I understand that most people just wait for their peers to switch to EV first and they'll only make the move when >X persons around them place an order and confirm from experience that EVs are the way to go. They avoid taking risk with what appears to be "unproven" technology that happens to cost a significant % of their household's wealth.

I've never owned (or needed a car) so I can't speak for myself, but my family and friends are 100% convinced that BEV are the future, and they also have the means to buy one now. They just tell themselves that they must wait for their neighbors to buy an EV first and hear first hand that charging is indeed not an issue before making the switch. It's a chicken or the egg problem and in the meantime, they're fine with purchasing plugins (even though they know it's a worse choice and that the plugin will depreciate faster)

Most people are simply risk-averse and they are enough early-adopters queuing for a Tesla delivery. So EV adoption can't go faster than Tesla can build factories and pump out cars. The early majority will follow suit.
