And/or at least right now as far as pure EVs go due to the range issue there's basically Tesla and everyone else. If initial purchase price was not a concern, a 90kWh Tesla would be a perfectly viable primary or sole vehicle for the majority of people. All the others with their 100-ish mile ideal ranges are usable to a lot of people but would be limiting or impossible for many others.

Obviously purchase price is a concern for most people which is a major reason why they're not that common (outside of certain wealthy areas) but I think if 200+ mile EVs were affordable to normal people you'd see them everywhere. Cheap fuel, relatively no maintenance, and the kind of torque that makes a vehicle fun to drive in day-to-day circumstances.
