It seems inevitable to me that EVs will eventually be more economical and higher performing that ICE vehicles. That said, we're probably more like 10 years away from hitting that point, and 20 years away from EVs taking a larger market share than ICE.

I've been wrong about all my technology predictions before though (overly optimistic), and I'd like be found to be overly pessimistic on this one.
