  • Adapt or die?

    The widespread adoption of the CCD killed film cameras. I’m sure there are a small group of film enthusiasts who hate that (in fact I’ve seen videos of people discussing old film rolls and what still works past it’s expiration).

    Why should the electric car be any different?

    If people want to buy them, someone will make them.

    They pollute less (meeting certain mileage requirements over their lifespan), make less noise, require less maintenance (though I recognize replacing a full battery pack is expensive and takes a lot of resources we mine, so more pollution).

    There have been many innovations and improvements since they started to become more mainstream. Further innovation will help reduce pollution from mineables, reduce weight, improve efficiency.
