If you buy an EV expecting it to have the range of an ICE vehicle you had false expectations , the biggest benefits that we were not expecting , is the ease of charging , and the handling and instant acceleration - negatives - none with the proviso tire wear may be higher - yet to see

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.
