Essentially a pure EV auto, while it has lots of positive points, is an auto that can't do everything that a current ICE auto can. There are ways to mitigate that. If an individual or family has multiple vehicles, maybe their usage is such that they're OK with one of those vehicles having a potential range limit. Maybe longer distance needs are sufficiently rare that renting a car for those times isn't unreasonable. An EV probably isn't right for you if you can't charge it at home.

None of that means that there isn't a market for pure EVs. But each limitation makes it less suitable as a truly mass-market vehicle and makes it more likely IMO that various types of hybrid designs will be more popular in the mainstream.
