...that goes through brakes and tires faster because it's significantly heavier. ... that's still limited in where it can go by lack of charging infrastructure. ...that might explode if you charge it while it's cold.

Yeah, EVs are the hydrogen fuel cell scam all over again. It was all just a big bail out to Detroit and 10 more years of not doing anything real to get away from petroleum.
