we need to go through a few years of poorish performance till they get it right but already EV are close to ice in performance and past in a few but in 5 years time they will be miles ahead on every level.
sure the infrastructure needs updating but it's a chicken and egg situation and as battery power increases dependency on charging stations decreases. what was once 50 miles on a charge is now 300 miles and will become 1000 miles.. The rate of change is phenomenal

And I find it remarkable that petrolheads are discovering their environmental conscience only when it‘s their turn to criticize EVs

Continuing to burn oil is certainly the worst option.
