I concur, the push for mass adoption when the tech behind the electric cars are in such an infant stage makes me nervous. On top of that it won't be any better for the environment in countries which still have majorly coal-based power plants.
- adrianN 9y agoIt will be much better for the air quality in cities though.
- bigbugbag 9y agoIt's gonna be a major ecological issue even in countries where the power plants are not coal based, topped with rare earth material related problems.
- Fredej 9y agoThat's true in the short term, but one of them has to be the first to move. Shifting from coal to renewables does nothing for the environmental impact of cars in an all-ICE system. If we get a larger percentage of electric cars, the impact of switching to renewables will also increase.
