The problem is prices. People want to buy EVs but they cost nearly twice as much as conventional cars, it's crazy expensive (which to me smells like racket by the car companies, China has been doing it much cheaper and from what I hear, which good quality too)... it's a bit more competitive in some countries where the government give really high bonus for people buying EVs (Sweden was giving like 50,000 SEK bonus for each EV which was just enough to make it affordable for the richer people, but without that bonus only taxi drivers, environmentally friendly people who believe EVs are really great for the environment - despite their manufacturing being less than green - and people who drive a lot and can save a lot on fuel can justify going for EVs - and as a result EV sales fell for the first time in decades last year).
