Imagine we lived in a world where all cars were EVs, and then along comes a new invention, the "Internal Combustion Engine"! Think how well they would sell: A vehicle half the weight, half the price that will almost quarter the damage done to the road. A vehicle that can be refuelled in 1/10th of the time and has a range of up to 4 times the distance in all weather conditions. It does not rely on the environmentally damaging use of non-renewable rare earth elements to power it, and use far less steel and
other materials. Just think how excited people would be for such technology, it would sell like hot cakes!
It happened in the 1900s - Jay Leno explains it beautifully as he demonstrates his Detroit Electric on his YouTube channel.

You can argue that the first Land Speed Record holder was electric.

If you are going to venture into the the outback in Australia, best be a bit better prepared than this comment suggests
