EV sales growth flattens. Time for hybrids to shine?

Sales growth in electric vehicles, led by Tesla and BYD has long suggested the end of gasoline and diesel fuel in the transportation sector. While fuel cells are a viable clean option, lower costs in battery production have made pure electric vehicles the sales leader in green transportation.
But can the momentum of early adopters be maintained? Market surveys suggest that EV sales growth is flattening, as MSRP’s and a lack of public charging infrastructure dampen demand.

I suggest revealing the median distance between charging stations in the various counties and states.

@JSFGuy --- What maintenance exactly? Oil changes? Timing belts? Water pumps? Fuel injectors? Spark plugs? Oil filters? Head gaskets? Radiators or radiator fans? Turbo? Exhaust manifold? Muffler? Catalytic converter? Transmission? Oh yeah...😅

EV not ready for prime time. Put them on ice for now until the battery efficiency comes up and loses some weight as well. The only one I would consider is a 2nd generation Nissan leaf.

The EV has a shelf life big time, they are dying on the vine, they couldn't give them away at this rate, the maintenance and facilities required just won't do it.
