There are a number of disadvantages too. Electrical energy does not come from nowhere, you have to make it, and it is costly (energetically) to convert and store electricity vs outright use of fossil energy. That, and lithium being expensive. Can the world transition to EVs with current battery technology? Do we even have that much lithium? Maybe they will finally make a breakthrough in controlled fusion, our only hope. It won’t produce more lithium though. Sodium instead of lithium? The same chemical group -g- for now it seems ramped up production will rapidly make evs unaffordable due to lithium cost in lithium batteries. Lithium mining is not clean either.

I always thought hybrids are a better option.
