>driver of a Tesla Model 3, said they saw a 40 percent range loss when towing a 750-pound trailer.
I've heard reports of Teslas having between 40-60% range loss when driving in winter. Add together cold weather, the heater running, and hauling anything - And the vehicle becomes useless.
Electric motors are superior to ICEs. But batteries are garbage compared to fuel.
Maybe, eventually, we will all be driving electric vehicles. But that will be decades or lifetimes from now. Until then, electric vehicles will remain impractical novelties.
But.... impractical novelties that people will pay a lot of money for. Many people love to show off how impractical they can be.
