It’s not inevitable until they get battery prices down.
Nissan Leaf n/a.
Hyundai Ioniq n/a, but will be priced at $44,990 plus ORC.
GM Bolt, n/a but US pricing indicates AUD $55,000 plus import duties etc.
Then you’ve got the Porsche’s, BMWs, Jaguars etc from six figures upwards.
Hyundai Accent $15,000
Nissan Micra $13,490
Toyota Yaris $15,390
This isn’t something that mass production will fix. The batteries are already mass produced in huge numbers. We need the next step forward in batteries for any element of inevitability. Last step forward was the invention of the Li-ion in the ‘70s (by Exxon, for all you oil company haters!).
