Oh, and just to pour a little more salt on to the wound.  EV batteries have a rather short life span.  They are made of the same tech as your cell phone battery.  After the first year, they begin to degrade.  And by the 5th year, charge compacity is cut by more than 1/3rd.  There is no warrantee or service plan to cover the replacement of the battery.  So the vehicle owner is responsible for replacing it.  And get this, more than half of the cost of a new EV today is the cost of the battery alone.  Users can expect to pay $15,000 to $25,000 USD to replace a full EV battery.  That's not a typo, look it up.

Oh heck no I can't ever pay that! Man!

Makes me wish these boards had a sarcasm BBC feature.   

Heck I wish my brain 🧠 let me know all the times people are sarcastic as I usually miss it.

AI is even affecting stores and customers having issues knowing what is a real product or not before paying for it:
