I personally think the answer is simple.
We’re simply entering the Trough of Disillusionment phase of the Gartner Hype Cycle. It’ll pass.
IMO range is not a huge issue today. Right now the problem is a lack of diverse options at reasonable costs. Poor RELIABLE public charging for non teslas. And I think enthusiasts forget how long it takes for regular folks to become comfortable with new technology. As people ride in EVs and have more friends and families with EVs they’ll continue to normalize and demand will grow.
Borrowing rates are also an issue right now which can be partially mitigated by more affordable EVs
