I'm personally on board with rentals for the occasional long trip or using and building out public transit. But most people are not. Especially not in NA.

I understand the drivetrain argument. What about a simple generator to recharge the battery on the go? Like the original BMW i3 had. That one didn't take off, but likely in part because it was ugly, too small to be practical, and the gas prices still being very low.




I don't know enough about generators to dismiss that design, it might make sense for some use cases.
