    Yeah but it's still a fair comment because the cars are too expensive for anyone to buy The battery compared to another car that's too expensive to buy doesn't really make any difference.

    Because the thing about expensive gas powered cars is there's also not expensive gas powered cars. So he's comparing expensive electric cars to variable price gas powered cars.
