They don't work without massive incentives and mandates. The entire EV production chain, especially if it's produced here, is heavily subsidized and then most of the them are getting a direct to customer tax benefit. Without these subsidies, hardly anyone would buy EVs, probably just Tesla and maybe a few other odds and ends.

The bottom line is that BEV's are regressive, they were popular in the late 1800s to early 1900s until they got their asses kicked by gas and diesel. The best part, the reasons that BEV died out back then are THE SAME reasons they're going to die out now. Cost, range anxiety, lack of charging stations, and serviceability.

I'm not against alternative fuel vehicles, but if they can't stand on their own without massive subsidies, they need to go away.
