I think of electric cars a little bit like smartphones. I used to leave my old Nokia uncharged for a week. I used to use it in the rain. I used to stick it in my bag and not give a damn about scratching or damaging it. The two main problems that electric cars have are a) image: it's simply not cool to have an electric car. To the majority of people, they're seen as an expensive compromise done to save Gaia and b) they don't offer any obvious functions not achievable by ICE. Electric cars need metaphorical angry birds and social media apps if they're going to smash ICEs the way smartphones did dumb phones.
