energy […] doubling the weight does 16x the damage to the roads

    Prices ARE coming down. You can get a 250mi / 400km fast charging Bolt EV for under $27.5 USD now. And you can get a $7.5k tax credit on top of that in the states. That’s pretty damn competitive, especially given that inflation raised the prices of vehicles.
