they are not necessarily near future if you don't threaten companies and buyers with 2035 ICE cars ban

if we didn't have subsidies and extra taxes on ICE the market would be completely different, EVs still can't compete for anyone not living in own house with FV, even if you would save significant amount of money on each km the price difference would pay itself after hundreds of thousands km, if whole market was not overregulated by EU pushing EVs and trying to discourage people from buying EU produced ICE cars

up until very recently 90% of newly registered EVs in Czechia are registered on company, only 10% of already very small EV market share are ordinary private buyers and mind that's still with benefits like cheaper/free parking for EVs or (up until recently) free highways
