BHM: How long have the libs given us before we all are forced to drive an EV.
Right now, that would be forever. The federal government currently has no plan to force you to drive an EV.
The Biden administration has an aspirational 2030 EV goal of 50% for new car sales but it's only a goal. And the EPA has yet to finalize future emission standards.
BrerBear: Cold weather! So it works well EXCEPT when cold hits? Might kind of limit the market for the machines in the world to drivers who live within ~~~35 degrees of the equator??? It doesn't help that trips exceeding 300 miles will likely demand that drivers stop for an hour or two while they 'tank up'.
Not cold weather, -16 degree temperatures. Even regular car batteries sparking internal combustion engines have trouble at sixteen below zero (ten below on the lake front).
In 150 years, Chicago has seen just 208 days drop to or below -10 degrees.
But enjoy your silliness.
