I'm not taking about reliability. I'm talking about complexity. ICE have a method of converting gasoline explosions to rotational energy which powers the drive and the battery. Electric car have a method of converting electrical potential to rotational energy. Germany is very specialized in making precise part for ICE that just don't exist in Electrical cars. Could they be reoriented for something more? Maybe but not in near term.
