EVs are not disruptive technology. The are the functional equivalent of an ICE car. The difference today is that an ICE car is less expensive and more versatile than an EV. ( I know, I own both)

EVs will take over when:
1. They are less expensive than an ICE
2. Charging infrastructure is available to make them work for people that can't charge at home

Governments can put their finger on the scale to speed the transition like they are doing in the Netherlands.
