Okay but I am 2 hours from any public charging that’s the point no charging at work or anywhere close that is the point. And there are plenty of gas cars that can go 600 miles not just diesel.
What we need is better charging infrastructure. Lots more L3 stations, and lots more L2 stations at places you’re going to tend to stay at for a while (like hotels and event parking).
Existing range will be fine if we solve this.
Most cars with 600+ miles range in the US are hybrids. There is also one Jag diesel (which apparently is sold in the US). In Europe, there’s things like the Mini Cooper 1.5L diesel, but cars like that don’t get sold in the US due to emissions requirements.
Still won’t make them affordable I got my car for $23,000 until a ev can be bought at that price its a no go for me and no not a hybrid my car just has a 18 gallon tank on it holds allot of gas.
When materials cost plunges and there’s plenty of competition, what else would happen? This isn’t the result of some lab breakthrough that may or may not make it into mass production. It’s a measurable thing the market uses right now.

So in other words:

That’s expected to happen with in the next year or two. The prices of battery metals have plunged.
We shall see because the have been saying that for years never happens
