A small light in the dark of all this? Consider that the idea of fully electric cars and huge battery installations all over has major practical problems of many kinds. The most basic among them being that there ain't anywhere near enough raw materials in the whole planet to make more than a tiny percentage of what was intended by the top scum cabal. Dumb asses! Where is all this lithium, tin, copper, cobalt, rare earths and so on going to come from? Do the simple arithmetic. It just ain't happening, man. No f... ing WAY!

Hybrid vehicles though, are booming, and in demand. That is a much better idea. The car market has now woken up to that. Smaller batteries but you can make many more of them because they are not so resource greedy and the vehicles don't weigh double a petrol car. This is where the lithium and the rest of it will go, and there still won't be enough. So prices will rise, maybe before too long.
At the moment there is the train wreck of the accelerating over the falls collapse of the idea of fully electric cars etc. Yes, the emo zealots will kick and scream, but it's a matter of basic economics. If you want to make half a billion electric cars and there is only enough raw materials for 5% of that at most, it cannot work, can it?

But hybrids? The resources will stretch to a lot more of them. Very low on fuel, No refill anxiety. No drain on stretched grids. No range anxiety. Taxi business dream. Motor manufacturers who survive will all swing to hybrid offerings. Plus petrol cars.continue. Hybrids too have their limitations. Towing, for example.
