Better batteries require less frequent charging, reducing pressure on networks. But also, better batteries enable electrification of other modes of transport much more easily. Cars are bad, electric cars are at best "less bad".

Sure, but we have some difficulties to understand that we have to let go some of the comfort we were used to.

And we know that EVs are not for saving our climate, it's for saving the car industry. Don't look up.

All our cars are EV’s now. I cannot express how much more convenient this is for us.

We only have level one charging at home. It’s fine.

The biggest remaining problem is having to go to multiple charging stations during long trips every once in a while, usually because Electrify America says they have open stalls when they do not.

That seems fixable.

EV charge times improved a lot in the last 9 years. Even better batteries would be better, of course.

However, my bigger concern is energy efficiency.

Tesla’s mile/kwh is much higher than comparable cars from the other manufacturers. It’s not clear if the other companies will catch up, since they’re hard-wired to build gas guzzlers.

I agree, sold my car awhile back. It's not really needed.
