One thing that always worries me about buying an electric car is the possibility that the rapid technological advances might destroy the resale value of existing models. That sounds like what this VW model might do.
Might even be worse we're on the verge of the big global warming panic. At the same time the current pandemic has been showing that the world under a semi command economy is more resilient than neoliberals gaslighted everyone into believing. And thus governments have a lot more wiggle room than they thought. One might find that the resale value of your ICE car is zero.
EVs are better cars for the majority of people. Once drive out price unequivocally beats ICE, EV adoption will skyrocket.
