I still hate cars.
Yeah me too. The problem with electric cars is it feels like they're being presented by the automotive industry, car manufacturers and to a degree drivers as a panacea for the problems that cars present.
All they're really doing is shifting the power generation from micro to macro, which may be cleaner but electricity generation is still far from clean. And it's not going to solve all the other problems cars cause such as speeding, aggressive driving, misguided perceptions that they own the road/have right of way over other road users, killing vulnerable road users, twatty annoying bassy music etc. etc.
Have you got to drive any of these 'EVs'? I don't really get why everyone calls them EVs either, is electric cars too hard to type? Grumble grumble...

If you have actually touched & felt a tesla it feels a bit 'foffa'.
Still riding my Foffa daily. The frame is still fine, I've replaced the headset, the cranks, the freewheel, the bottom bracket (three or four times), the quill stem, handlebars (twice), wheels, brakes, saddle. It's Trigger's Foffa.
Musk is a cunt tho.
early days for electric cars still, battery costs and sizes need to come down, infrastructure is almost there though
If you have actually touched & felt a tesla it feels a bit 'foffa'. A tech-bro would never be able to compete with a scale up of VW/GM/Ford etc.
Polestar is great.
I have been working on on the biggest car brands' EV for last year+. Its been fun. I still hate cars.
