These are all the same types of issues that faced the move to internal combustion, and they were "solved", mostly in bad ways. Hopefully this time it's done more thoughtfully, but I'm not holding my breath on that front. But, the train has left the station - in 10 (maybe 15) years you will not be able to buy a new gas powered auto.
