Such a huge change to long established practices and theoretical improvements in one form or another needs careful management and strategy.

In this case the benefits are glossy guesswork, and there is no proof whatsoever that EV’s entirely are necessary from a survival point of view. So, a doomsday panic is induced. Net Zero?

In the final analysis the assumptions of Armageddon are not proven. The difference in output of dangerous gases in the manufacture of cars from the old to the EV's is exaggerated and the costs are ridiculous.

Major factors in the production of the vehicles are minimised and when there is a need to create a new religion, what better justification than the survival of the human race? If ever there was an industry built on false dreams....

We just might be about to reach the point where the hype gets replaced by hope.
