FYI, ‘Electric cars pollute 7x more and the batteries need to be replaced in 7 years’ is completely false and part of the Right’s narrative.. I’m guessing neither you nor Sats have ever owned a fully electric car.
What is better?
1- Electric motors are far superior to gas in efficiency
2- Electricity is way more flexible, there are 10+ was to produce it including solar on your rooftop. (Not just coal) you an OPEC fan? Do you know one where your OPEC support is going?
3- Speed will blow away any comparable gas car
4- Electricity is cheaper than gas, even if from the ‘coal’ grid
Don’t forget there are narratives from both sides.
