This is not easy for me ether.All car companies are headed in this direction.
You can like it or not like it but it is happening.
Steep learng curve.A lot more than just upgradeing battery packs.
You are absolutely right. Electric is the way of the future. I still don’t know if that will be fuel cell or battery, but only one of those is here, now, in any meaningful way. So great for you for catching that train just as it is leaving the station.

I know what electric boost can do on a sport hybrid, and can just imagine what it will be like on a sport-tuned pure electric.

I’ve got no beef with electric, except range and the realities of charging once this format becomes mainstream. It’s autonomous that I cannot stand (though I can see the argument for that as well - just wait until I’m dust for it to happen, please).

I hope that this car is everything you want and expect it to be. And that delivery is as quick as possible. Waiting is never fun, and that’s a long one.

I hope its something better. Electric cars still require fossil fuels to run due to charging via "outlet" and the batteries are highly toxic(maybe theres a good way to dispose of them I dont know about)

PIEV’s perhaps, but not fuel cell.

I'm not getting this car to go green.
In my state that is a bad word.
I live in a state of coal fired power plants and Oil output of a million barrels day.

Just looking at performance.
