Tbh I see the opposite. Try not cheerleading EV's, and point out that yes, while they bring some advantages overall the 'progress' is incremental rather than revolutionary, and you'll get branded a 'Petrol addict' or an 'oil shill' on HN. My nr.1 beef with cars is the noise pollution and the excessive space taken by them. Neither of those are changed by EV's. (An EV makes just as much noise above 35 km/h, and now they have them even making fake noises below that speed).

> My nr.1 beef with cars is the noise pollution and the excessive space taken by them. Neither of those are changed by EV's. I feel like EVs do actually solve part of the noise problem. Yes a EV at speed makes just as much noise as any other car due to tire noise dominating at those speeds. However You've got no idling noises, nor revving noises when taking off. And that's leaving out edge cases like how they introduced electric city buses here and those make wildly less noise than gas or diesel buses. Never mind the lack of gross exhaust fumes.
