If 98% of cars today are ICE and this is implemented, it's going to create a hazardous condition.

Again, it's normal for the unrestricted part of the Autobahn. Unlike the US, German drivers are very serious about Rechtsfahren -- "Keep right".

You’re implying 98% of cars are going to occupy one lane and then 2% will use the passing lane and that’ll be just fine? That’s not very efficient.

This is exactly how the Autobahn works today and it is indeed fine.

When there's a 80 km/hr speed difference (or even 200 km/hr) between the lanes, it's the only way to be safe.

Again, this is normal for the Autobahn. All the bad behaviors you see on US roads (left-lane hogging, passing on the right) will get you an expensive ticket there.
