The use of the word “believe” is interesting. Why not “like” or “want?”

I don’t want an EV right now. Is this article supposed to change my mind?

And why do EV “believers” always feel the need to shove EVs in our faces? Is it not okay that some folks don’t like or want them?

You do realize that Electric technology is improving at a rate of 13-15 pct every year....double the rate of gasoline engines.
Don't forget that the first generation gasoline engines used to break for every 10 miles.

Humans will merge with AI and become super humans in future.

Batteries are still built from rare minerals, much of its sourced from China. Anyway, just wait until we have war with China, we will be back to gasoline cars in a hot minute.

Watt? Are you claiming that lightning has no power? Life derives its power from electricity. Coal, natural gas, and fuel oil are all based on chemical reactions that are entirely derived from electromagnetics. The only one that isn't is nuclear power, but that is used to generate electricity. In a sense then they are all electrical.
