Can you find a ICE vehicle from my Ioniq 6? This is snap from my commute this morning in Sugar Land, TX and not CA. 3 Teslas on the right and a Fisker Ocean in front of me. A decade+ of change . My first EV was a Leaf in 2011 and with hardly any EVs on the road. Now, I see them with increasing frequency even in TX. Irrespective of slight slowdown in adoption rate, I see the EV trend is already set in motion. We just need 3 more things to accelerate: a) Low cost b) Better charging infrastructure c) V2G and V2H to improve the value proposition All happening but maybe not fast enough

It looks like all you need is public transport 😃 can you actually drive faster than on a bicycle at this conditions?

7moYou need something else too. As Max Planck stated: “A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.” We need petrolheads to let go of the past and embrace the future. I was a petrolhead. I loved the sound of my BMW 3.5i 6 cylinder straight in line as it accelerated from 0-100 in 4.8s and 0-200 km/hr in mere 12 seconds. Now I can appreciate the quiet beauty of an electrical vehicle coasting by on a sunny day and know that it is a step forward. I am leaving petrol behind and am never looking back. But I am also still going to critically review when I use an EV. Afterall it is better for the environment to drive an EV, but let us not fool ourselves, they are not good either!
