Another point of view. Buying an early EV for any reason increases confidence that their maybe a market, which encourages investment for cheaper better EVs, which grows the market, which encourages investment in cheaper better EV designs and manufacturing technology, which grows the market and so on. By 2035 the price and performance of EVs will be so compelling that more than 50% of vehicle sales will be EVs. This will encourage more engineering investment in cheaper better EV which will grow the market. By 2045 80% of vehicles will be EVs, gas and diesel sales will have declined by 90%, most miles will be by EV, the few remaining gas and diesel vehicles become weekend hobbies.
