The fuel economy standards driving EV growth aren't going away and are only getting more strict in the majority of the world.

We're saying the similar things, just from different ends of the optimism/pessimism spectrum.
I've been excited about EVs since the 90's (and built that electric car in HS), so that's a long time to maintain excitement.
I believe we're nearing the end of the "Innovators" phase and entering the "Early Adopters" phase.
While everyone on EV forums get excited about new models that are sold in tiny numbers in select markets, I've been maintaining that Toyota is my indicator of when to get excited. Toyota is announcing new EV models, so time to allow for some excitement.
