    I’d bet there is actually an issue of “taste” and of assets. Boomers? Many have the money to buy cars and lots of them but don’t care about emissions. Younger people? Care but don’t have the money to buy a hybrid or EV

      If, and that’s a big if… If I’m in the market for a car, it would be an EV. Things is, I want NACS, but not a Tesla.

      Ergo, even if I wanted to be interested, I know the timing isn’t right.

      I’m odd and rather specific in my preferences. I’m not saying that’s what it is for even 10% of people. But the market has maturing left to do. Chargers and charging stations being key among them.
