Has the U.S. electric car market currently become saturated?
Is Tesla cutting prices because there's actually competition now?
These are legit questions.
I've always been intrigued by the performance aspects of Electrics, but other than the looks of the model S no other Tesla models have ever appealed to me.
I still believe that the power and charging infrastructure, and the current EV battery chemistries aren't even close to mass adoption levels yet. Will all these things eventually happen? Probably.
When will Mass adoption happen? Who knows.
Prices, better battery chemistry, and infrastructure are the only things holding E.V.'s back from taking over, But I think we're still a long way from that happening, and I think these price cuts, and other manufacturers electrics reportedly starting to rot on dealer lots, are a good indication that Electrics aren't quite ready for the mainstream.
I'd say EVs have seen a steady growth. There were 800k sold last year. There will be 1.1M sold this year. Probably 1.5 million in 2024, etc. What counts as "mass-adoption" and "mainstream" is probably just some number on the line.
I'd also say while they aren't "right for everybody" they are right for most people with a parking space. It's just most people are hesitant to change their ways.
And yeah, as the tech and infrastructure improves, they'll be right for more people-- though at that point, the incentives will probably disappear.
