re: GM delays start of EV production at Michigan plant due to lack of demand

Except for ICE vehicles the ceiling for improvement is much higher because the energy density available in a gallon of gasoline is still vastly higher than what EV's have available.

Know of any major breakthroughs in the pipeline? You must, if you think there is much more room for improvement. But again you show your bias by not considering improved battery chemistries and design.

At this point, the only way to get a significant improvement in efficiency from ICE is to build a hybrid.

No, I just have a better STEM education than you and I don’t buy into the bullshite wank you peddle.

Electric motors are better for driving vehicles in literally every single way. Power to weight, efficiency, control, every way. You know that, though. But to pretend that battery energy density by volume and by weight haven't improved in 20 years is just silly.

If advancement stops on all fronts right now, EVs are already on par with ICE for many millions of people. They get the job done at an agreeable price with no sacrifices for their usage (in fact it's more convenient in many cases). But advancement has not stopped, and there are so many avenues for improvement that it should be exciting for anyone with a STEM education. You however seem to be stuck in a rut, wallowing in hate or fear or something.
