The incumbent solution (ICE) gets 500 miles of range on a 5 minute charge with 5 year old storage, when it is 5 degrees F. You can wave your "subjective" wand

The incumbent solution (ICE) gets 500 miles of range on a 5 minute charge with 5 year old storage, when it is 5 degrees F. You can wave your "subjective" wand and dismiss this, but new solutions are always compared to the current one.
Here's an example of what happens when the reality of the insufficient range of a Tesla kicks in:

I think it would be great if EVs would be successful, but don't tell me they're equivalent when they are not. By the time my ICE is down to the range of an EV, it's time for me to fill up again. The short range of the EVs is just unacceptable.
I'd be totally willing to buy an equivalent EV, but the current crop of them are not equivalent, and they cost a lot more.
