I think this is just head in the sand thinking. BEVs are here to stay and are indisputably the future. EVs are already cheaper than comparable ICE vehicles in terms of TCO, and they can be made cheaper than comparable ICE vehicles even up-front. But more importantly, gasoline will only ever get more expensive. The expertise to maintain extremely complex and efficient gasoline engines will only get more expensive. The taxes on burning gasoline will only get more expensive. And as volume falls, gas stations have to spread their overhead across fewer gallons sold, only exacerbating the price increase at the pump. All the while electricity will only get less expensive. Many homeowners will choose to make a small upfront investment in panels and produce more energy onsite than they will ever consume, making their EVs even less expensive per mile. Real-world advances in battery tech and smart grid infrastructure will allow the car to play double-duty as a backup power source for the home, and even triple duty a profit-generating part of the electrical grid. The only limiting factor for BEVs is charging infrastructure. If you have a home you can charge at, and particularly if you have a roof you can put solar panels on, then your next car, or the car after that, will absolutely be an BEV. For those without home charging, we will either need incredible public charging infrastructure, or perhaps the ability for the car to go get itself a charge on its own in the middle of the day/night.
