Next generation (2025, 2026+) BEVs will be the tipping point for the auto industry.
When BEVs have 500 mile+ per charge capacity, charging infrastructure becomes abundant, and 350kW+ charging is ubiquitous (<15 min recharges), there will no longer be any value proposition for ICEs whatsoever (outside of hobbyists).
Amazing how fast the change is happening.
Agree or disagree?
Do we really need the range if we have the charging infrastructure and efficiency? Personally, I’d prefer a significantly cheaper car that can go 300 miles on a 40 kWh battery and can be easily recharged in 10-15 minutes than something more expensive that can run 500 miles. But maybe I’m in the minority in that I live near a city and barely ever drive more than 50 miles in a day.
