If i remember correctly, in the beginings of the «automobile era», electric cars were the norm, before petrol took the lead. Imagine if we had more than 100years of technological advancement (and fundings) in batteries and electric motors/cars !

@sidney, 2035 is still in 15 years, enough for someone tho postpone or suspend this (cf. US environmental legislation)

The generally accepted timeline for Electric and Fuel Cell cars is 10-15 years...discussed often at ceramic conventions (membranes and electrodes for energy storage and fuel cell operation).

fully off I.C.E. in 10-15 years...and has been so for the past 20 years...

Yes, I remember that in the early 1990's California had a law mandating that 10% of the cars sold, from 2000, on, would have to be zero-emissions, thus some manufacturers developed cars such as the GM EV1. CARB was forced to drop the requirement, as OEM's were not willing to comply with it.

But, nowadays, with the push towards de-carbonization of the transportation sector, it is a different story. Major OEM's are on the record that they are no longer investing on R&D of ICE's and pushing forward with battery technology so they overcome the range anxiety syndrome of EV buyers.

An interesting subset of the DNV GL Energy Transition Outlook is the chapter on Electric Vehicles; it is available @ Electric vehicles

Let's hope we will be able to follow these predictions. And that the SUV trend will stop, along with the (too) big (and powerfull) engines (one of the few critiques i can make about tesla is the power offered by their models, 0-100 in 3 secs is crazy fast, and 100% not necessary).

Good video @ Jay Leno's Garage re: a 1914 Detroit Electric he's resto-moding (link below) to incorporate the latest induction motors, Li Ion battery pack etc..a fast mostly wood antique EVs are good....RE: RIP ICE vehicles...true, but like the ADAS/AVs many many of the self proclaimed auto cognoscenti have been frothing at the mouth about it is many years away from widespread adoption.....a large infrastructure transformation must occur. Seems like yesterday, but really it was 2014/2015...NVIDIA, et al were declaring the ADAS/AV Belle Epoque was upon us.

Would love to see the 500 mile range...that, indeed, would be a game changer if true.
Even 400 mile range in real world use would be quite an accomplishment.

Not while the motos "Follow your dream", "Realise your full potential", "Pursue the [material] happiness", "You are special" and so on are pumped and taken up.
