The biggest obstacle to uptake is not cost, it's range paranoia. People believe they simply must have a minimum range of 250 miles despite never doing that in a week. But hey, that's ok. Nobody has to buy an EV, ICE cars will be around for decades yet.
I'm not so sure that ICE's are going to be around for decades to come, I believe petrol will become so expensive with a reduced delivery network...on much lower volumes, with car manufacturers not supporting the ICE much beyond the new car final warranty period after 2030 cut off, The ICE service and repair industry will diminish quite quickly there after. Just look to what is happening to the M3W, production has only recently stopped but already availability of spares eg S&S do not look promising............
