Ya, the BEV future seems pretty cool. And we really miss our Nissan Leaf. But there definitely seems to be a lot of hurdles to overcome first before that utopian future comes to be, or before I buy another BEV. At best I think a cheap BEV for around town while keeping an ICEV for long trips makes the most sense. But I don't see a Bentley, Volvo or Tesla being a cheap EV for around town any time soon. And even a used Leaf seems just out of my price range.
