I would say it’s the other way around. Only minority of use cases (like in your example, what’s the ratio of people using vehicles in environments like that) have a need for combustion engine. For most people a vehicle that gets from a point A to point B with the distance being 10-50km is enough. And for that EVs even now are more than adequate. It’s just that there’s always this mythical ”long trip” coming that people use as an excuse for the need of an ICE. vehicle.

And the Tesla Model S LR has a range of 402 miles, but it is increasing every year. Lucid Motors is coming out with a car that has a 500 mile range. The "omg range is a problem" crowd is in for a rude awakening when you can go further on a single charge than most vehicles can on a single tank of gas.
