Although I am a fan of EVs, probably I won't get one. My 2004 Mazda 3 has only 18,000 miles on it so, considering the little I drive it, for me an EV wouldn't make much sense especially since I already have serviceable vehicles. I put more miles on my two motorcycles but sometimes take long motorcycle trips during which recharging would be exceedingly inconvenient with what is now available.

Extra fast charging is likely to reduce battery life significantly. It may be that part of the solution is a battery exchange system but for that to be practical, there would have to be a limited number of standard batteries. If fossil fuels to generate electricity are phased out, then EVs would considerably reduce air pollution and CO2 emissions.
