The issue is energy density I believe. But they solve the "refuel as fast as a gasoline vehicle" issue.

I also don't think that electric vehicles will supplant more than 60% of the vehicle market long-term (if markets were unfettered).

I don't see any way it will reach 60% unless most vehicles are taken off the road due to the gov't. I bet at 10% the fail will be so extreme it will end.

The dream is to eliminate personal ownership of vehicles for all but the extremely wealthy.

Eventually self driving vehicles will be 99.9% of the market to "save lives" and "increase efficiency"and it will be common to subscribe to ride-share programs where autonomous fleet vehicles deliver workers to work.

This will only happen after the vehicle manufacturers and owners have immunity from liability in accidents involving the vehicles.

Fear not though, you'll still be able to go wherever you want as long as you can walk there, or it's allowed. Unless you are extremely wealthy and can afford the jacked up insurance rates for owning your own manual (steered, which will be the new "manual") vehicle.

Some thought that horseless carriages were just a passing fad, and more than one investment expert thought the Internet was a poor investment. If you don't know what this has to do with that then it's not for you.
