10 years after that you will have replaced half of the cars on the road with EVs.

So yeah maybe more than 20, but wayyyyy sooner than 75. Most on this website will see it happen.
That all happens if EVs sell as well as ICE does now. EV sales could very well tank depending on price and charging availability and electricity cost. And if ICE is left alone and not made impossible to own and operate.

Imagining the EV future as if it already happened is way too premature. It's not inevitable as many would prefer everyone else believe. GM's plan doesn't make it so for everyone.

The manufacturers may find themselves producing more units than the system can accommodate and more than the car buyers can afford or want.
