While my current use case for a car would not allow me to purchase an electric vehicle, my future case would. However, I am planning to wait for solid state vehicles. I don’t like how prone to thermal runaway lithium batteries are in their current state. That, and I don’t like the trend towards bigger and heavier vehicles.
Don’t get me wrong. I’m happy to own a large diesel truck for when I need a truck, but it feels like such a waste as a daily personal commuter vehicle. Most of the time, it’s literally me and my spouse. Sometimes we have groceries, sometimes luggage. It’s such a waste of space and energy to be transporting an extra 3000 lbs around
