>fast as fuck
They accelerate fast and that is the only reason the ev community thinks acceleration is so important. Plenty of reasonably priced ICE cars accelerate as fast as needed. It's like getting a car that goes 190 mph. Yeah cool but who cares when your driving on streets with a max speed limit of 70 or so? 0-60 in 3 seconds is neat but it's not a game changer
>cheap as fuck
The opposite but whatever. EVs sell at a huge premium compared to ICE cars
>less moving parts
This is a good thing if it means less repair but insurance is more expensive for EVs because they cost so much more to repair / distance travelled
>more reliable
Battery range is dependent on temperature. Under a certain temp and range degrades. Even colder and they won't charge. These are temperatures that are common in winters here and people leave their EVs at the charge station and uber home. LMAO
>you can fill up your car at home
If you live somewhere it's feasible to do so. EVs are great as a second car if you have a house you can charge them at. In an EV only future how do you plan on providing overnight charging for everyone with a car in a 30 story apartment complex downtown?
They are not cool because they are completely dependent on a battery pack that can fail and totals your car if it does. They are heavy which means extra tire wear, extra road wear, extra energy requirements. They are completely controlled remotely by the make who can force auto updates or remove features and can see everything you do and require you link your phone to them to get even more out of you. They are pushing the subscription model to cars. They are full of dumb tech that isn't useful for driving.
