Batteries are already good enough for most light vehicle applications.
If you’re looking to tow a horse float long distances, or drive the Canning Stock Route[1] for fun, sure, current EVs are not going to meet your needs and things like solid state batteries will be helpful.
But this idea that current EV battery technology is somehow inadequate for most people is wrong and annoying.
