    IMO you dont understand that its not a matter of "either/or"..that is
    either an ICE or a BEV.

    Mr Market has already spoken with the following mix:
    -more fuel efficient ICEs
    -Petrol & diesel hybrids
    -PHEVs
    -BEVs

    The 2 transitional vehicles from ICEs to BEVs are
    the Hybrid & the PHEV , both of which have now established
    their respective market niches...the Hybrids in Taxis etc where
    range/recharging time is critical & the PHEV where the
    average daily round trip is less than 50 kms.

    So IMO, to emphasise the extremes (ICE vs BEVs) disregards
    the transitional Hybrids & PHEVs which IMO are crucial to a smooth
    transition over 15 years (average life of an ICE) from IVEs to BEVs.
