Next generation (2025, 2026+) BEVs will be the tipping point for the auto industry.
When BEVs have 500 mile+ per charge capacity, charging infrastructure becomes abundant, and 350kW+ charging is ubiquitous (<15 min recharges), there will no longer be any value proposition for ICEs whatsoever (outside of hobbyists).
Amazing how fast the change is happening.
Agree or disagree?
IMO range is not a huge issue today. Right now the problem is a lack of diverse options at reasonable costs. Poor RELIABLE public charging for non teslas. And I think enthusiasts forget how long it takes for regular folks to become comfortable with new technology. As people ride in EVs and have more friends and families with EVs they’ll continue to normalize and demand will grow.
Borrowing rates are also an issue right now which can be partially mitigated by more affordable EVs
