Car companies and battery manufactures see this and will do whatever they can to solves these problems as quickly as they can. You also have the states investing in charging stations and people realizing they may never have to visit another gas station. This is eventually going to affect the oil companies bottom line. I don't think the oil companies are evil, they're doing what is in the best financial interest of their company and their stockholders.

Alright, but just WHO is buying and waiting for EVs? Certainly not the masses. Just a guess, but I would bet Californians and other bicoastal elites lead the pack along with young woke people with good jobs.
Also, a visit to the gas station-----3 minutes. A visit to the charging station----how many hours?????
Of course, all that will change in the future as costs come down, ranges go up, and battery life improves.
