Quoting because this is exactly what will happen, it will be easier for me to find it that way.

The desire and interest has shifted towards this EV movement.
|
Interest, desire, and growth of the segment is for basic commuters. AKA cars that suck. There is a projection that US annual EV sales will be 3 million in ~5 years. Those won't be Plaids. They will be econo boxes. Tesla is losing market share quickly even as volume increases. Space daddy has a huge problem on his hands.
There is a reason Plaid is currently the EV king, it's because so few other cars are targeted to meat-heads that only care about straight line speed. Even Tesla sells only a few of them in comparison to their other more boring cars. The ratio is like 1:25. I could buy a plaid today if I wanted one there are several in stock just an hour away and ready to pickup today. They are in stock all over the country. That has been true where I live for almost 2 years.

How many car makers are ditching of even going hybrid and going straight to EV?
|
Cadillac says they will be 100% EV by 2026, Genesis says 2025. There are others, I won't bother looking them all up. They are busy painting themselves into a corner.
