If 'greenhouse earth' is googled up, one will find that roughly 80% of earth's history is spent in such periods where CO2 levels have been 2,000 ppm.
As such, EV's are just a solution looking for a problem.

Well there is that pesky thing about the limited supply of oil in the ground.
Also you need to keep a global view. In China, the large cities (I think they are all large) pollution is HORRID. Just google it. It's bad.
So when the single largest automotive market (30 plus million vs 17 million US) is capacitized and capitalized for EVs, just know that it's coming.
Plus autonomous vehicles really want to be EVs.
ICE won't go away simply because I doubt the government would ever make them illegal. And the simple fact that there are 250 million ICE powered cars in the US means it's a lonnngggggg time before we are an EV market. Heck if the 17 million was a 100% EV it would take 20 years to convert everything.
But as ICEs drop in volume simple Econ 101 says their prices will go up. And ultimately driving an EV is not a horrible experience by any means. It's just powered differently.
Oh and just for fun go look at the videos on line for Teslas vs Camaro or any other performance car. They hold there own.
