Ann: Rincon Lithium Project - Progress Update, page-165

This right here is the reason I first invested in lithium. It's essentially government mandated money printing. Add to that the fact that the cars are better in almost every aspect (faster, safer, cheaper to run, better for the environment, simple with minimal moving parts to break).

Maybe this is just my inner 'soccer mum' talking but if you look at most people's driving habits, an EV, even as they are now, is just fine. The cars will continue to get better, prices will come down and second hand ones will filter through more and more. As more people see them and get to ride in they they will realise this and once the sheep are on board, it'll be all over for the ICE. Even a few years ago I thought the targets set by governments weren't ambitious enough and as long as charging infustructure keeps up and there is no critical failure of electricity grids (more nuclear please), I think these targets will be absolutely smashed.

Sure some people who drive extremely long distances in remote areas or need to tow things large distances may not find a suitable EV for many more years, or maybe never (another technology? hydrogen for long haul?), but these people represent a small portion of the world's population.
