As the video showed, there's different S curve rates. Color TVs adopted at a much slower rate because there was a suitable alternative.

We have suitable alternatives to EVs, and they're normal ICE vehicles.

The number of variables are so vast that predicting adoption based on innovators (those that are before early adopters, as we aren't even to that stage yet), is guaranteed to be inaccurate.
