I’m asking this without bias. Just genuine curiosity. Cause I don’t understand (hence eli5 lol). Why are they being pushed right now when it’s known that almost all EVs have ranges that are quite low? Compared to the amount of miles one may get with a full tank of gas that is.
Surely they would focus more on increasing the amount of range per charge to match what you can get in terms of gas in a newer gas powered car (closer to 500). Instead of setting laws in place to phase gas out before electric is even fully developed.

I work in the EV industry. I can tell you that the infrastructure can not handle the US going all EV. This is all a political agenda trying to force change. The government is not smart. The smart thing to do is build the infrastructure so it can support the vehicles not the otherway around. We are still a LONG way from long range batteries and unfortunately what people forget to really look at, although EV has clean emissions the amount of pollution (water, air, soil, emissions) is very very very dirty and bad for the environment. We still have a long way to go but need to remove the politics.
