Also if Legacy automakers don't get there game on they will be out of business hard to think really but as Ford others scale back on EV's other startups are achieving record sales.
As the technology advances and the LLFC (longer, lighter, faster, cheaper) batteries enter the market what PHEV buyer wants to drag an engine around when battery EV's will travel 1000miles and charge in 10minutes.

The below 2 paragraphs some's up for me from this weeks AFR.

There are still EV naysayers but I suspect few have driven a selection of the best new models. After only a few years of serious, industry-wide focus, the EV has in many areas surpassed the petrol-power car, with its near-140 years of development.

There are still improvements needed (less weight, faster charging, lower prices, better infrastructure) but with everyone working on EVs, they should be solved by the end of the decade, or even earlier. Then, for most types of new fossil-fuelled vehicles, it’s game over.
