EVs will make more design progress and more charging stations will be available worldwide as more and more people buy them. The EV motors use about 1/3 the number of parts as an IC engine - that means more inherent reliability - EV motors travel SMOOTHLY in a circle - IC engines depend on up and down motion of pistons and sparks to cause chemical explosions. EVs accelerate better and brake better than ICE vehicles due to a lower center of gravity.
.......In general, EVs are a better potential product and will HELP to stop an overheating EARTH. That IS your basic WIN-WIN.
