it isn't just price - they weigh a lot for the range them can provide - the recharge rates even on "superchargers" is not good - the range loss in cold climates is very high, can be a third of your range - charger standards are not aligned I hope we solid state batteries can solve all of these, if not the weight component by removing the liquid electrolytes. Is there really much more that can be done with lithium batteries? I am still a fan of smaller EV range backed by a REX; how that REX is done going forward is up to technology but I don't really want to have to haul a thousand pounds of batteries around just to exceed two hundred mile range in mild to warm weather
