Essentially a pure EV auto, while it has lots of positive points, is an auto that can&#x27;t do everything that a current ICE auto can. There are ways to mitigate that. If an individual or family has multiple vehicles, maybe their usage is such that they&#x27;re OK with one of those vehicles having a potential range limit. Maybe longer distance needs are sufficiently rare that renting a car for those times isn&#x27;t unreasonable. An EV probably isn&#x27;t right for you if you can&#x27;t charge it at home.<p>None of that means that there isn&#x27;t a market for pure EVs. But each limitation makes it less suitable as a truly mass-market vehicle and makes it more likely IMO that various types of hybrid designs will be more popular in the mainstream.
