"crushed" like Slurpees. I think not.
The first commercially available EVs were out in the 90s. The first really successful EV was the Prius, which started production in 97 so almost THIRTY years ago. There is no "crushing" going on, there is a slow adoption by niche buyers. EVs will continue to be like diesel cars in north America - loved by a few but never mainstream.
I've owned an EV since 2018 (along with 5 ICE vehicles). For all the drum beating and hype, they're not making much headway in Canada. Its a cool little car for what it does, but the fact is they're limited by a few killer factors. In order for them to be mainstream they are going to have to a) be cheaper, b) have comparable range to ICE, c) have a comparable 'fill up' time of 5-6 minutes on road trips, d) lose far less range in very cold weather, e) have ubiquitous charging infrastructure and f) make them able to tow trailers a comparable distance. Until all that happens they will continue to be a minority choice for the average buyer.
