Electric cars are better than petrol cars for sustainability, but both are bad long term. While I generally feel fewer cars overall is the goal, incremental improvements to cars don't hurt. Electric cars have long had a reputation of being slow, golf cart like, and generally a silly idea. Tesla snapped that perception a bit, but built the idea that electric cars are for tech bros and bougie folks. Cars like this help break other reputational barriers to the adoption of EVs. Someone sees this and it puts to rest the idea that EVs are slow or ugly necessarily.
