I agree in regards to public transport in cities of a resonable size and between them. Outside bigger cities, it simply isn't a workable solution. Fact is that a lot of our modern society is built around cars. It's not easy to change that.

BEV's will certainly not save the world from climate change, but they are a lot better than ICE vehicles and since we aren't getting rid of vehicles, it's a lot better if they are BEV's. Hate Elon Musk as much as you like (I likely wouldn't disagree with you), but you can't ignore that Tesla arguably has pushed forward the transition to BEV's.
