Just drove through a flooded creek 3 days ago in Montenegro, it was 80cm deep. Thankfully I was driving a diesel powered vehicle and not an EV. So laugh all you like, obviously you live in Melbourne in a highrise apartment and commute to work on a 4 lane raised highway.

The fact is people are buying EV's mainly due of huge subsidies, when the subsidies stop the party will stop.

Driving and usage benefits.
Additional benefits are afforded to drivers of EVs by many governments and cities in an effort to stimulate EV sales. These benefits may include preferential parking permits in dense urban areas (e.g., City of Amsterdam) or the ability to drive in bus and taxi lanes
and save considerable time during rush hours (e.g., City of Oslo).
Cost savings.
Without subsidies, EVs are significantly more expensive than ICE cars. But in some specific cases, as a result of government subsidies, EV models are cheaper than their ICE counterparts. Consumers looking to benefit from these types of regulations are drawn to EV, because they provide a cheap mobility solution in the recent period of high fuel prices in Europe. For example, in Norway, EVs are more attractive than ICEs on a TCO basis as a result of subsidies that include exemption from purchase tax, VAT, toll road charges, registration tax, and annual circulation tax.

Without subsidies EV's are doomed.
Enjoy your dream while it lasts.
