Because they cost a fuck load of $$. If you get any minor damage it costs a fuck load of $$$ to fix. The range is limited, it takes a long time to charge even with a "super charger".. The list goes on.

From the post: "Electric vehicles were supposed to be inevitable. Two years ago President Joe Biden climbed behind the wheel of a beefy white electric Hummer to tout his plan to make half of all new cars sold electric by 2030. The following year Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act, which created a bevy of incentives for drivers to buy electric and for automakers to invest in EVs. That set off a flurry of new projects: EV plants, battery-manufacturing facilities, and mining operations began popping up. By the end of 2022 the situation looked promising: More and more Americans were going electric, and soon everyone would be driving an EV, reducing emissions in the process."

At this point the battery technology was supposed to provide the range of ICE and a charge rate of 5-10 minutes. That never developed. That future promise was the justification provided that EVs can replace ICE, showing we simply allow for the market to develop.

It's more confirmed a house of cards entirely predicated upon control of humanity and forced wealth extraction and transfer to hostile nations and traitors within our own borders. At this point, only useful idiots are buying them and largely, only treasonous shills are still advocating them.
